This course is new or has been updated recently.

This text describes a transtheoretical approach that has been the gold standard in supervisory practice for nearly two decades. The authors show readers how to identify, assess, and track the knowledge, specific skills, broad attitudes, and human values that undergird a series of professional competencies in areas such as professional values, sensitivity to individual and cultural differences, ethical and legal standards, self-care, scientific knowledge and methods, applying evidence-based practice, and more. From practicum to internship and general practice, the competency-based approach offers clear training goals that help organize and focus the supervisor’s attention where it’s needed most.

This book is part of the American Psychological Association Clinical supervision Essentials Series, the central resource for understanding contemporary models of psychotherapy super vision. Each book presents a concise review of the history, principles, techniques, and processes of a particular approach to supervision, including detailed analysis of a single supervision session and discussion of evidence supporting the approach. These books are an indispensable guide for students learning how to supervise as well as practitioners seeking quick references to improve their own supervision skills.
