Clinical Supervision
Clinical supervision is an important component of therapist training and ongoing professional development. It involves a therapist receiving guidance, support, and feedback from a qualified and experienced licensed clinician to enhance their clinical skills, improve their knowledge of evidence-based practices, and maintain ethical standards in their practice. These are essential for a clinician to provide quality mental health services.
