"This book shows students how to establish effective working supervisory relationships and understand and make use of formative and summative evaluations.

Clinical training is challenging for supervisees, many of whom are unsure how to navigate the supervisory process and effectively build clinical skills and professional competence. While research and book-length texts on effective supervision have proliferated, these are typically directed towards supervisors and clinical educators. Since it was first published in 2004, Falender and Shafranske's Clinical Supervision: A Competency-Based Approach has become the standard, go-to resource on supervisory and clinical competence. Now the authors have created an empirically-supported yet practical book for student and interns.

 

Written in an interactive style with ""real life"" case examples and reflection activities, this book is empirically-supported yet highly practical, this is an essential text that normalizes the anxieties and conflicts that typically arise during supervision.

Reviews for Getting the Most Out of Clinical Training and Supervision: A Guide for Practicum Students and Interns

Quite simply, this book is one of the best of its kind, geared specifically to clinical psychology trainees who want to get the most from their formal supervision. Although the primary audience for the book is practicum students and interns, supervisors themselves should read it to improve their own skills. The book is so good that I recommend it as a standard text for trainees with supervisors within psychology training programs. Truly, this is a masterful resource that explains and makes manifest the art and science of supervision. -New England Psychologist
