Online therapy and supervision, a rapidly rising practice in couple and family therapy, has been the subject of a growing body of literature. From its early days, family therapy training has included live supervision, which has typically been conducted by a supervisor and a team of trainees situated on the other side of a one‐way mirror. With the outbreak of the COVID‐19 global pandemic, we—the staff of supervisors at the Barcai Institute in Tel Aviv, Israel—were compelled to find solutions to continue meeting with clients and to provide supervision for family therapy trainees. To this end, we have shifted our live supervision courses (“practicums”) to the virtual arena, adapting the popular application “Zoom” into what we call “PractiZoom.” Based on over 100 PractiZoom sessions conducted between March and May 2020, involving 14 supervisors and 28 therapists‐in‐training and their clients, the article reflects on this pioneering online practicum for the online live supervision of therapists with geographically distributed participants. In this article, we outline our operational methods and adaptations for conducting live behind‐the‐mirror supervision online. Following a short theoretical background, we outline the process of online live supervision, discuss our reflections and those of our trainees on the challenges and possibilities it poses, and offer a number of preliminary conclusions and recommendations.

The primary aim of this paper is to show how narrative supervision can contribute to achieving ostensibly conflicting goals. On the one hand, power hierarchy can be counteracted and the multiple-truth stance enhanced in the supervisorsupervisee relationship, while supervisees are empowered to acknowledge their own expertise. On the other hand, a setting is provided in which supervisors can contribute from their expertise and experience to facilitate therapeutic training and supervision. To this end, the use of definitional ceremony practice (White, 2007) was taken further and was extended to three inter-connected group-supervision practices, which were implemented and explored. The expanded practice was named Multi-circular Definitional Ceremony practices (MCDC practices). A complementary aim is to demonstrate that the entire supervision process can be based on and included in MCDC practices whileOur thanks to the following people for lending us their wisdom, professionalism, friendship, and generosity: Chava and Hagit (fictitious names), Fogel Rachel, Gershoni Yael, Levenbach Darylle, and the staff members at the Barcai Institute/Tel-Aviv, Veeder Sarah.
