Supervision plays a central role in supporting professional practice, practitioner wellbeing, clinical governance and client safety. This anthology, designed as a collection of possibilities rather than a definitive guide, offers a window into a less visible and rarely discussed aspect of practice. Contributors draw on first-hand encounters of supervision to share insights from both professional and public perspectives. These span practice contexts from pre-registration to qualified and into advanced clinical practice and management roles.

In addition, it will appeal to other allied health and care professionals. This anthology aims to stimulate reflection on contemporary issues in supervision as well as individual, service and organisational supervision culture and practice.
