The purpose, goals and objectives of supervision include monitoring and ensuring the welfare of clients seen by the supervisee, promoting development of the supervisee's professional counselor identity and competence, fulfilling any academic requirements of the supervisee, and fulfulling any requirements in preparation for the supervisee's pursuit of the state licensure. Dr. Smalls uses an eclectic approach combining models of supervision through discussion of professional experiences, expression of personal reactions, and a review of video-taped or live sessions.
Feedback will be provided to supervisee during each session evaluating clinical skills and professional development growth. The supervisor will examine the client's presenting issues and treatment plans with the supervisee, challenge supervisee to justify approach and techniques used, monitor supervisee's basic attending skills, support supervisee's development as a professional counselor, intervene when client welfare is at risk, and ensure ethical guidelines are upheld. Dr. Smalls follows the American Counseling Association's (ACA) Code of Ethics.
