Clinical Supervision and Dual Diagnosis (I/DD & Co-Occurring MH) – Keys to Expanded Practice Options
Clinicians who provide Behavior Support for people with Dual Diagnosis (I/DD and co-occurring mental health concerns) require supervision by Licensed Psychologists. There are almost no guidelines that regulate this type supervision, and very few Hoosier Psychologists include this supervision in their practice. Through a two-year grant-funded project, the presenter is helping Indiana develop this quality-component of Behavior Support. The presentation will introduce the basic concepts of Behavior Support, what type of Master’s level clinicians provide the service, and the basics on how Psychologists/HSPP provide clinical Supervision. Included will be some examples, including a demonstration. Please join this low-key presentation where you might learn something new. You may even discover an innovative way to expand your own practice that includes in-person and virtual supervision options.
Learning Objectives:
By completing this program, participants will able to:
1. Describe how to integrate this unique type of supervision into one’s practice.
2. List at least three ways to improve how licensed supervision is implemented for this underserved population.
3. Summarize at least three “best practices” in clinical supervision.
