Supervision and Training

Challenging methods of training, consultation, and supervision--predicated on different ideas about how people learn most effectively--are highlighted in this exceptional volume. Distinguished educator Florence W. Kaslow has compiled new concepts and state-of-the-art approaches that greatly enhance our understanding of the process whereby good professionals become better professionals. Both direct and indirect training methodologies are discussed, and a variety of dynamic, behavioral, and eclectic approaches to the supervision of individual, group, and family therapies are described.
