Description
Supervision is a crucial support to help develop mental health providers’ competence (Callahan et al., 2009; Shernoff et al., 2017). Studies document that supervision is a stronger contributor to positive youth outcomes than the actual interventions mental health providers use (Wampold, 2001). Despite the crucial role that supervision plays in providing effective mental health services, evidence suggests supervisors receive limited training on how to effectively supervise others (Mann & Merced, 2018). Dr. Elisa Shernoff will offer a synthesis of the latest research on effective supervision practices with an emphasis on culturally responsive models that embed race, identity, and culture as meaningful elements of supervision (Silva, 2018; Soheilian et al., 2014). Dr. Shernoff will use self-reflection and group activities to increase participants’ knowledge and skills in: (1) supervision goals and function, (2) best practices in supervising others, and (3) developing supervision plans.
This recording of a previously held webinar is designed for psychologists, counselors, social workers, and school administrators interested in increasing their knowledge and skills in how to supervise others with an emphasis on culturally responsive practices.
