CE Course Description

Behavioral health professionals are tasked with helping complex clients in complex work environments, making clinical supervision an essential component in behavioral health practice. Supervision is a process that allows ongoing observation and intervention while promoting the supervisee’s learning development, the refinement of skills, and the enhancement of the therapeutic environment. Supervision can be delivered in various ways, such as in person or through telehealth, and it can be done in an individual, dyadic, or group setting. Several models of supervision may be considered when determining what is best suited for the supervisee, organization, and client. Each model follows a different framework and provides various approaches based on the therapy or treatment provided. This course will introduce behavioral health professionals to different methods and models of clinical supervision.
