“…Several scales in J. M. Bernard and Goodyear's (2019) Fundamentals of Clinical Supervision could provide essential feedback to group supervisors, such as the Supervisory Satisfaction Scale (Ladany et al, 1996) and the Group Supervision Scale (Ancinue, 2002). In addition, using the Multicultural Supervision Competencies Questionnaire (Wong & Wong, 2003) that includes questions about the supervisor's level of openness and respect for cultural difference could go a long way to help group supervisors assess how they are doing and how they might provide more support for diverse individuals. The ability to seek out and incorporate group supervisee feedback will relate directly to the supervisor's multicultural comfort (Davis et al, 2018), especially when supervisees raise areas for growth.…”

Group supervision is an extensively used format across many training agencies, yet it has been largely disregarded in theory and research within the supervision literature. In fact, the Guidelines for Clinical Supervision in Health Service Psychology (American Psychological Association, 2015a) mentions group supervision only one time, despite the fact that supervision within a group context includes competencies and considerations that are both unique and essential to the effective and ethical practice of group supervision. Because supervision conducted with multiple supervisees is multilayered and-as a resultmore complex, group supervisors need to develop special skills that go beyond the supervision dyad. This article looks to the literature on supervision-both individual and group modalities-and on group psychotherapy to highlight the practices and processes that set group supervision apart. Building upon the seven supervision competencies outlined by the American Psychological Association (Supervisor Competence; Diversity; Supervisory Relationship; Professionalism; Assessment/Evaluation/Feedback; Professional Competence Problems; and Ethical, Legal and Regulatory Considerations), which currently concentrate exclusively on individual supervision, we extend each area to include distinct features of group supervision. We include recommendations for supervisor training and for the application of effective group supervision practices, as well as ideas on how best to approach the formal adoption of group supervision guidelines for psychotherapists. Our hope is that, either in a revision of the Guidelines for Clinical Supervision in Health Service Psychology or in a freestanding supplement to the Guidelines, guidance for group supervision will be more explicitly included. Clinical Impact StatementQuestion: How is clinical group supervision unique from clinical supervision conducted within a dyad? Findings: Group supervision, widely practiced, has important differences with individual supervision that have implications for effective and ethical training and practice. Meaning: Supervisors should consider the multitude of important complexities and strengths that occur in group supervision that go beyond individual supervision such as group dynamics, the supervisor and member relationships, the purpose, feedback to and evaluations of group supervisees to name a few. Next Steps: Ongoing research is needed on effective practices of group supervision and an expansion of the supervision competencies, or a new set of guidelines crafted that center on group supervision.

“…As cultural humility inversely predicted supervisee nondisclosure through a more positive supervisory working alliance in this study, supervisors could model for supervisees how to engage with others (e.g., clients, supervisees, colleagues, staff, community members) in a humble manner (e.g., openness to explore others' sociocultural backgrounds, asking questions when uncertain, expressing curiosity about and interest in others' worldviews), which may benefit supervision, clinical work, and interactions with others (Hook et al, 2013). Since supervisees may have more training in multicultural supervision than their supervisors (Wong & Wong, 2020), training supervisors in microaggressions and microinterventions may also be beneficial (Sue et al, 2019).…”

Given that at least half of supervisees (therapist trainees) never have their clinical work monitored or observed, supervisees who withhold salient information in clinical supervision compromise supervisors’ ability to monitor client welfare and promote supervisees’ professional development. Attempting to further understand the factors explaining supervisee nondisclosure, we tested the supervisory working alliance as a mediator of the hypothesized inverse relations of cultural humility and collaborative supervision with supervisee nondisclosure (supervision-related and clinically-related nondisclosure) among a diverse sample of 214 supervisees in applied psychology and allied mental health programs. Results supported the hypotheses that (a) descriptively, supervision-related nondisclosure was more prominent than clinically-related nondisclosure; (b) cultural humility substantially inversely predicted supervisee nondisclosure; and (c) the supervisory working alliance fully mediated the inverse relations of cultural humility and collaborative supervision with supervisee nondisclosure. Understanding the mechanisms underlying supervisee nondisclosure has broad implications for clinicians and researchers alike.

“…38 Nancy was also heavily involved in civic affairs. She was one of the first members to join the Lake Hill Women's Institute, 39 an organization that brought women together as part of a larger movement to “promote education and health among rural women.” 40 It held educational classes and raised money to support local hospitals and women and children's health. As noted by historian Karen Flynn, participation in community organizing was a marker of middle-class status, 26 evident with the Alexanders.…”

Black nurses are at the margins of the annals of history and there is a dearth of historical accounts of their work. Drawing on our historical research about Black nurses in British Columbia (Canada) between 1845 and 1910, we point to the complexity of Black women's lives and argue that Black nurses disrupted the conceptualization of Blackness and Black womanhood of the time. We demonstrate the vital contributions of Black nurses to the health of communities and add to existing scholarship that redefines the nursing narrative: one in which white nurses are not the start and end point of history.
