An Existential and Phenomenological Approach to Coaching Supervision

"As the methodology for coaching supervision has grown and developed in recent years, so too has the need for comprehensive engagement with the needs of supervisees. This ground-breaking and much-needed new book from Monica Hanaway presents a unique existential approach to coaching supervision. This book includes an introduction to the model, with emphasis on the philosophical focus of the existential coaching approach and concepts such as uncertainty, freedom, emotions, values and beliefs, meaning and relatedness. Hanaway offers supervisors ways of working with their supervisees on each of the key existential themes, as well as a comparison with other coaching supervision models. This book describes how a supervisor can bring an existential approach into their work, both with existential coaches and with those working in different modalities who are interested in adding to their portfolio of service. It will be of immense value to academics and students of coaching psychology"-- Provided by publisher Cover Endorsement Page Half Title Title Page Copyright Page Dedication Table of Contents Acknowledgments Introduction Part One Chapter 1 The meaning and role of supervision in professionals concerned with the support, development, and treatment of others Chapter 2 The current position on coaching supervision Part Two Chapter 3 The main themes of existentialism Chapter 4 Phenomenological investigation Chapter 5 The existentially informed coaching approach Part Three Chapter 6 Bringing an existential approach to supervising coaches Chapter 7 Practical ways for exploring existential issues in supervision Chapter 8 Ethical considerations in existential coaching supervision Part Four Introduction to case examples Chapter 9 Case example 1: The unsuccessful chemistry session Chapter 10 Case example 2: Working with authenticity, meaning, and emotion Chapter 11 Case example 3: Working with paradox, self-esteem, emotion, relatedness, and boundaries Chapter 12 Case example 4: Working with existential dimensions Case examples: Conclusion Conclusion Bibliography Index
