The Approved Supervisor Refresher Course
Maureen Duffy, Ph.D.
To maintain the highest quality
supervisors in the field, the AAMFT requires AAMFT Approved
Supervisors to take a refresher course prior to the renewal of
their designation. This one-day course is designed
specifically to meet that requirement and to keep participants
on the cutting edge of clinical supervision practice.
The
course will include case examples, didactic and interactional
instruction methods and will focus on current resources
available to supervisors, management of ethical and legal
issues likely to arise during supervision, utilization of
supervision contracts, cultural competence in supervision and
therapy, and discussion of the current Approved Supervisor
requirements.
Participants will:
- review
currently available clinical supervision resources and
information, with an emphasis on the literature from the
past five years.
-
discuss ways to manage difficult ethical and legal issues
that arise in the course of supervision.
- learn
about the importance of contracts in supervision and review
the key elements necessary for creating a developmentally
appropriate supervision contract.
-
consider ways to address multiple cultural, gender, and
socioeconomic issues that are inherent in and have an impact
on therapy and supervision.
- learn
about the current standards for becoming and maintaining the
AAMFT Approved Supervisor designation, with particular
attention to the Approved Supervisor’s role as a mentor.
Participants are strongly encouraged to
bring resources that would enhance and deepen the learning
experience for everyone involved (e.g., samples of the forms
they use; challenging supervisory situations for discussion)
and be prepared to share their own supervisory expertise.
