I\u2019ve benefited a great deal from the lessons of my supervisors. Some of their words from a decade ago still echo, and have become first principles I keep close in my own work. Most of us regard clinical supervision as integral to our professional development. It\u2019s hard to imagine not having someone to turn to for case consultation and guidance, especially when stuck in a rut and not making expected or desired progress with a particular client.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Given the benefit we often feel from clinical supervision, the logical next question is whether clinical supervision translates into meaningful impact on our client\u2019s well-being.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>At least that&#8217;s what we would hope for.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Edward Watkins Jr., a researcher from the University of North Texas, conducted a review of 18 empirical studies that examined the impact of supervision on client outcomes. Based on the big picture analysis, Watkins Jr said,<\/p>\n\n\n\n<div style=\"height:20px\" aria-hidden=\"true\" class=\"wp-block-spacer\"><\/div>\n\n\n\n<blockquote class=\"wp-block-quote is-layout-flow wp-block-quote-is-layout-flow\"><p><em>\u201c\u2026the collective data appears to shed little new light on the matter.

Explainoholic<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>I am an expert \u201c<a href=\"http:\/\/darylchow.com\/frontiers\/explainoholic\/\">explainoholic<\/a>.\u201d <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Given my experience at training other therapists and supervisors, I learned that there might be a need to create an \u201cexplainoholics anonymous\u201d meeting\u2014and I\u2019m in it too.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The clinical supervision encounter typically revolves around cases discussion, case formulation and theorising about the clinical pathology. This fits under the umbrella of clinical conceptual knowledge, and does not actually delve into moment-by-moment interactional patterns that unfold in a therapy hour. In other words, we often end up waxing lyrical on how a case may be conceptualised in a psychodynamic framework or emotion focused, or from a CBT perspective. We become quite good at developing the skill of a professional explainoholic.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Not only does this disembody the conversational nature of reality in therapy, but we also assume that the key is to obtain a thorough case formulation of the problem at hand. In 1939, a young psychologist aptly pointed out:<br><\/p>\n\n\n\n<blockquote class=\"wp-block-quote is-layout-flow wp-block-quote-is-layout-flow\"><p><em>\u201c\u2026A full knowledge of psychiatric and psychological information, with a brilliant intellect capable of applying this knowledge, is of itself no guarantee of therapeutic skill.\u201d<\/em><\/p><\/blockquote>\n\n\n\n<p><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>This was by none other than Carl Rogers.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>In other words, given that we are already two steps removed in supervision\u2014and lost in explainoholism, we end up being even more indirect in our attempts to improve client outcomes in our clinical discussions.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<div style=\"height:50px\" aria-hidden=\"true\" class=\"wp-block-spacer\"><\/div>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">2. Pat on the back<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>When a supervisee presents a stuck case, I bet you have heard this chant within the walls of supervision \u201c\u2026But your client still came back to see you, right?\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>In reality, a small percentage of clients (~10%) account for the largest percentage (~60-70%) of behavioral health care expenditures, showing a continued use of services without successful outcomes (Lambert, 2003). More specifically, the odds of someone improving in your care diminishes if the client hasn\u2019t experienced therapeutic gains early on (Erekson, Clayson, Park, &amp; Tass, 2018).<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>While it is vital to take care of the supervisee\u2019s sense of self, what feels good doesn\u2019t equate to what helps us grow. About a third of our clients continue therapy without experiencing reliable improvement in their well-being. If we continue to bolster their esteem with praise or consolation without helping them identify their growth edge and improve the outcomes of stuck cases, we are doing our therapists and clients a disservice.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>If a pat on the back doesn\u2019t soothe the angst of a therapist with a stuck case, we revert to being explainaholics.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<div style=\"height:50px\" aria-hidden=\"true\" class=\"wp-block-spacer\"><\/div>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">3. Lack of monitoring client progress<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>We therapists are an optimistic bunch. In the absence of real-time monitoring of outcomes and engagement session by session, we fail to detect deterioration and dropouts. A groundswell of studies now shows that the use of measures such as real-time feedback tools not only reduces deterioration in client well-being by a third, but cuts dropout by half, and as much as doubles the overall effectiveness of therapy (Schuckard, Miller &amp; Hubble, 2017).<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Even when we use routine outcome monitoring devices, like the Outcome Rating Scale (ORS) and Session Rating Scale (SRS), Outcome Questionnaire (OQ-45), or Clinical Outcome Routine Evaluation- Outcome Measure (CORE-OM), we fail to meaningfully integrate them into the supervisory process. We stick to using the measures as an assessment tool, and not as a conversational tool. We go through the motions of administering measures because we are required to, and it is good practice, but it doesn\u2019t feed into actual improvement in client outcomes or adjustment to our approach to suit client feedback.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<div style=\"height:50px\" aria-hidden=\"true\" class=\"wp-block-spacer\"><\/div>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">4. Lack of monitoring engagement level in supervision<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>Those of you who are already using routine outcome measures as a source of feedback know that it\u2019s hard for clients to give the therapist feedback. It\u2019s also hard \u2013 if not harder \u2013 for a supervisee to provide feedback about engagement levels in supervision, especially if the supervisor is a colleague.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The reality is that clinical supervisors have a tough enough job ensuring that their input has a ripple effect not only on the therapist, but also on their clients. Having some type of formal procedure to elicit what\u2019s been working for the learner can help focus. In addition, given that supervisors and supervisees may have overlapping roles or collegial bonds outside of supervision, having a formalised feedback procedure in supervision allows both parties to take a pit stop and address issues in real time\u2014not six months down the road when it\u2019s too late\u2014that might otherwise be brushed aside.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Also, your supervisor may not be familiar with the feedback informed treatment (FIT) approach. They may not have had any training in it or agree with it, and therefore not be helpful with that aspect of supervision.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<div style=\"height:50px\" aria-hidden=\"true\" class=\"wp-block-spacer\"><\/div>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">5. Not analysing the game<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>In any other domain, such as sport, music, acting or public speaking, if one were to seek a coach\u2019s help, it would be unheard of for the performer not to analyse their performance. Yet, in the field of psychotherapy, we do less examining of moment-by-moment dynamics in the therapy hour, and more theorising (see point #1). Most supervisors do not watch snippets or segments of the video recording highlighting specific areas that the therapist should work on. Many supervisors do not record and review their own work, let alone that of supervisees. It is only when they are required for a student or a registrar program that by the supervisor makes observations. Post-registration, these are often abandoned by both supervisees and supervisors.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>As in other professional fields, it\u2019s important to record sessions in order to receive specific feedback about the interaction and direction of therapy rather than feedback about a perceived or reported performance.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Feedback is useful when it\u2019s based on a well-defined objective, observables, or specifics.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<div style=\"height:50px\" aria-hidden=\"true\" class=\"wp-block-spacer\"><\/div>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">6. Overemphasis on self and neglecting the impact on the client<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>You may not agree, but there is an over-emphasis on the self of the therapist at the expense of impact on the client.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Too much supervisory time is spent on superfluous issues such patting the supervisee on the back (see # 2), and not enough on real-time progress monitoring to guide the conversation (see #3). In other words, at times supervision slips into personal therapy.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<div style=\"height:50px\" aria-hidden=\"true\" class=\"wp-block-spacer\"><\/div>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">7. Lack of focus on therapists\u2019 learning objectives<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>In my training as a psychotherapist, some guidance from clinical supervisors changed my life, and others I nearly got in trouble with, because of my dissatisfaction with a dogmatic focus on models and not actual translation into client outcomes. I\u2019ve been told before to pick another client to discuss who fitted in with a particular modality of therapy that my supervisor was trying to get me to learn.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Even good supervisors didn\u2019t always provide an individualised professional framework for my learning needs, although it was not their fault, as I didn\u2019t ask for such direction. I was left to figure it out on my own, and, most of the time, supervision was on a case-by-case discussion basis.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Meanwhile, our traditional teachings approach in post-graduate courses and national board-approved supervision programs <a href=\"http:\/\/darylchow.com\/frontiers\/ signs-that-therapists-are-barking-up-the-wrong-tree-in-our-professional- development\/\">bark up the wrong tree<\/a> (Chow, 2017) They are obsessed with standardisation\u2014the way Edward Thorndike took Frederick Taylor\u2019s idea of standardisation to improve productivity in manufacturing industries, which permeated into our factories and education system. The courses and programs push for adherence, competency, and treatment fidelity to specific treatment approaches, none of which improve client outcomes (Miller, Hubble, Chow, Seidal, 2013).<\/p>\n\n\n\n<div style=\"height:100px\" aria-hidden=\"true\" class=\"wp-block-spacer\"><\/div>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Flip the script in clinical supervision<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>Now that we have gone through the seven pitfalls in clinical supervision, let\u2019s quickly turn things around and find the antidotes.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h4 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Table 1.
