Day 1
Breakout Session #3: More Than a Check-In: Best Practices for Ethical, Developmental Clinical Supervision
Dustan Toth, MS, LCPC
Supervision plays a critical role in developing competent, ethical, and confident counselors. When supervision lacks structure or clear ethical grounding, it can hinder growth and compromise professional readiness. This workshop supports counselors, supervisors, and educators in strengthening supervision practices through ethical, developmental, and competency-based approaches.
Participants will explore best practices across key areas, including roles, feedback, case conceptualization, cultural responsiveness, and preparation for independent practice. Attendees will leave with practical tools to enhance supervision quality and support effective, ethical clinical work.
