“Am I Doing This Right?”: Peer Support for Supervisors (Sept 25)

September 25, 2024, 12 p.m. – 1 p.m.

Oftentimes after members take our popular Foundations of Supervision course and begin supervising LCSW candidates, new questions come up.

1. Am I doing this right?
2. How do I navigate differences in opinion when my supervisee and I practice different modalities?
3. What if my supervisee and I disagree on an approach due to our cultural differences?

These types of questions are common, but also nuanced. Insight from one of our instructors and a group of your fellow supervisors can help. That’s why we developed our free, members-only “Peer Support for Supervisors” sessions.

For these 1-1.5 hour-sessions, the instructor will select a general topic area to focus on and then solicit questions from registered participants prior to the session. The instructor will then use these pre-submitted questions to guide the session and lead the discussion.

On September 25 the general topic area will be "Essential Tools for Supervisors and Supervisees: Enhancing Documentation, Assessment, and Goal Consistency." Please include your questions/scenarios around this topic in your registration.

Supervisors will earn 1 Category I Contact Hour.

The session is limited to 16 attendees. If you sign up and cannot attend, please let us know so that we can open the slot to another supervisor.
