Date/Time
4 Supervision CEs
Instructor: Carolyn Knight, PhD, MSW
In this discussion-oriented workshop, Dr. Knight introduces participants to the trauma-informed (TI) perspective and its core principles. Carolyn explains the application of the model to clinical supervision, identifying skills that reflect its principles and assist supervisees in adopting a TI lens in their practice. This includes skills needed to assist supervisees in managing manifestations of indirect trauma, which is their affective reactions that stem from their work with trauma survivors.
Dr. Knight will integrate current theory and research into the discussion and provide case material to illustrate the application of the TI formulation to practice and supervision. Participants will be encouraged to share their questions, concerns, and examples from their practice as supervisors.
Learning Objectives:
Describe the principles of the trauma-informed formulation and their application to clinical practice and supervision.
Identify conceptual models of clinical supervision that reflect and promote a trauma-informed approach in supervision.
Understand indirect trauma and the role supervisors play in assisting supervisees in managing their reactions to their work.
Distinguish core supervisory skills that promote a trauma-informed orientation in supervision and assist supervisees in adopting the orientation in practice.
