Supervision Essentials for the Practice of Competency-Based Supervision (Clinical Supervision Essentials)

This concise text describes a trans-theoretical approach that has been the gold standard in supervisory practice for nearly two decades. Supervision Essentials for the Practice of Competency-Based Supervision shows readers how to identify, assess, and track the knowledge, specific skills, broad attitudes, and human values that undergird a series of professional competencies spanning the breadth of clinical practice. Case examples illuminate the supervisory give-and-take as trainees develop competence in areas such as professional values, sensitivity to individual and cultural differences, ethical and legal standards, self-care, scientific knowledge and methods, applying evidence-based practice, and more. From practicum, to internship and general practice, the competency-based approach offers clear training goals that organize and focus the supervisor’s attention where it’s needed most. This book also includes dialogue from the authors’ supervision session with a real trainee as shown in the DVD Competency-Based Supervision.
