Adopting a Trauma-Informed Lens in Supervision
The Department of Counseling and Educational Development at UNC Greensboro has developed a series of continuing education courses for clinical supervisors and other helping professionals to meet continuing education requirements set forth by the Center for Credentialing and Education (CCE) (a corporate affiliate of the National Board for Certified Counselors) and state licensure boards.
This 2-part module provides a comprehensive overview of trauma-informed care and trauma-informed clinical supervision, including definitions and principles of practice as well as application via case examples. Dr. Carolyn Knight, LMSW, PhD, Emeritus Professor, School of Social Work, University of Maryland, Baltimore, draws on her extensive background with trauma survivors as a clinician, supervisor, and educator. In a series of videos, Dr. Knight uses an engaging, conversational approach to share information and insights, discuss case vignette examples, and review reflective exercises. Required readings are included. Participants complete a quiz at the end of each module section. Upon successful completion of the course (both modules), participants will receive 15 contact hours of continuing education credit.
UNC Greensboro – Department of Counseling and Educational Development has been approved by NBCC as an Approved Continuing Education Provider, ACEP No. 3014. Programs that do not qualify for NBCC credit are clearly identified. UNC Greensboro – Department of Counseling and Educational Development is solely responsible for all aspects of the programs.
