Abstract

In the absence of good quality evidence for the effectiveness of specific aspects or formats of Cognitive Behavioural Therapy (CBT) supervision, it is necessary to consider what is recommended as good quality CBT supervision. This review of the literature aims to provide an overview of the recommended practice of CBT supervision by considering general principles and goals of CBT supervision; the format of individual supervision sessions; the course and stages of CBT supervision; attending to supervisees' cognitions and affects; the importance of the supervisory relationship as well as the recording and rating of therapy sessions. This could provide a framework for setting standards to aspire to and stimulate further research in this field. Conforming to such practice would be an important step toward quality assurance in CBT supervision.
