Clinical Supervision

The aim of this course is to provide students with an overview of theory, research and practice models for clinical supervision. Numerous conceptual models for clinical supervision are described and discussed with an emphasis on the following approaches: developmental, person-centered, psychodynamic, cognitive behavioral, skill training, systemic, and integrated. Students use role plays to begin exploring the nature of the supervisory relationship and their own emerging approach to supervising others. They also discuss common strategies, modalities, training issues and dilemmas.
