Research has shown that proficiency does not automatically increase with experience. Contrary to many professions, most psychotherapists do not increase in their effectiveness no matter how long they are practicing! Also, supervision, while a longstanding requirement in the field of psychotherapy, has not been shown to be innately impactful in improving the effectiveness of psychotherapists. For those that have practiced for a long time or supervised students these research results may be discouraging. However, psychotherapists such as Dr. Wampold have dedicated themselves to providing guidance for how psychotherapists can move from good to great.  For example, Dr. Wampold has demonstrated that what is necessary for improvement is intentional and structured clinical supervision and ongoing practice feedback. In this webinar, Dr. Carissa Muth will present and evidence-based framework for providing clinical supervision to both students and practicing psychotherapists in order to defeat the common effect of skill stagnation. The webinar will be practical and focused on skills that can be implemented immediately so participants can leave with tools to improve their own practice and the practice of those they supervise.
