Development Model
Reflection Questions:
- Think back to your first experiences in your counseling program and your first clients.
- What do you remember thinking and feeling then?
Activity: The Case of Nina
- Do you think the counselor is at a beginning, middle, or later stage of development?
- What characteristics of that development stage did you notice?
- How might your developmental assessment of the counselor inform your plans for the upcoming supervision session?
Reflection questions:
- The goal of clinical supervision is to create a learning environment that matches the needs of the counselor.
- How does an integration of the discrimination model and developmental models help you plan toward this goal?
- What integration of roles, focus areas, and developmental characteristics will help us look at how to create change and allow our supervisee to grow?
Activity: The Case of Nina
Thinking about the counselor, Emily, and based on the three points you identified that you want to address with her, think about these questions:
- Which format of role play might you decide to use with the counselor during your upcoming supervision session?
- Why did you make that choice? What is your goal and intention?
