The purpose of this study is to verify the mediating effects of the supervisory relationship between supervisee insecure attachment strategies and supervisee self-disclosure in play therapy supervision. For this purpose, the Supervisee Attachment Strategies Scale, the Korean Short Version of the Supervisory Relationship Questionnaire, and Self-Disclosure were used. The subjects of this study are 158 play therapists who have received prior supervision. Collected data were analyzed by SPSS 25.0 and Hayes’s Process Macro ver. 4.0. The major results of this study can be summarized as follows. First, according to the correlation analysis on the relationship between supervisee insecure attachment strategies, supervisory relationship, and supervisee self-disclosure, significant correlations were found. Specifically, supervisee insecure attachment strategies had negative correlations with the total score for the supervisory relationship, sub-factors of the supervisory relationship, and supervisee self-disclosure. Conversely, the total score for the supervisory relationship and its sub-factors had positive correlations with supervisee self-disclosure. Second, sub-factors of the supervisory relationship had significant mediating effects between supervisee insecure attachment strategies and supervisee self-disclosure. In conclusion, this study verifies the mediating effect of the supervisory relationship between supervisee insecure attachment strategies and supervisee self-disclosure. Consequently, this study extends the research on the supervisory relationship in play therapy supervision, raises the need to understand supervisee attachment strategies, and provides a basis for supervision intervention.
