Little research has focused on the actual supervision session and its relationship to trainee functioning. Nineteen supervision dyads were selected to study this relationship. Tapes of supervision sessions and trainee therapy sessions were collected at three time intervals and rated by independent judges using the Carkhuff scales. Data were collected over a 15‐week semester at the first, eighth, and fifteenth weeks. Supervisor dimensions of genuinesness, respect, and concreteness were significantly related to trainee level of functioning on these same dimensions for all time intervals, except for respect at T, and concreteness at T 2 . There was no significant relationship between supervisors' empathy level in supervision and trainees' empathy level in therapy. Trainee perceptions of supervisor offered conditions, as measured by the Barrett‐Lennard Relationship Inventory, were not significantly related to their own level of functioning in therapy. The type of supervision offered (didactic or experiential) was not significantly related to higher levels of trainee genuineness and empathy at T 3 .
