Review Quotes:
"Family Therapy Supervision in Extraordinary Settings is much more than a book about supervision! It shows supervision as the nexus where family therapy is (re)created to meet the moment. Reminiscent of the inspired energy of Minuchin, Haley, and Hoffman, the authors use improvisation, relationship, technology, and work from the heart to employ and expand enduring systemic concepts in newly responsive ways. It's a page-tuner with vivid examples across geopolitical spaces, sociocultural contexts, interdisciplinary workplaces, and conflict-affected areas. This positive, optimistic work left me revitalized and hopeful about the promise of systemic therapy."

"This extraordinary volume is recommended not only for trainers and supervisors, but also for trainees and therapists who want to learn about supervision in contexts and circumstances which are not commonplace. Moreover, the chapters show variations of supervision, like peer- and self-supervision. Through illustrative project descriptions and case examples, written from an I-perspective, the book gives us numerous opportunities to learn in a narrative mode."
