63 cancelling, drivers and injunctions from the sphere “COMPLY TO OTHERS OR DO NOT EXIST!”, and the opposite scenario of standing out no matter how), psychological games (sexual seduction games, provocation games, “yes, but …” and “why not” game), analysing role conflicts. The family axis - the family role of the child that should not have been born; identifying the transgenerational pattern. The existential axis - the attitude towards death, the individuation deficit not allowing autonomy in relation to the self and others, problems at the contact level. According to the integrative-strategic psychotherapeutic model, long term therapy objectives were identified, the development of an integrated self through trauma assimilation, delivery from the defence mechanisms and autonomous empowering (accepting herself, developing). 4. CASE IMPACT ON THE SUPERVISEE Most of the cases impact the supervisee. Sometimes the therapist gets blocked during the therapy process, maybe s/he cannot feel an emotional connection to the client, or on the contrary get too involved and overwhelmed by own emotions, or simply cannot establish the therapeutic alliance or manage to find a solution for some rupture points in the relationship. Sometimes the therapist may not realise the optimum moment to finish the therapeutic process or miss some aspects connected to the therapeutic framework that can impact the therapy. All these are absolutely normal aspects in the process of professional and personal growth and development of the supervisee, as long as awareness and analysis surface during supervision. Once the therapist realises the origin of the blocking points as well as the fact that they are mostly connected to own life experience, separate from their client’s, the supervisee discovers optimal possibilities to continue a successful therapy that is beneficial to the client. As observed, the supervision process implies a common relating effort, both for the supervisor and the supervisee, as well as for the client. As soon as the therapist manages to reflect upon those aspects at the origin of blocking points in the therapeutic activity with the client, the therapist’s personal development also happens, as a new experiential point with a profoundly healing dimension is added to the personal reflective diary. The theoretical issues being presented in the first part of this chapter, it becomes easier to underline the supervisee experience in the supervision process, also treated from an integrative-strategic approach. This approach was used in the supervision of the case, as some aspect that were blocking the relationship with our client were discussed. Furthermore, a certain irritation felt in connection to this particular client needed to be understood.
