Counselling Supervision

release date: Jan 01, 1996
Counselling Supervision
"There is without doubt a great need for a practical and theoretical framework through which supervisors, primarily, but also supervisees can negotiate the relationship of supervision." "This invaluable resource book gives a brief overview of the history of supervision and its importance in initial and ongoing counselling training - reviewing both the British and US literature - and brings together contemporary themes and debates within supervision." "The author presents his own linear model of supervision, connecting goals, functions and tasks, and presents and analyses the seven tasks of supervision. A model for the management of the supervisory process is then discussed, outlining a five-stage chronology of the steps through which a supervisory relationship travels. Importantly, the organizational dimension of supervision is studied in detail and a number of supervisory formats (individual, peer, group and team) are evaluated." "The concluding chapter on ethics is an attempt to offer a model of ethical decision-making applicable to both counselling and supervision. It reviews in some detail the various responsibilities of supervisors. An appendix includes the revised Code of Ethics and Practice for Supervisors from BAC."--BOOK JACKET.Title Summary field provided by Blackwell North America, Inc. All Rights Reserved

Catholic Cults and Devotions

release date: Apr 01, 1989
Catholic Cults and Devotions
Michael Carroll is the first to bring psychoanalytic theory to bear on a range of Catholic cults and devotions, including the Rosary, the Angelus, the Stations of the Cross, the Blood Miracles of Naples, the Stigmata, the Forty Hours, the Brown Scapular, and the Sacred Heart of Jesus. Carroll assembles a great deal of historical information that until now has been widely scattered in obscure publications. He suggests why such devotions are absent from the Protestant tradition and argues for a new and more subtle appreciation of the role that Italian Catholicism played in shaping Catholicism generally.
