The functioning of 22 counseling and therapy practicum students on the dimensions of empathy, regard, genuineness, and concreteness was assessed over a 20‐week period. Predictions of growth were made on the basis of the level of functioning of individual supervisors and practicum instructors. It was found that those students with high‐level practicum instructors and high‐level individual supervisors showed significant growth. The students with high‐level practicum instructors and low‐level individual supervisors also showed significant gains but took a longer period of time to do so. Those students with low‐level practicum instructors and low‐level individual supervisors showed no growth on these dimensions.
