Program Description
Most clinical supervisors have not had formal education or training in clinical supervision and have to draw upon their natural abilities as compassionate instructors, coaches, and mentors in order to supervise and evaluate the clinical competencies of behavioral health trainees. Much of this work is done in busy community agencies, or group practices where billable service hours and documentation are top priorities. The purpose of this workshop is to build on supervisors' existing strengths and increase the supervisory competence and confidence of supervision clinicians in behavioral health service, community agency, and group practice settings.
Five topic areas will be addressed:
1) California laws of law/ethics related to supervision;
2) A pan-theoretical framework for supervision;
3) Cultural competence and humility in supervision;
4) Identifying and responding to parallel process in supervision; and
5) Using client feedback in supervision.
The workshop will consist of a blend of didactics and experiential activities. Active participation is encouraged but not required.
Learning Objectives:
By the end of this workshop, participants will be able to:
a) Correctly identify at least three supervision competencies;
b) List the key differences among trainees who are at Stage I, II and III of the Integrated Developmental Model (IDM);
c) Name three legal and/or ethical issues central to the supervision of trainees;
d) Describe the Integrated Developmental Model (Stoltenberg & McNeil, 2010), a pan-theoretical model of clinical supervision, in their own words;
e) Define cultural humility in the context of clinical supervision;
f) Define parallel process and provide and example;
g) Name two benefits of using patient/client feedback in clinical supervision.
