Clinical supervision is a powerful space for learning, growth, and accountability — and supervisors carry a unique ethical responsibility in guiding the development of other professionals. This 3-part series provides a comprehensive framework for approaching supervision with integrity, grounding participants in ethical standards while offering tools for real-world application.

The series begins by establishing foundational knowledge of ethical practice in supervision, including a review of professional codes, regulatory guidelines, and the legal responsibilities supervisors face. From there, it moves into the complex terrain of ethical dilemmas, exploring how personal values, identities, and power dynamics shape decision-making. Participants will be introduced to a structured framework for navigating dilemmas with greater clarity and alignment. In the final session, learners will engage in peer consultation, applying what they’ve learned to real or hypothetical supervisory challenges in a collaborative, supportive environment.

Whether you’re a new or experienced supervisor, this series offers practical tools and reflective guidance to help you lead with greater confidence, insight, and ethical awareness.
