Summary

Although clinical supervision is an essential part of psychotherapy training and development, the empirical evidence for effects on therapist competence and patient outcome is limited. However, a novel format, Live Supervision (LS), enables real time feedback during the patient session which counteracts on several of the major identified problems with standard supervision. Pilot studies of LS show promising results, but the effects of LS has never been assessed in a clinical setting with licensed psychologists. Furthermore, manualized LS with a stringent focus at therapists' idiosyncratic challenges has never been evaluated.

The primary aim of this study is to evaluate the effects of LS on therapist competence and perceived therapy challenges in a clinical outpatient setting with licensed psychologists as therapists. Secondary aims are to examine when and how LS is optimal for clinical supervision.
