Supervision that borders on therapy
Hi all - I know this is a very niche situation, but I’m looking for feedback from folks that have experienced this. At my internship site, my supervisor and I have a dual relationship - I know, not ideal. A few weeks ago, they used personal information about me to force a “therapy” session that left me very upset. (Trying not to give too many details to protect my identity.) It felt violating, like I had therapy forced upon me without my consent. To be clear, there are times that I’ve discussed things with my supervisor and I’ve gotten a little tearful or aware that it brought up strong emotions but this was completely different. They used information that was unrelated to my internship experience to further their own agenda with this topic. Have others experienced this? What is supervision like for you in practicum and internship?
