Motivational Interviewing in Clinical Supervision
Clinical supervisors are responsible for multiple tasks including ensuring ethical practice, adherence to organizational policies, enhancing skill development, and addressing clinician personal well-being. Surprisingly, there has been no consolidation of evidence around the success of any given model of supervision. Motivational interviewing (MI) has demonstrated success in multiple settings where change is the desired outcome. During this webinar, we will describe the role of clinical supervision, discuss three typical supervision styles, explain how MI can be used by a supervisor and analyze a case example of how MI helps a supervisor respond effectively to supervisee “resistance”.
