When I was shopping for a therapist I would ask them if they had a supervisor (because I know that my previous therapist talked about me in supervision more than once). They each said yes. Then one of them told me that they HAD to have supervision. I don't know if it was a state law, or US law, or whatever, but this person told me that everyone I interviewed would have to say yes to my question.

Basically, it is asking for feedback from your collegue(s). It can give the therapist a different view, or propose alternative ways of dealing with the problem, or point out dangers in what is going on.

I always felt better knowing that she was asking - although, in both cases that I knew about, I didn't like the recommendations that her supervisory group made. I still liked the idea that she was getting feedback.
