Group Supervision and the Influence of Culture explores key themes in group analytic supervision, highlighting the value of thinking that encompasses different perspectives.

In this book, experienced group supervisors draw on their professional experiences from working with trauma, cross-cultural supervision, racism and shame. Part 1 explores unconscious processes, Part 2 looks at working with difference and Part 3 covers the training of supervisors of groups. Part 4 focuses on managing endings and learning from research how to maximise the benefits of group supervision. Finally, Part 5 explores ethics from a relational perspective, recognising that supervisory ethical practice is influenced by the culture of the day.

Group Supervision and the Influence of Culture will be essential reading for anyone providing group supervision, particularly therapists, counsellors, therapists, social workers, probation officers and healthcare staff who provide or receive group supervision. It will be an essential reference for trainees in group analytic supervision.
