7 Steps for Onboarding a Therapist into clinical supervision — Family Therapy Basics
Clinical supervisors are lifelines for therapists. As a newly graduated therapist seeking licensure, my supervisors guided me in theory, practice, self-of-the-therapist matters, and more. I not only felt competent once I received my license, I felt confident. I decided to become an AAMFT-Approved supervisor, and a supervisor for supervisors, because of the mentoring and valuable direction I received as a supervisee.

Mistakes to Avoid as a New Clinical Supervisor
Expanding your career as a therapist into one that includes providing clinical supervision is an exciting change!

Evidence-Based Practice: An Opportunity for Continuing Education Providers
By Robert Mullen, Director, National Center for Evidence-Based Practice in Communication Disorders, ASHA Evidence-based practice (EBP) has emerged as an important principle in the delivery of speech-language pathology and audiology services in the past decade. ASHA uses the following definition of EBP: the integration of research evidence with practitioner expertise and client preferences and values into the process of making clinical decisions. Note that although this is referred to as "evidence-based" practice, the roles of clinician expertise and client preferences and values are equally important. The notion that external research evidence somehow "trumps" all other considerations is one of the big myths surrounding EBP.
Cultural Competence Check-Ins
Cultural competence, cultural humility, and culturally responsive services all are vital components to each professional interaction. ASHA has developed resources to help you reflect on your current level of cultural competence to improve service delivery. Cultural humility is a dynamic and complex process requiring ongoing self-assessment and continuous expansion of one's cultural knowledge. Cultural humility forces us to consider power balances and imbalances in our interactions providing a structure to examine personal and institutional accountability. Cultural competence is a necessary component in order to achieve clinical competence.
