Mental Health Supervision IV

Clinical Supervision Best Practices
Steven M. Sultanoff, Ph.D.

This new intermediate program will focus on ways to enhance our traditional modes of supervision. Major topics will include unconscious bias (i.e., blind spots) of supervisors and supervisees, layers of supervisee development, administrative responsibilities, and living with regulation constraints and risk management. We will also address the importance of experiential activities for supervisees as a complement to traditional didactic interventions. In addition to the lecture presentation, the workshop will include video examples and practice vignettes.

This course satisfies the Board of Behavioral Sciences and the Board of Psychology requirements for supervision training.

Topics

• “Blink” Moments (Unconscious Learned Reactions)
• Unconscious Competence Versus Intuition
• Supervisee Self Report Vs. Actual Behavior
• Vacations, Absences, And Other Missed Supervision
• Multitasking Skills And Layers Of Skill Competence
• Retroactive Inhibition (Unlearning Earlier Ineffective Behaviors)
• Addressing Differences (Cultural, Gender, Age, Religious, Social Economic)
• Record Keeping—Requirements And Best Practices
• Supervision By Theory or Experiential Supervision 


Goals:

At the conclusion of this program you should be better able to:

• Differentiate basic supervision from “best practices.”
• Uncover unconscious learned reactions of supervisees.
• Clarify administrative responsibilities of supervisors.
