Sexual Minority Supervision

&
Pages 17-38 | Published online: 08 Sep 2008
 

ABSTRACT

Although there are an ever-growing number of sexual minority therapists, many are supervised by heterosexual supervisors who are not knowledgeable about sexual minority issues, which impact the sexual minority therapist and her/his interactions with their clients (Halpert & Pfaller, Citation2001; Pfohl, Citation2004). In light of this, the authors designed a qualitative inquiry based in a one-semester sexual minority supervision group. Participants included self-identified sexual minority human service professionals in graduate school. Themes that emerged in the group involved professional and community identities, self-disclosure, organizational culture, and the role of advocacy and fighting oppression. The benefits of such supervision and the subsequent implications of this research will be discussed.
