Abstract

A novel Family of Origin as Supervisory Resource Model that harnesses the family of origin of the therapist-in-training as a cultural supervisory resource in the training paradigm is presented. The format of the model comprises three phases: supervisor’s exploration of the trainee’s professional dilemmas, supervisor’s exploration of the same dilemma through stories narrated by the supervisee’s family of origin members, and supervisee’s presentation of a case that is an example of the dilemma. The application of this training model during supervision strengthens the trainee’s flexibility in divergent family systems and enhances the ability to handle dilemmas and to form a healthy therapeutic alliance.
