This article describes some of the challenge involved in supervising a well‐established and experienced team of two Family Therapists and one Clinical Psychology trainee in placement. It highlights the journey of a female trainee family therapist's supervisor in the context of a male team. In this article the author argues the importance of using a working framework and structure to unbalance power pressures and bring forth trust in the team. It is illustrated with narrative ideas, practices in supervision and a brief description of intersectionality applied to this context.
