Implications are identified for counselors in the roles of practitioner and advocate, along with suggestions of future directions for research.
Supervision conflict is natural and inevitable. However, if not resolved effectively it can be detrimental to the supervisory relationship. The Enneagram is a personality classification system that houses nine basic personality types and their interrelationships. It has been utilized to facilitate self-and other-awareness in various situations, from client-counselor dyads to corporate employee groups. The authors propose that the Enneagram, and its neurobiological influences, can be a useful tool within the counseling supervision process, strengthening both the supervision relationship as well as modeling understanding and awareness that supervisees that can utilize in their relationships with clients.
