Background: Although the free-floating discussion format is widely used in group therapy, the application of this format in the context of supervisory groups has yet to be clarified. Purpose: The purpose of this study was to explore the mechanisms involved in facilitating and learning the free-floating discussion format in a supervisory group. Methods: A phenomenological approach was used to investigate the group content and personal feedback of a psychiatric- nurse supervisory group. The group held on 12 sessions. Each session was conducted once weekly and lasting 150 minutes. Results: The findings identified the functions of free-floating discussions in the context of supervisory groups as: embodied interaction and initiation by handling. Embodied interaction included: reflection on the experience of the other, sense of body, and present action. Initiation by handling included: facilitating the self-narrative, following the lead of the group, and reflecting in accordance with the group. Conclusions / Implications for Practice: The role of the facilitator is to parallel process rather than to lead in order to produce practical wisdom. Free-floating discussion and self-evidence from initiation by handling has the potential to promote spontaneity, creativity, and self-confidence in clinical practice and to promote deep learning. |
