Description
Supervision isn’t just about guidance; it’s evaluation, accountability, and sometimes, tough conversations. And one of the most difficult yet essential tasks for supervisors is recognizing when a supervisee needs remediation and knowing how to respond.
In this session, Dr. Kate McLellan Walker – author of The Clinical Supervision Survival Guide – cuts through the confusion with a practical, step-by-step approach to:
- Set clear expectations and evaluation benchmarks for supervisees from the start
- Deal with common supervisee struggles via an easy-to-implement remediation plan
- Support supervisees while you protect their clients and reduce your liability
