Strongly Bonded Supervisory Relationships: Demystifying The Bond Aspect Of The Supervisory Working Alliance, Melissa Heinrich

Dissertations

The current study explores the bond aspect of the supervisory working alliance through the lens of relational-cultural theory (RCT).

Anticipated Therapist Absences: The Therapist’S Lens, Graham Gardner Knowlton Jul 2018

Anticipated Therapist Absences: The Therapist’S Lens, Graham Gardner Knowlton

Dissertations (1934 -)
