Strategies and Methods of Effective Supervision. ERIC Digest.
Hart, Gordon M.
A variety of strategies and methods are available to supervisors for use with counselors whom they supervise. This digest provides a summary designed to acquaint supervisors with techniques for enhancing the counseling behavior of their supervisees while also considering individual learning characteristics as depicted by the supervisee's developmental level. The use of strategies examining a supervisee's counseling behavior with current clients allows the supervisor to correct any error in assessment, diagnosis, or treatment of the client. The digest discusses methods of improving clinical competence and stresses the importance of examining actual counselor-client interactions. Methods of achieving this are explored, including the use of audio- and video-tapes of sessions and live supervision using television or one-way mirrors. A number of developmental considerations, depending on what works best for a particular supervisee, are addressed. Contains 7 references. (NB)
