How is Florida Mental Health Licensure Services different from other providers teaching the Qualified Supervisor Training?
- We provide you with a Clinical Supervision/Professional Development Manual and instructions for use with supervisees. This manual is designed to become a unique, personal, reference manual for the supervisee. It has been extensively field-tested and has gained excellent reviews.
- We will provide you with already made supervision contracts, consent forms, supervision notes template and much more.
- We use multiple modalities for teaching which include role plays, vignettes, videos of actual supervision from different supervision models, power point and group discussions. We believe in learning from best practices of others and using the group to open discussion of how supervision may be applied to multiple different types of professional settings.
Currently this training is being offered Virtually live through Zoom. We have several breaks throughout the day to stay refreshed. We have several break out groups for discussion of best practices and how to handle tough supervison situations.
