Preview Supervision in the Mental Health Professions: A Practitioner's Guide
Supervision in the Mental Health Professions A practitioner’s guide Supervision is of increasing significance in the practice of mental health professionals, especially since the advent of voluntary and mandatory registration, managed care and clinical governance. Little, however, has been written to address the practical and theoretical needs and questions of those involved. In Supervision in the Mental Health Professions, Joyce Scaife, along with her guest contributors, draws on over two decades of experience to illustrate ways of thinking about and doing supervision. Using practical examples, she explores often-encountered dilemmas, including: • How can supervisors facilitate learning? • What are the ethical bases of supervision? • What helps to create a good working alliance? Supervision in the Mental Health Professions is a comprehensive, practical and indispensable text for supervisors and supervisees involved in mental healthcare, including clinical psychology, counselling, psychotherapy, counselling psychology, psychiatry, nursing and social work. Joyce Scaife is a Consultant Clinical Psychologist with North Derbyshire Community Health Care NHS Trust and Director of Clinical Practice for the Doctor of Clinical Psychology training course at the University of Sheffield. She has over twenty years of experience as a supervisor of clinical practice.
