Abstract
The purpose of the current study was to generate an emergent theory of the process of counselor supervision for counselor trainees who work with suicidal clients. The researchers explored perspectives of five counselor supervisors, each of whom served as director of the counseling clinic/practicum training lab at his or her respective counselor preparation program. The emergent theory was titled Supervision for Suicidal Clients as an Immediate, Versatile Collaboration Between Counselor Trainees and Counselor Supervisors and captured participants' experiences of supervision as a complex, evolving process focused on client welfare and promoting counselor trainee growth.
