Supervision

High quality, competency-based supervision is an essential part of the internship program. You can expect the following from supervision at this comprehensive counseling center:

• Primary supervision and group supervision is provided by licensed health service psychologists, who work at the Counseling Center full-time. 
• Additional supervision may be provided by appropriately credentialed members of the interdisciplinary permanent clincial staff that includes: psychologists, social workers, mental health counselors, and marriage & family therapists.
• A minimum of 2 hours of individual supervision each week
• Supervision feedback is based on direct observation and digital video recording

Primary supervisor selection process entails:

• Interns will meet with potential primary supervisors before the beginning of each semester
• Interns will submit a list of supervisor preferences along with a rationale to the internship training director
• Internship Training Director and Training Committee will make matches based on supervisee preferences and supervisors capability to assist supervisees in meeting their goals for internship

Our supervision structure incorporates the opportunity to be supervised by multiple supervisors (breadth) while retaining a core team of supervisors who have primary responsibility (depth and continuity):

• A primary supervisor provides two hours weekly of supervision each semester. Primary supervisors are selected each semester, giving interns the opportunity to work with multiple staff members over the year
• Group supervision is led by the Internship Director and other licensed psychologists for 2 hours weekly over the internship year. The first hour is focused on clinical work and professional development, while the second alternates between supervision of supervision and deliberate practice exercises. 
• Co-facilitation supervisors provide 30 minutes of supervision weekly regarding group therapy in each semester that interns co-facilitate group counseling. 

Other opportunities for clinical consultation and collaboration:

• Co-therapy of couples counseling with permanent clincial staff
• Clinical team meetings
• Supervision of outreach activities with permanent clinical staff
• Informal consultations with staff regarding specific cases
