YASMIN ÁKSU s "hey develop completely different ideas without introducing them as digressing. + They stop providing audible back channeling and/or do not take up the turn. Interestingly, supervisees in the investigated sessions show a strong tendency to not openly refuse the supervisor‘s ideas. That makes it important for supervisors to be able to recognize the implicit strategies of refusal.” CONCLUSION From the transcript analyses above it has become evident that unobtrusive backchanneling, short paraphrases and metaphors, colloquial language (in moderate use), and refraining from asking ancillary questions too early seems to be fruitfully supporting the supervisee, thus creating a trusting atmosphere. This atmosphere can be inferred from small signals sent by the supervisee, like strong confirmations (“exactly!”) or, on the contrary, the lack of reactions. In addition, for a supervisor it is useful to be able to identify dissent by paying attention to escalations (with an underlying message along the lines of “it was really bad, and your suggestions do not address the issue appropriately”) or de-escalations (underlying message e. g. “no, no, it wasn’t that bad, let’s go into a different direction”). In any case, for a supervisor — or any counselor, in fact — who is willing to pay attention to these patterns during their sessions, it is a good idea to start with only of them in order to keep control and benefit as much as possible.
