Masterclass Topic 2:
Coaching Psychologists Using the Science of What Works

Supervision is evolving. The new PsyBA competencies make it clear: supervising isn’t just about observing growth, it’s about coaching it. And one of the most powerful drivers of clinician development is the use of systematic outcome monitoring and client feedback to shape learning in real time.

This workshop gives supervisors the tools and confidence to embrace the cutting edge of professional practice.

You’ll discover how feedback-informed approaches:

  • Reduce client drop-out and therapeutic “drift”
  • Accelerate supervisee skill acquisition using deliberate practice
  • Build cultures of accountability and continuous improvement
  • Foster growth mindset and embracing feedback as a gift
  • Protect supervisors ethically by providing objective markers of progress


Across the day you will not only explore the landmark research behind feedback and outcome systems, you’ll practice how to coach supervisees in applying these methods — leaving with actionable techniques you can implement tomorrow.
