Course Description

A strong supervisory alliance can predict better supervision experiences and supervisee growth in the mental health field. Alternatively, a negative supervisory alliance can lead to a bad supervisory experience, poor performance, and supervisee burnout.

Included are ways to measure and improve the supervisory alliance.

At the completion of this workshop, participants will be able to:

  1. Use an evidence-based measurement to evaluate the supervisory alliance
  2. Evaluate three deficits in supervisory alliance research
  3. Explain three benefits of having a strong supervisory alliance
