ABSTRACT
We have heard the story of an accreditation team’s site visit to a family therapy program where the team expressed surprise at the high percentage of individual supervision provided to the therapists. There was a sense that they were displeased. The faculty members were taken aback by that. The faculty had always taken pride in the individual attention each student in their program received. They considered individual supervision, whether it was live or face-to-face using videotape and case presentation, as an expression of that personal care. They believed that the intensity and intimacy of individual tutorials was the way to go and that group supervision was something to be used for reasons of economy and convenience.
