Blackman (2025) provided an instructive developmental stage perspective on the psychoanalytic supervision process. But other highly instructive developmental supervision perspectives—created outside the borders of psychoanalytic ideology—have largely been ignored within the psychoanalytic supervision literature. In this complementary comment, I introduce and consider some of those often-unconsidered pan-theoretical developmental supervision models and their additive value for psychoanalytic supervision, with special emphasis being placed on the beginner/novice phase supervisee.
