Being Supervised A Guide for Supervisees

"Being Supervised is a refreshing blend of being both practical and philosophical in approach. As we move through the book, we are introduced to the history of the profession, the 'how to' for supervisees with anecdotal evidence and as we progress, we are invited to reflect in a much deeper way into what thought is, thinking styles, learning, how we learn, all within the context of supervision. On concluding the book, the reader has taken a deep dive into the power and importance of supervision as resource for anyone working in the caring professions." - Louise Schubert, Executive Coach, Group Facilitator, Mentor and Coach Supervisor, Spain

Praise for the First Edition:

'Why aren't there more books for supervisees? This book by Erik de Haan and Willemine Regouin tackles that question and provides an answer to it. A practical, down-to-earth, sensible guide to help both new and experienced supervisees get the most from supervision, this updated text speaks to the modern supervisee. It's the kind of book that I would have loved to have thirty years ago when I first started supervision - something I could confidently give to supervisees to help them be more knowledgeable and skilled as supervisees and more able to partner supervisors on that learning from practice journey.' - Michael Carroll, PhD, Visiting Industrial Professor, University of Bristol

'This book is applicable for individuals in multiple professions, including coaching professionals, organisational consultants, teachers and psychotherapists. Working in an organisational setting as an internal executive coach, I have found this book very practical with helpful instructions for guided self-reflection. Erik de Haan has added a modern twist to this classic work by Willemine Regouin with a strong focus on practical application and easy referencing which lends itself to dipping in and out and makes it suitable for our busy modern lives. I would recommend this book to anyone who starts on the journey of supervision.' - Stephanie Conway, Google Internal Coach and Supervisor

'As a trainee supervisor, this book both terrifies me and energises me in equal measure - terrifies because of all the well-armed supervisees who are likely to present in supervision as a result, and energises because of the potential for such rich working alliances to emerge. If you think that your practice, whatever stage it is at, will benefit from a highly informed, and truly helping hand, don't hesitate to buy this book.' - Camilla Beglan, Executive Coach and Supervisor
