This course fulfills the training requirement mandated by the Virginia Board of Social Work to provide clinical supervision for LCSW candidates. The Virginia Board of Counseling recently updated their regulations for LPC and LMFT licensure, however, now stating: 

• For LPC and LMFT licensure, your supervisor must hold an active, unrestricted license as a LPC or LMFT only, in the jurisdiction where the supervision is being provided. At least 100 of the supervision hours must be supervised by a LPC. **Previously approved supervisors who are substance abuse treatment practitioners, school psychologists, clinical psychologists, clinical social workers, or psychiatrists can provide supervision until August 24, 2017. 

 

During this highly interactive seminar, attendees will engage with other professionals to strengthen their foundation of today’s best practice knowledge and enhance their skills to function effectively in the critical role of clinical supervisor. Day 1 explores the dynamics of Group Supervision, while Day 2 focuses on Cultural Competency in Supervision.

 

Day 1: Crafting Successful Group Supervision: Theory, Practice, & Reality (7 CE Hours, 2 hours Ethics)

Conducting clinical supervision in a group setting brings richness and a different energy to the process than one-on-one supervision. Do you have the tools to be successful? You have the supervisees, and a site to meet, but what comes next? Do you have the skills, the competencies, and the knowledge of today’s best practice models?

• Review the impact of the new regulations
• Review best practice regarding contracting, record-keeping and regulatory compliance
• Review ethical implications for consideration with Group processes
• Examine common challenges to prepare for, including transference and counter-transference in group settings, confidentiality considerations, and how to manage group processes
• Review specific Group Supervision models to firm your foundation including Interactional, Competency-Based, Task and Reflective methodologies of practice

 

Day 2: From Cultural Awareness to Competence in Clinical Supervision: Knowledge, Self-Reflection, Power Communication & Practice (7 CE Hours, 2 hours Ethics)

This workshop identifies critical knowledge, behavioral aspects and practice strategies for successful multicultural supervision. The course addresses the range of attitudes, values and assumptions that are based on cultural, ethnic, gender, racial and other interpersonal differences that facilitate or impede effective supervisor-supervisee interactions and successful relationship outcomes. The presentation includes didactic and experiential learning opportunities with a focus on:

• Identification of key theoretical concepts of multicultural perspectives
• Self-reflection and interpersonal multi-cultural sensitivity
• Evidence-based multicultural communication skills
• Strategic supervision practice strategies to enhance multicultural supervision processes
