Abstract
Triadic supervision has been considered a credible and effective form of clinical supervision within counselor education programs
since being included in the 2001 standards for the Council for Accreditation of Counseling and Related Educational Programs
(CACREP). A phenomenological study was conducted to examine the experiences of masters-level counselor trainees in practicum
with triadic supervision. Several transcendent themes emerged, namely: Initial Apprehensions, Shared Developmental Process,
Vicarious Learning, Multiple Perspectives, and Safety through Trust and Relationship. The results of this study are discussed
as they impact the field of counselor education and supervision.
