ABSTRACT

Our illustrative model of integrative supervision is like most integrative models in its process. The integrative clinician begins by using a systemic lens to construct the “bigger picture” of a family’s overall functioning, symptoms, and dynamics. The next step is to integrate these observed systemic patterns with the clinical data from the actual interview to form early working hypotheses for assessment. Finally, these data are integrated with an informed selection of appropriate clinical interventions expected to change the family system.
