Supervision: Foundations of Supervision (May 16-17)

Virtual Training Class

NASWDC Chapter 0 162

This course fulfills the training requirement mandated by the Virginia Board of Social Work to provide clinical supervision for LCSW candidates. The Virginia Board of Counseling updated their regulations for LPC and LMFT licensure, however, now stating: 

For LPC and LMFT licensure, your supervisor must hold an active, unrestricted license as a LPC or LMFT only, in the jurisdiction where the supervision is being provided. At least 100 of the supervision hours must be supervised by a LPC. **Previously approved supervisors who are substance abuse treatment practitioners, school psychologists, clinical psychologists, clinical social workers, or psychiatrists can provide supervision until August 24, 2017.

“Am I Doing This Right?”: Peer Support for Supervisors

Virtual Training Class

NASWDC Chapter 0 228

Oftentimes after members take our popular Foundations of Supervision course and begin supervising LCSW candidates, new questions come up.  

  • Am I doing this right? 
  • How do I navigate differences in opinion when my supervisee and I practice different modalities? 
  • What if my supervisee and I disagree on an approach due to our cultural differences? 

These types of questions are common but also nuanced. Insight from one of our instructors and a group of your fellow supervisors can help. That’s why we developed our free, members-only “Peer Support for Supervisors” sessions. 

For these 1-1.5 hour-sessions, the instructor will select a general topic area to focus on and then solicit questions from registered participants prior to the session. The instructor will then use these pre-submitted questions to guide the session and lead the discussion.   

On March 5 the general topic area will be "Navigating Supervision: Addressing Challenging, Contractual and Liability Concerns, and Theories in Supervision". Please include your questions/scenarios around this topic in your registration.
