The important functions and influences of counseling parallel processes have recently been valued by scholars and practitioners. Parallel processes often appear when counseling supervisors are aware of supervisory dilemmas. The purpose of this study was to reflect the supervisors’ experience of distinguishing and intervening parallel processes. Based on the qualitative research method of phenomenological orientation, we invited three senior supervisors to share their experiences with six supervisees, and explored their experiences of being aware of and dismant1ing supervisory dilemmas, and intervening acts during parallel processes. This study also explored the essence of the supervisors’ experiences to understand the application to supervision practice. Three experiential themes of this study were found: 1. Supervisors distinguished and were aware of parallel processes in the supervisory relationship dilemmas, 2. Whether supervisors’ awareness of parallel processes or not determined their outcome of interventions, and 3. the Effects on supervisees, clients, and supervisors after supervisors intervened parallel processes, and the change of their triangle relationships. Comparing the three experiential themes with issues showed by other scholars on papers, we found supervisors could perceive relationship dilemmas by being supervised with their own supervisors, and them they intervened parallel processes properly. And if supervisors could distinguish atypical behaviors, they could deal with parallel processes well. Besides, intervening parallel processes should take the triangle relationship-the supervisor, the supervisee, and the client-into consider, and could turn the relationship to a new balanced one. If supervisors could intervene parallel processes timely, supervisees, clients, and supervisors would go along. Finally, based on the results, we put forward suggestions. |
