48 decisive in determining the extent to which a successful learning process can be achieved. That way, the supervisee can master relationships that posed difficulties in the past more easily, thuspromoting a sense of self-responsibility. Similar to the therapeutic process, phenomena of defense and resistance can occur. Within the supervisory process, resistance is that which opposes the clarification work in the supervisory process. This resistance can manifest itself in different ways and should be viewed and justified in different ways by the supervisor. Resistance can sometimes only be dealt with to a limited extent within supervision. The limitation lies in the actual goal of supervision, namely to develop the necessary skills or to overcome a disturbance in the ability to learn in order to be able to act adequately in the field of work. It is particularly difficult when the supervisee's resistance manifests itself in a transference in the here-and- now of supervision. Ultimately, it will always depend on the extent to which a supervisee can face up to the "demand character" [17], what resources they bring along to engage in the supervisoryprocess, to face up to the necessary demands, so to speak, or to allow them to be uncovered. The development of our professional identity, regardless of the field, is necessarily linked to our willingness and enjoyment of different learning processes andmaking good use of them. "Our individual identity is not created in solitary isolation, but in interaction with others, that is, in dialogue. Therefore, it depends on the character of these relationships who each of us will become." 11 [18 p. 197; transl. by UW] REFERENCES [1] Wedam, U (2013): Überlegungen zur Supervision.
