Supervision CEU: Navigating Tough Conversations

Supervision in behavior analysis is, at its core, a communication-dependent enterprise. Every feedback conversation, every performance correction, every professional boundary discussion, and every honest exchange about clinical disagreement requires the supervisor to choose between comfortable avoidance and uncomfortable honesty.

Course Description

No, you're not "fine." You know those uncomfortable and potentially challenging conversations you've been avoiding that are building resentment inside and maybe even keeping you up at night? Ready to start showing up for yourself yet? This session will be centered on the potential of supervision in facilitating honest and courageous conversations. It will invite supervisors to step away from the facade of "being fine" and explore the discomfort that can arise from avoiding challenging discussions. This session will also provide a supportive environment for supervisors to learn how to show up for themselves, become more honest, and confidently ask for what they need, even when rejection is on the line. Through this talk, supervisors will gain insights into strategies to have authentic conversations with themselves, and techniques to remain compassionate, clear, and firm in their communication. The talk will emphasize the significance of setting boundaries, expressing needs, and fostering open dialogue in the supervisory relationship. It all starts with having a conversation with yourself. Let's talk.

What You'll Learn

  1. Explain the importance of self-awareness and self-advocacy in the supervisory role.
  2. Enhance confidence and self-assurance in expressing needs and desires within the supervisory context.
  3. Identify potential barriers to honest and courageous conversations and develop strategies to overcome them.
