Supervised: Egor Rogozhnikov, Supervisor: Yulia Abakumova - Kociuniene (Birštonas, Lithuania) Supervisions began in September 2012 and continued until July 28, 2015, during this period 74 supervisions took place. Supervisions took place regularly, most of the time weekly, with breaks for vacations and other events in professional and personal life. Problems of clients with whom I most often had to work: difficulties in relationships between husband and wife, child-parent relationships, stress disorders, fears, phobias, dissociated states, depressive states, apathy, problems with self-esteem and self-determination, psychosomatic disorders. At the beginning of my therapeutic practice, I encountered problems organizing interaction with clients in terms of the therapeutic contract, starting with the time frame of the session, discussing goals, discussing duration, ending with problems associated with communicating with clients outside the therapeutic session. Despite the fact that during the training process we were given exhaustive theoretical knowledge, in practice everything turned out to be much more complicated. Individual characteristics of clients’ reactions to significant aspects of the therapeutic contract, more precisely, my lack of readiness, lack of experience, my lack of self-confidence, my need for clients affected the quality of building a therapeutic relationship. During the first year of practice, the average duration of work was 5-6 sessions, and many of the relationships ended before they even began. During the supervision process, all issues related to the contract were discussed, and more than once, the result of these discussions was the strengthening of my therapeutic position, the reduction of uncertainty and, as a result, a significant, 3-fold increase in the average duration of work with clients. In supervision, enough attention was paid to the formation of my therapeutic position, based on the ability to be with a client in a state of uncertainty, in a state of “not knowing” and “not doing”, and associated with these states, a feeling of anxiety. On the formation and development of a phenomenological method of research, with an emphasis on the client’s experiences. On awareness of one’s own feelings, in the process of being with the client and outside the process, developing sensitivity to subtle differences in the client’s behavior and the expression of certain feelings. Through discussing difficult moments in relationships with clients and my feelings related to this, I began to develop the ability to reflect and self-reflect. In the process of supervising my work, I encountered, and continue to encounter, the presence of certain values, prejudices and beliefs that did not contribute to the formation of more stable and productive relationships with certain clients. Having found and clarified them in supervision, I subsequently worked on this in personal therapy. The main limiting features were the following: the desire to achieve results faster than the client himself wanted or was ready for; insufficiently competent distribution of responsibility between me and the client; at the initial stage, the presence in the practice of unclear boundaries in the contract with the client, such as compliance with the time limits for meetings, the number of meetings, and the definition of therapeutic goals; identifying oneself with the client’s experiences, countertransferences; the presence of evaluative perception based on one’s own values; underdeveloped reflection, which does not allow time to track, understand what is happening and adjust one’s behavior; an uncontrollable desire to help before the essence of the problem has been clarified, etc. Another important issue that was discussed during the supervision process was my openness in relations with the client. Before discussing this quality in supervision, I associated openness, to a greater extent, with self-disclosure, which turned out to be incorrect and, moreover, then often made me vulnerable to the client, without benefiting our.
