ABSTRACT
The practice of marriage and family therapy, and the supervision and training of marital and family therapist are interdependent. In the early 1960s live supervision, the one-way mirror, and the consultation team as co-therapist became synonymous with family therapy and family therapy training. Liddle (1991a) provides a comprehensive overview of family therapy supervision. He details the evolution of family therapy supervision, its critical issues, and current theoretical positions on supervision and training held across the major approaches. Early classical works include Montalvo (1973), Haley (1976), and Cleghorn and Levin (1973). These works established the foundation for modern family therapy supervision associated with university and postgraduate training institutes found throughout the United States.
