The main objective of this study is to describe how nurses experience clinical supervision in psychiatric care. The study design is explorative and descriptive. A clinical supervision process with a theoretical approach to caring includes a learning process, the application of a caring process, and a relationship process. An important aspect of this theoretical approach is the spiritual dimension of caring and its manifestation in the supervision process as well as in the development of the nurse's identity. The results indicate the following phenomena: guilt and a feeling of guilt, reconciliation, forgiveness and loneliness.
