Clinical supervision is considered to be imperative for the development and maintenance of psychotherapeutic competencies. In terms of self-awareness and self-efficacy, understanding the trajectory of clinical supervision will further facilitate client outcomes. The present review focused on understanding and providing future directions in the major trends in clinical supervision and its impact on self-awareness and self-efficacy of the supervisees. For the purpose of the study, six databases including Pubmed, PsychINFO, Jstor, Wiley Online Library, AcademiaEdu, and Elton B. Stephens company (EBSCO) were used in the search strategy according to current guidelines. The systematic literature search identified 17 publications from the empirical studies. The results indicate that supervision has a positive impact on the supervisee, whereby they grow and develop. It is further evident that supervision has some impact on key developmental areas, such as skills, self-awareness, and self-efficacy. The systematic review supported the notion that clinical supervision as a topic, often lags behind in empirical research. (PsycInfo Database Record (c) 2022 APA, all rights reserved).
