Supervision in Clinical Practice

Since the publication of the first edition of this book supervision has become of even greater significance in health, education and social care settings, with continuing pace in the trend towards mandatory registration, managed care and clinical governance. This fully updated and expanded edition includes new chapters on issues of diversity and the managerial role of the supervisor in context. Packed with practical examples in the key areas of personal and professional development, Joyce Scaife and her contributors draw on three decades of clinical experience to explore frequently encountered dilemmas including: how supervisors facilitate learning; the ethical bases of supervision; creating and maintaining a good working alliance; how supervisors can balance management and supervision roles; and, working equitably in an increasingly diverse and pluralistic world. "Supervision in Clinical Practice" offers a range of suggestions for providing supervision that are stimulating, creative and fun, using methods that ensure safe and open practice. It is an indispensable text for supervisors and supervisees who practice clinically in a range of professions, including applied psychology, counselling, psychotherapy, psychiatry, nursing, and social work.

"With the expansion of psychological therapy services within the UK, it will be essential that therapists receive quality supervision to ensure that the public experience safe and effective therapies. This second edition is a major revision and should be considered essential reading for those involved in expanding access to psychological therapy services. As well as providing a highly accessible overview of clinical supervision, it also has been made contemporary by embracing issues around case management and some of the technological challenges to supervision. A source of much excellent and practical advice, written in an engaging and creative style." - Professor Graham Turpin - Director, Clinical Psychology Unit, University of Sheffield. "This book is readable and useful to practitioners in many contexts, including mental health nursing, counselling and psychotherapy, psychology and social work. In my view this puts Scaife in a quartet with Inskipp and Proctor, Hawkins and Shohet and Page and Wosket as the four 21st century UK resources for supervisors. I shall encourage my colleagues, supervisees and trainee supervisors to read it." - Penny Henderson, Therapy Today, December, 2008
