16 The therapeutic relation, as foundation of the integrative psychotherapy, was also recognized by peers, as being one of the most important characteristics observed during the training program. Another thing mentioned was that supervision is different from teaching and counselling. Supervision represents a professional road on which a senior accompanies a peer at the beginning of the road, a difficult one, filled with personal, social and financial problems. But trust, professional modesty, the courage to move forward in the beauty of this infinity, of the unknown and of the suffering of the human being deserves all the effort realized by the two actors: the supervisee and the supervisor. 2. RESEARCH METHODOLOGY. STUDY HYPOTHESES Three questionnaires were applied to supervisees and to independent therapist, located in three training centres, these being: The Evaluation process within supervision inventory (EPSI) [4], The Supervisory working alliance inventory (SWAI) – Supervisee conceived by Efstation, J.F, Patton, M.J. & Kardash, C.M. [5] and the Supervisory Styles Inventory (SSI) [6]. The supervisor also completed the Myers-Briggs Test (MBTI) and Supervisory Styles Inventory [6]. The hypotheses proposed were: 1. Are there or not any significant differences in the components of the assessment and evaluation process in supervision (goal setting and feedback) in the three areas of training and supervision centres (the capital, the country centre and the western side). 2. Are there or not any preferences for the supervisor’s styles or roles (the consultant, the counsellor and the professor roles) in the three training areas (the capital, the country centre and the western side). 3. Are there or not any significant differences in the supervision alliance (as it is perceived) in the three training areas. The sample is built of supervisees and independent psychotherapists and contains a number of 46 subjects. The results obtained were processed with the help of the Statistics Software IBM SPSS Statistics 23. The statistical indications used to obtained concrete results were:
