ABSTRACT This paper discusses supervision through a structural family therapy (SFT) lens. SFT aims to alter dysfunctional patterns in exchange for healthy interactions by creating clear hierarchies and boundaries. Families are organized by hierarchies; within this structure, it is common for parents and older adults to be at the top. This mirrors supervision as traditionally the more experienced and higher licensed clinicians are at the top. This paper conveys how clinical supervisors can train, educate, and support while establishing a hierarchical position allowing for isomorphic and bidirectional growth. Additionally, this paper introduces an intervention utilizing hierarchies to address privilege and power.

ABSTRACT The Whole Name Exercise is a self of the therapist training strategy designed to highlight the significance of family history and culture in the everyday lived experiences of the participants. This activity can facilitate self-reflection, group bonding, and play an important role in demonstrating values of equity and social justice. This article provides background on the significance of names, including historical and modern-day practices of dehumanizing people through naming and renaming practices. The Whole Name Exercise is described and suggestions to enhance the facilitation of the activity are discussed. Finally, two esteemed colleagues share the stories and significance of their names by responding to the questions in the exercise.
