Abstract

This article explores the complex dynamics of the supervision process in cognitive behavioural therapy (CBT) and schema therapy, focusing on the pivotal role of a supervisor's personality traits. It elucidates how these traits can significantly influence their supervisory leadership style, the therapeutic process, and the professional evolution of the supervisee. The paper further elaborates on how these influences can potentially enhance or impede the effectiveness of CBT and schema therapy. It underscores that the supervisor's personality traits can catalyze the supervisee's professional growth and optimize the therapy's effectiveness. However, it also discusses that maladaptive personality traits can have a detrimental impact on supervision. These traits can inadvertently challenge the supervision process, affecting the therapeutic outcomes.
