Abstract
Background: Clinical supervision plays an essential role in the professional training of clinical psychologists. Different supervision models have been developed; however, few studies address how the ongoing process of supervision is developed. Objective: To describe the dynamics of clinical group supervision at the Adult Unit of the Clinical Psychology Service of a University Clinic, which provides psychological care to the community. Methodology: A descriptive qualitative study of cross-sectional scope, in a sample of 5 video-recorded supervision sessions, whose verbal interaction was subjected to conventional content analysis. Results: Aspects of the opening of the supervision process are distinguished, in which a different degree of difficulties of the supervisees to formulate supervision questions is identified, a difficulty framed in a context of affective involvement of the supervisees. Interventions by members of the supervision team are identified: a validation of the supervisee's experience which is present each one supervision process; and specific interventions during the supervision process, for example, questions aimed at reviewing "the experience" of the supervisee during the care of the case; "construction of comprehensive hypotheses of the case", and the delivery of "suggestions for the therapeutic approach" of the specific case, and/or that can be applied to other ones.
