“…A second technique that we have incorporated, also borrowed from the group supervision literature, involves a structured process during which the presenting supervisee presents a clear plea for help (Wilbur, Roberts-Wilbur, Hart, Morris, & Betz, 1994), stated as, "I need your help with . .…”

The Council for Accreditation of Counseling and Related Educational Programs (2001) has approved the use of triadic supervision as an alternative to individual supervision in clinical instruction. However, literature describing this mode of supervision is very limited. A model for triadic supervision is described, including presession planning, in-session strategies, and administrative considerations and supervisee evaluation. An evaluation of the model from 2 recent studies is also discussed, and recommendations are provided for using triadic supervision in counselor preparation.Counselor supervision is one of the most direct and intensive ways to intervene in the development of counselors-in-training. In 2001, the Council for Accreditation of Counseling and Related Educational Programs (CACREP) revised the standards for supervision of counselors-in-training to include triadic supervision as an approved modality. The triadic supervision approach is defined by CACREP as "a tutorial and mentoring relationship between a supervisor and two counseling students" (p. 105) that involves all three members simultaneously. Although the research and literature on individual and group supervision is extensive, relatively little is known about triadic supervision in the form articulated by CACREP.This article describes the triadic supervision literature, the strengths and limitations of this approach to supervision, and the implementation and evaluation of a specific form of triadic supervision in a counselor education program at one university. The model for triadic supervision described herein also provides a guide for the interpersonal and counseling supervision skills necessary to work effectively within this supervision structure.

“…Because of the lack of basic research in this area, Prieto (1996), Wilbur et al (1994), and Werstlein and Borders (1997) contended that initial exploratory group supervision research is necessary. Prieto (1996), Holloway and Johnston (19851, and Borders (1991) also argued that group supervision research should be exploratory and discovery oriented.…”

“…Based on previous models and contentions regarding the efficacy of peer group supervision, Borders (1991) and Wilbur, Roberts-Wilbur, Hart, Morris, and Betz (1994) developed specific procedures regarding how to structure peer supervision groups. Most recently, research related to structured peer group supervision includes Starling's (1995) qualitative study of practicum supervisees.…”

The authors completed an exploratory factor analysis of the scores of 248 counselors‐in‐training on the Counselor Skills Personal Development Rating Form (CSPD‐RF; M. B. Wilbur, 1991). Participants' counseling program was accredited by the Council for Accreditation of Counseling and Related Educational Programs at a midsize western university. The authors of the CSPD‐RF hypothesized that the CSPD‐RF measured 2 factors: (a) personal development and (b) skills development. Factor analysis yielded 4 factors (Emotional Sensitivity, Basic Listening Skills, Multicultural Skills, and Influencing Skills), accounting for 58.4% of the total variance, thus providing some support for the construct validity of the CSPD‐RF.
