A review of the literature on supervision reveals surprisingly few specifically transactional analysis models of supervision. The author offers an organizing framework for supervision that locates and interrelates transactional analysis philosophy, practice, and theory, in the course of which Berne's (1966) therapeutic operations are applied to supervision as “supervisory operations.” The article explores the question of whether there is such a thing as transactional analysis supervision or whether supervision is a metatheoretical—and, for that matter, a transdisciplinary—activity that may be analyzed in transactional analysis terms.
