This study investigated the art therapists' current situation, perception, and
satisfaction level of post-graduate supervision including art-based supervision.
A total of 87 responses were analysed with SPSS 19.0 for frequency, %, ?? ,
and t-test as well as content-analysis for descriptive responses. According to
the results, most of the respondents were under supervision after graduation,
for 60-90 minutes per session, less than twice a month. Their supervisors
were mostly female, aged 40-59 with above-doctorate degrees and more than
10 years of experience. The respondents believed supervision to be essential,
beneficial, and satisfactory, and considered it a learning experience. Many of
the respondents experienced art-based supervision. Most frequently utilized
tool was therapist's artworks made outside of session, which seemed to help
exploring the therapist's unconscious thoughts and feelings such as transference
and countertransferene. The results were discussed referring to previous
studies, and suggestions for future study were presented.
