DAY III: Thursday | Using Group Supervision for Enhancing Professional Repertoires
Since the earliest days of our profession, group supervision has been used to support counselors in developing the necessary skills of ethical decision-making, observation, case formulation, technique implementation, self-awareness, sharing ideas, and more. Join us as we explore the benefits and limitations of this format and discuss ways we might incorporate ideas drawn from several models of group supervision.
