This book provides a comprehensive guide to applying Integrative Systemic Therapy (IST) principles in clinical supervision and training. It offers a solution to the challenges therapists face when integrating diverse therapeutic models.
In today’s clinical practice, training based on single models is insufficient, and many therapists struggle to combine conflicting approaches. This book presents a theory-driven, hands-on method for supervisors to help therapists bridge these gaps and master integrative therapy from a systemic perspective. The first half focuses on IST supervision methods within cultural contexts, while the second half explores the development of both IST supervisors and therapists, with practical, real-world supervision examples throughout.
Invaluable to supervisors in marriage and family therapy, counseling, clinical psychology, and social work, the book equips readers with essential tools to enhance their supervision practice and expand their expertise in integrative therapy.
“This volume, written by systemic therapy integration experts, is an essential guide for clinical supervisors interested in building their competency in IST. Providing both a clear conceptual framework as well as step-by-step guidelines, The Integrative Systemic Therapy Approach to Supervision, is roadmap to customize treatment to help supervisees meet the needs of their diverse individual, couple, and family systems.”
Eli A. Karam, PhD, LMFT, professor, University of Louisville, Kent School of Social Work & Family Science, AAMFT Clinical Training Award Recipient, Host/ Co-Executive Producer – The AAMFT Podcast
“The authors have been admirably successful in achieving their goal of making IST supervision accessible to practitioners from a wide range of professional disciplines and levels of experience. Readers are bound to discover useful examples, whether their goals are simple curiosity or more ambitious levels of integrative supervision. Highly recommended!”
Thomas Todd, PhD, Co-editor of The Complete Systemic Supervisor
“I recommend this book to novices and experts alike. Using IST, the authors walk clinicians through unique ways to integrate the best interventions of various models of therapy. The material is presented in a clear, supportive language, with clinical examples to facilitate trainee competencies and growth.”
