“…Personal issues should be addressed in supervision only in terms of the impact of these issues on clients and on professional functioning' ' (p. 273). This is consistent with views expressed by other authors (Burns & Holloway, 1989;Kurpius, Gibson, Lewis, & Corbet, 1991;Stout, 1987;Whiston & Emerson, 1989). Whiston and Emerson (1989) addressed the issue of non-choice.…”

“…Supervisors are likely to face impaired therapists periodically as they perform supervision. Burns and Holloway (1989), Whiston and Emerson (1989), and Herlihy and Corey (1992) recommended that when inadequate counseling performance appears to be a result of personal problems of the supervisee, the supervisor must investigate. Exploration with the supervisee involves the use of counseling behaviors.…”

In this paper the authors outline ethical standards associated with the use of counseling behaviors within supervision. They begin by demonstrating why it is unethical to provide personal psychotherapy for one's supervisees. The counselor's role in supervision as initially described by Bernard (1979), however, involves appropriate and ethical counseling behaviors for purposes of student assessment and training. Strategies for facilitating development of reflective skills and the use of self as an instrument for assessment are described.

“…In contrast to many of the ethical guidelines discussed thus far, the difficulty of dual roles between the supervisor and supervisee is one of the most discussed ethical issues in the supervision literature (Kurpius et al, 1991;Ryder & Hepworth, 1990;Whiston & Emerson, 1989).

The overall purpose of this article is to present a review of the literature that identifies the salient ethical guidelines related to the practice of supervision and to discuss the results of a study that examined supervisor ethical practices. In terms of our investigation, we examined supervisee perceptions of their supervisors' adherence to ethical guidelines, supervisee reactions to ethical violations, and the relationships among supervisor ethical behaviors, the supervisory working alliance, and supervisee satisfaction. The results indicated that 51% of the 151 beginning to intern-level supervisees sampled reported at least one ethical violation by their supervisors. The most frequently violated guidelines involved adequate performance evaluation, confidentiality issues relevant to supervision, and ability to work with alternative perspectives. Greater nonadherence to ethical guidelines was significantly related to a weaker supervisory alliance and lower supervisee satisfaction. Limitations and implications for psychotherapy supervision theory, research, and practice are addressed.Although the mental health field has long recognized the importance of ethical standards for the practice of counseling and psychotherapy (e.g., American Psychological Association, 1992), only recently has attention been focused on the importance of ethical standards for counseling and psychotherapy supervision (
