Building and Maintaining Effective Relationships in Clinical Supervision
Hours: 1.50
Effective clinical supervision is a core element in the development and growth of behavioral health professionals. The dynamics of the supervisor-supervisee relationship can have a significant impact on the supervisee’s skill-development, professionalism, and willingness to examine strengths and weaknesses. Supervisors must have the skills necessary for establishing and maintaining effective relationships with their supervisees to prevent training and professional development gaps from harming supervisees or their clients. In this course, you will learn about the foundations of an effective supervisory relationship and strategies you can use to develop and support effective relationships with your supervisees. The goal of this course is to provide addictions, behavioral health counseling, marriage and family therapy, psychology, and social work professionals in health and human services settings with skills that support effective supervisory relationships.
