Synopsis

The third edition of this book is an updated and expanded presentation of the widely used Integrative Developmental Model of Supervision. In contrast to other volumes on clinical supervision, Stoltenberg and McNeill present a comprehensive, time-tested, and empirically investigated model of supervision, rather than a broad summary of other existing or historical approaches. In addition to presenting a model of therapist development that spans beginning through advanced training, the book integrates theory and research from numerous perspectives, including learning, cognition, and emotion, as well as an up-to-date treatment of research directly addressing the supervision process. The model also examines the role of clinical supervision from an evidence-based practice perspective and addresses issues of common factors in therapy. The impact of cultural issues in supervision and training, as well as recent work in a competencies approach to supervision and trainee development, are also examined.

About this title

From the Inside Flap

Since the classic book Supervising Counselors and Therapists was first published, the field has undergone dramatic changes. The supervision of counselors and therapists--once strictly within the domain of the training of students--has now become a career-long professional activity.In IDM Supervision, the authors expand on their original version of the widely-praised Integrated Developmental Model (IDM) of supervision. As the book reveals, IDM is a proven, adaptable model for supervising therapists at all levels of experience across disciplines and therapeutic orientations. Completely revised and updated, IDM Supervision is based on the authors' most current research. It outlines specific approaches, interventions, and techniques most appropriate for each stage of the three levels of development across the overriding structures: Self and Other Awareness, Motivation, and Autonomy.IDM Supervision reveals how to apply the developmental theory through every step of the supervision process and offers illustrative case material. The authors give supervisors guidance for creating an environment that encourages continued growth, including essential information on setting up sessions and forming initial assessments of competence.Comprehensive in scope, IDM Supervision also explores how issues of diversity can affect the supervisory relationship and offers a thoughtful analysis of the ethical and legal issues that inform the supervision process in clinical settings.
