CLINICAL SUPERVISION

My approach to clinical supervision is to create a supportive environment that fosters growth and development for associate therapists. My goal is to guide and empower by encouraging exploration of strengths, addressing areas of growth, and cultivating your therapeutic style. This collaborative journey is aimed at honing skills, enhancing confidence, and ultimately, helping you flourish in your roles as compassionate and effective therapists.
— Helen Chuong Brody

KEY to FUTURE SUCCESS

“When done well, clinical supervision is key to the thriving and future success of up-and-coming practitioners. Under the wings of a trusted, knowledgeable and competent supervisor, a novice therapist's intellectual understanding transforms into real-life interventions that can profoundly affect others' lives for the better.” - Tori DeAngelis, American Psychological Association, September 2014, Vol 45, No. 8


APPROACH & FOCUS AREAS

My approach includes attention to:

  • The supervisory relationship: collaborative relationship that promotes the supervisees’ competence, including clearly articulating responsibilities and expectations of both parties, and regularly reviewing the effectiveness of the supervisory relationship and address issues that arise

  • Assessment/ Evaluation/ Feedback: defining supervisee learning goals and supervisor areas of competence, openness and transparency in feedback and assessment of supervisee’s progress and the quality of the supervision, and regularly incorporate feedback to improve progress, competence and the supervisory relationship

  • Law & ethics: modeling ethical practice and decision making while operating in accord with the legal and ethical guidelines within the scope of licensure/ pre-licensure and relevant federal, state, and other jurisdictional laws and regulations

  • Diversity: developing and maintaining self-awareness regarding diversity competence, including attitudes, the effects of bias, prejudice, and stereotyping

  • Professionalism: striving to model professionalism in interactions, attitudes and education
