“…I have two main answers to these questions. First, therapists with eating disorder histories often seek out positions in this field, but many don't feel safe revealing their personal recovery (Bloomgarden, 2000). Although I have never asked about personal experience with an eating disorder in an interview, my own recovery is so public that people tell me they feel comfortable revealing their recovery to me.…”

“…Theory and research also suggest, however, if such a disclosure is to be perceived as helpful, the clinician must have the opportunity to work out her or his personal feelings and examine the risks and benefits of the self-disclosure (Rabinor, 2000). Clearly, the supervisor in the previous example was unable to facilitate this clinical intervention, perhaps because of her own lack of understanding of use of self, countertransference, and the role of the supervisor.…”

This article examines therapeutic use of self in light of theoretical considerations and recent empirical findings. Two different sets of behaviors are distinguished: transparency and self-disclosure. The article examines how the supervisor can promote supervisees' understanding of and engagement in therapeutic use of self as well as how the supervisor can use herself or himself to enhance the supervisory alliance and model appropriate use of self with clients. Case examples illustrate the ethical, theoretical, and evidencebased considerations that should guide use of self in practice and supervision.

“…The impact of transparency and here-and-now disclosures have been widely researched for decades in psychotherapy-related literature (e.g., Barrett & Berman, 2001;Bloomgarden & Rabinor, 2000;Burkard, Knox, Green, Perez & Hess, 2006;Constantine & Kwan, 2003;Fisher, 2004;Ganzer & Ornstein, 2004;Goldstein, 1994;Hendrick, 1988Hendrick, , 1990Henretty & Levitt, 2009;Knox, Hess, Petersen & Hill, 1997;Knox & Hill, 2003;Peca-Baker & Friedlander, 1989;Raines, 1996;Sweezy, 2005;Tantillo, 2004;Zur, 2009;Watkins, 1990). Remarkably, there-and-then disclosures are considered less therapeutic even though many therapists may equate them with use of self (Jeffrey & Austin, 2007;Kelly & Rodriguez, 2007).…”

This article introduces the results of a pilot survey conducted with accredited Canadian music therapists investigating their perceptions of personal psychotherapy and the concept of Safe and Effective Use of Self (SEUS) in the music therapy relationship. An emailed survey questionnaire covered both closed and open-ended questions on SEUS-related topics. The open-ended questions were analysed using the qualitative data analysis software Nvivo. Simple percentages were calculated to analyse the results of the closed-ended questions. The results suggest that music therapists engaging in psychotherapy seem to work with similar client populations, use similar theoretical approaches and techniques, and hold very similar training to other music therapists. These music therapists appear to have an excellent sense of SEUS, whether or not they practice psychotherapy. Conversely, their training on both SEUS and verbal counselling skills is often seen as inadequate. It is suggested that music therapists who practice psychotherapy have completed their own psychotherapy and have ongoing music psychotherapy supervision. The results can be utilised as a discussion stimulus for the topic of SEUS in music therapy.
