< Back

Short Description

An ethics-focused session on supervisory responsibilities related to scope of practice, competence, documentation, and gatekeeping, centered on protecting clients while supporting supervisee growth.

Learning Objectives

• Distinguish supervision responsibilities from therapy, consultation, and administrative management.
• Apply an ethical decision-making process to common supervision dilemmas (scope, competence, impairment, dual roles).

Each topic can be adapted to your audience, timeframe, and delivery format, with a minimum of 1 hour of instruction. The summary on this page is intentionally brief; detailed descriptions, learning objectives, and sample agendas are available upon request.
