This study examined aspects of interpersonal communication in supervisory conferences in a university-based speech-language pathology practicum, through the use of qualitative methods. This article describes the methodology and presents findings particular to students, particular to supervisors, and relevant to the conference as a whole. The findings indicate that discussions about clients included a focus on the interpersonal relationship between students and clients, but that issues involving the feelings associated with the relationship were not a major focus of the conferences studied.
