Thanks Brillstep, that makes a lot of sense. I mean, it still makes me feel nervous and self-conscious to think of my T and his supervisor sitting around blabbing about me for an hour  , but it does make sense that you'd need the time to get into the details and reflect on how things are going.
I really hope the supervisor didn't tell him to take the ball away! I can just hear her now, "OMG! You played catch with her? In the office? During therapy? What the heck is wrong with you dude? You need to stop that, right now... and take back that pillow while you're at it!"

Hehe, I love your sense of humor!
Well, in some cases it's an hour, in other cases it may be less - it depends on the setting, really. Just like therapy can also be 50, 60, 90 minutes ... depending on approach.
I understand your fear actually. I used to be afraid of that with my therapist's supervisor, especially with the dual relationship thing. But after years of therapy I've come to trust my therapist's supervisor even though I've never met him. He's been supervising my therapist for so long and here I am, still happily in therapy with the same person, so the supervisor can't be that bad. In fact, judging from my therapist's stories, he sounds like an awesome supervisor, and I'm glad my therapist has such great support as a professional.
