Follette, V. M., & Batten, S. V. (2000). The role of emotion in psychotherapy supervision: A contextual behavioral analysis. Cognitive and Behavioral Practice, 7(3), 306-312.
While much has been written regarding the importance ofemotional expression in psychotherapy, much less attention has been paid to the role ofemotion in clinical supervision. Recently, several radical behavioral psychotherapies have been developed that may shed light on theoretical issues important to the expression ofemotion in supervision. This paper describes the theoretical viewpoints of two such contextual therapies, Functional Analytic Psychotherapy (FAP) and Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT), and applies theframeworks ofthese therapies to the process of clinical supervision.
