Professionals in the field of special education and education in general enter into many interactions with different people within their work process on a daily basis. While being professionally oriented towards identifying potential sources of help and empowerment for the individual, we can find ourselves either in situations that have a positive impact on our professional satisfaction and growth, or that present themselves as problematic situations that burden us. In addition to social factors such as interpersonal relationships, we can also be stressed by other factors arising from work conditions: by the role of the individual in the workplace, by career development opportunities and also by the organisational climate. Therefore we may need the option of, or opportunity for, professional relief within a systematic problem-solving process. As an example of such a process, in this paper we present the intervision method as one form of supervision. With a practical example we point out the role and features of intervision, its impact on the professional development and personal competence of an individual. We also define the advantages and disadvantages of the classic form of intervision and summarise an experience of the intervision process during the Covid-19 pandemic.
