ABSTRACT
The important advances of Delphi study capture the scope of supervision but also potentially overwhelm readers who are challenged to digest limited scope. A major finding of the Howard A. Liddle et al and R. J. Halpin review was that training styles are largely derivative of the model being taught. Participants were American Association for Marriage and Family Therapy Approved Supervisors who had responded to a set of progressively modified questionnaires designed to capture the scope of supervision. Multileveled theory has been part of the family therapy scene from the beginning, having been a core principle of L. von Bertalanffy’s conception of systems. Most family therapists will ultimately practice individual, couple, and family therapy, automatically necessitating their use of several models. Views of family therapy range from seeing only the whole family to the view that any combination of people can be in the room so long as the therapist maintains a systemic focus.
