Experience as a trainee and as a supervisor has taught me how anxious novice clinicians can be. Early in our careers, we may have a broad knowledge of theory, but still lack confidence in our ability to help patients. How can supervisors address this issue? This paper focuses on helping novice clinicians develop what I call an ‘internal chorus.’ This inner object provides a resource to cope with the clinician’s most vulnerable moments with patients. An illustration of an ‘internal chorus’ is provided.
