Roy A. Bean & Sean D. Davis 
Clinical Supervision Activities for Increasing Competence and Self-Awareness [EPUB ebook] 

Cultivate self-awareness, empathy, and clinical competence in
the mental health professionals you supervise

Providing tested guidance for clinical supervisors of mental
health professionals, editors Roy A. Bean, Sean D. Davis, and
Maureen P. Davey draw from their own backgrounds in training,
private practice, and academe, as well as from an international
panel of experts representing various mental health fields to
provide activities and best practices that allow therapists to
better serve an increasingly diverse set of clients and issues.

While clinical skills are easily observed, the more subtle areas
of self-awareness, or exploring unexamined judgments are more
difficult to spot and to provide supervision and guidance for. The
numerous experiential activities included will help supervisors and
the mental health professional they supervise develop their skills
and techniques around:

* Intuition

* Empathy

* Self-awareness

* Mindfulness

* Multicultural awareness

* Perspective taking

The book covers both clinical as well as diversity-focused
competence and awareness, and suggests various forms of activities,
including research exercises, reflection, journaling, and more.
Each activity includes measurement metrics as well as additional
resources that help clinicians identify the best activity for a
given situation. Appropriate for clinicians at every level and from
a multitude of backgrounds, these tried and tested best practices
can be used in clinical supervision, as a class assignment, or to
facilitate professional growth.
