Abstract

ABSTRACT: A theoretically grounded, evidence-informed, integrated model of clinical supervision for staff in agency settings is presented for a Canadian evidence-based program for children with severe disruptive behavioral difficulties. The aim is to provide the best service for clients through enhancing and supporting implementation, while meeting the educational and emotional needs of staff. Explanatory and guiding theories are presented, with best practices highlighted as influencing the dimensions of structure, expertise, and process of the model. Next steps are articulated to create the necessary foundation for enhancing supervision across affiliate sites, which will be evaluated and contribute to the evidence base of supervision.
