Notice
Supervision is the relationship between the qualified supervisor and registered intern that promotes the development of responsibility, skills, knowledge, attitudes and adherence to ethical, legal and regulatory standards in the practice of clinical social work, marriage and family therapy and mental health counseling. Supervision is contact between an intern and a supervisor during which the intern apprises the supervisor of the diagnosis and treatment of each client, client cases are discussed, the supervisor provides the intern with oversight and guidance in diagnosing, treating and dealing with clients, and the supervisor evaluates the intern’s performance. At the end of supervision, the Qualified Supervisor (QS) must report supervision hours and the performance of the registered intern in professional activities as measured against generally prevailing peer performance. This information is used by the counseling board to determine the intern’s ability to practice and/or counsel independently.
