Promoting competent and flourishing life-long practice for psychologists: A communitarian perspective.

Abstract: Based on awareness of the challenges inherent in the practice of psychology there is a burgeoning interest in ensuring that psychologists who serve the public remain competent. These challenges include remaining current in our technical skills and maintaining sufficient personal wellness over the course of our careers. However, beyond merely maintaining competence, we encourage psychologists to envision flourishing lifelong practice that incorporates positive relationships, enhancement of meaning, and positive… Show more

“…A strategic, integrated strength-based approach to our training, collegial support and continuing professional development may offer new potential for preempting and addressing the demands of our profession and preventing the ethical collateral of burnout. This is consistent with the communitarian notion of ethics and competence constellations designed to encourage “thriving” and prevent burnout by maximizing mutual support at all levels of the psychotherapy community (see Figure 1; Johnson, Barnett, Elman, Forrest, & Kaslow, 2012, 2013; Wise & Reuman, 2019). Specifically, we propose the following 5-P network model: Promotion of person-centered workplaces that support well-being and ethical practice;Prioritization of peer and collegial networks ;Prioritization of professional advocacy in relation to well-being in the workplace;Prevention through responsive preventative training ; andPersonalization of approaches to burnout prevention and psychotherapist self-care .…”

“…By extending the concept of continuing education to embrace a broader array of professional development activities, Horn and colleagues hope to bring practical experience to bear in building professional competencies, while harvesting the developing lessons that empirical literatures yield regarding the particular activities that align with requisite competencies. Wise and Reuman (2019) broaden and deepen this endorsement to include the critical role of interpersonal features in relation to their development of a communitarian approach to ongoing professional development. Signposts regarding the prophylactic impact of interpersonal variables in continuing competence are evident everywhere; even mere membership in psychological associations is related to lower rates of practice violations (Knapp & Vandecreek, 2012).…”

“…Self-care practices were also found to be associated with improvement in overall mental, physical, and spiritual well-being (Christopher & Maris, 2010; Harrison & Westwood, 2009). Taken together, self-care is considered a crucial component to not only avoid negative consequences in professional functioning but also to assure competent and flourishing lifelong practices (Wise et al, 2019).…”

“…A lack of self-care in health service professionals has been considered a cause of compromised quality of services and burnout, and sufficient self-care has been suggested to be part of ethical practices (Barnett, Baker, Elman, & Schoener, 2007; Wise & Reuman, 2019). There is a compelling need to study self-care to increase the awareness and use of self-care in professional training and continuous development throughout the health service career.…”
