Intern Supervision

Interns receive two hours of formal individual supervision per week with their primary supervisors.  While in clinic, supervision and oversight are always available from staff psychologists.  Interns will also receive secondary supervision from master level BHCs and medical providers.

Top Notch Supervisors

We are very proud of the supervision that we’re able to provide. We have a variety of psychologists with different backgrounds and interests that make our team diverse. Our supervision is flexible and oriented around the learning interests of our interns, while at the same time ensuring that basic professional competencies are achieved. Further, interns are regularly shadowed throughout the year by the CHCW supervisor team. Interns are also exposed to the concept of “precepting” that requires trainees to precept patient visits in the moment and receive tangible and meaningful feedback while completing visits.

Our supervisors also are involved in several national, regional, and state leadership positions and organizations, as well as regularly publish on topics related to PCBH, contextualism, single session, leadership, and much more. Please check out the individual supervisor bios below!
