COUN 5590 - Clinical Supervision I and II

3 Credits (Minimum) 3 Credits (Maximum)

This course is designed to help the counselor learn the models of supervision and the tools necessary for supervision practice. The first part of this course will explore supervision as a process to tailor theories to the supervisee’s developmental level of experience, including supervisory practices, supervision contracts, and work verification practices. The second portion of the course is intended to reinforce the motivational interviewing skills of the supervisor. This portion will blend motivational interviewing through the use of the MIA:STEP (Motivational Interviewing Assessment: Supervisory Tools for Enhancing Proficiency) process as a format of supervision. Videotaping and feedback will be used to demonstrate those skills in practice.
