Snapshot of Clinical Supervision in Counseling and Counselor Education

The Juggling Act of Supervision in Community Mental Health: Implications for Supporting Evidence-Based Treatment

“…In a supervision hour (the typical duration), our results suggest that about twenty minutes would be spent on these two functions. While individual workplace-based supervision is one hour each week in theory , in many community settings supervision may not actually occur on a weekly basis (see Borders, 2005; Crespi & Dube, 2005), further reducing time for these functions. This was true in our sample, as 20% of the clinicians reported receiving individual supervision only every other week or less frequently.…”

The Supervisory Relationship: A Conceptual and Psychometric Review of Measures

“…The supervisory relationship, however, is a broad, nuanced construct and one that is difficult to describe in full (Borders, ; Borders & Brown, ). The supervisory relationship incorporates many related constructs, such as relationship development phases, multicultural influences, parallel processes, transference and countertransference issues, as well as idiosyncratic supervisee and supervisor characteristics (Bernard & Goodyear, ; Goodyear, ; Ladany & Muse‐Burke, ; Muse‐Burke, Ladany, & Deck, ).…”

Supervision by Doctoral Students: A Study of Supervisee Satisfaction and Self-Efficacy, and Comparison with Faculty Supervision Outcomes

“…The inability to secure a large sample of master's student supervisees and the relatively low sample size of supervisees of doctoral students is a significant limitation. A further limitation was the relatively small number of male respondents (8.2%) in the study, although the under-representation of males in the sample reflects the gender imbalance documented in the broader population of counseling students (Borders, 2005;Hollis, 2000). In addition, the findings in this study may not be generalizable to other supervision environments, such as on-site, group, or triadic supervision.…”
