A training practicum for master's and doctoral students in Marriage and Family Therapy (MFT) at Florida State University employed co-therapy with the use of a reflecting mirror as the primary supervisory techniques. These students did not have a master's degree in MFT and it was believed that they would benefit from co-therapy with their supervisors-in-training. While traditional supervisory techniques were also utilized (e.g., pre-and post-session reviews, group supervision, and videotape reviews), co-therapy, along with the unique use of a reflecting mirror approach, were considered to be the most useful supervision and training tools by the practicum supervisor, the supervisors-in-training, and the trainees.
