This paper explores the concept of supervision in general, and music therapy supervision in particular. It suggests factors which have to be taken into account in each supervisory relationship, and looks at finding a balance in accommodating these factors within a clear supervisory frame. This is illustrated by case material from the author's own supervisory work.
