Clinical supervision may emphasize technical proficiency, yet the most profound influence on supervisory success is who you are and how you show up in the room. By developing a deeper understanding of your personal presence, power, and capacity for growth, you can transform the supervisory experience for both you and your supervisees.
This course offers a unique chance to explore the intentional use of self in clinical supervision, inviting you to discover new ways of relating, teaching, and guiding that go beyond technique. Join us and enrich your professional journey while helping your supervisees develop into confident, effective clinicians.
Amie Bryant, LCSW, CAS, ACS brings over a decade of experience in private practice, university counseling, and clinical training to this course. Her extensive background in relational approaches, EMDR, integrated healthcare, and supervision uniquely positions her to guide participants in examining the powerful role of self-awareness in clinical oversight. With a passion for cognitive-behavioral strategies and relational care, Amie’s expertise aligns perfectly with the key themes and objectives of this training.
Through a blend of reflective exercises, case discussions, and practical strategies, participants will learn how intentional self-awareness can elevate supervisory relationships. This course offers clear, actionable steps to navigate power dynamics, cultural considerations, and identity as powerful tools for growth. By taking this course, you’ll gain valuable insights to foster a more resonant and impactful supervisory experience.
Instructor
Amie Bryant is a Licensed Clinical Social Worker, Certified Addictions Specialist, EMDRIA Certified Therapist and Approved Consultant, and Approved Clinical Supervisor, specializing in work with adults and older adolescents. She has been in private practice for over 10 years and also spent 10 years working at the Fort Lewis College Counseling Center as a counselor, Training Coordinator for the Graduate Clinical Training Program, and ultimately as Director of the Center. Her previous experience includes work in schools, integrated healthcare, wilderness therapy, juvenile detention, emergency services, adult outpatient mental health, substance use treatment and prevention, and as Adjunct Faculty for the University of Denver Graduate School of Social Work Four Corners Program.
