S P R I N G 2 0 2 1 – I S S U E 7 1 1 "[Local Supervisor] is highly professional and personable, open to discussions about how to integrate interventions with diverse populations. [Local supervisor] provides ongoing training and, during COVID-19, was still offering training to increase our competency. [Local supervisor] has provided me with exceptional guidance on integrating art therapy and other complementary therapies into practice when working with diverse populations. [Local supervisor] has provided me with professional books and CE activities to ensure I feel competent and professional in my therapeutic practice." "My local supervisor has been great at being supportive, and yet allowing me to make my own decisions and formulate hypotheses for each client. [Local supervisor] has encouraged me to find and follow my own therapeutic model and had given me resources to help me succeed." "[Local supervisor] has been instrumental in helping learn the models and what works well with what types of challenges. [Local supervisor] has been great to role play with us and ask questions specific to the clients as we finish each session.

[Local supervisor] provides excellent feedback and has a structure to supervision that promotes growth and introspection. [Local supervisor] constantly provides virtual opportunities that speak on diversity and how therapists can educate themselves to become more competent in their practice." "My supervisor has been the best! [Local supervisor] truly has helped guide in all directions. [Local supervisor] has always been approachable, and [local supervisor] would always work with me on solving any problems that I ran into. [Local supervisor] would have me look at all solutions from different perspectives, rather than just telling me the answer. [Local supervisor] would provide me with both positive and negative feedback on the raw data and would work with me on my weaknesses. [Local supervisor] is very professional and understands family therapy. [Local supervisor] has helped me grow as a therapist." "I have had a few supervisors during my undergrad. [Local supervisor] is the best I have ever had.

If I could take [local supervisor] with me on the next portion of my journey, I would." "[Local supervisor] has been a real support for me during my practicum and internship courses by providing valuable feedback regarding my work with clients, helpful suggestions on my cases, resources, and building my confidence as a therapist. {local supervisor's] patience, calm demeanor, and non-judgmental attitude contributed to creating a safe space where I felt comfortable exploring my strengths and weaknesses as a student therapist. I am grateful [local supervisor] has agreed to continue our collaboration post-graduation from NCU as I work toward full licensure." "[Local supervisor] is very supportive and engaging, and [local supervisor] challenges me. Because supervision is via Zoom, if [local supervisor] believes I am not engaged, [they] will challenge me and ask me to present alternatives. [Local supervisor] is also very creative and supportive in terms of assisting with building the client base at [site]." "[Local supervisor] is a fantastic supervisor. Not only do I get individual supervision, but [they] also offer group supervision twice a month where I get to learn from other therapists and interns. [Local supervisor's] knowledge and experience is very diverse, and [local supervisor] is able to help me learn how to think systemically, both when treatment planning and also in the therapy room." "[Local supervisor] has walked me through the process of learning how to assess … and provide for [clients] in all areas. I appreciate all the training, time, and assistance [local supervisor] has extended and is continuing to do so, to me, during my internship at [site]. If there is something [local supervisor] is not sure of or does not know at the time in question, [local supervisor] is diligent in finding the answer for me."
