Name
Interprofessional Clinical Supervision: Training the Integrated Care Workforce Across Practicum, Internship, Postdoctoral, and Medical Residency Programs
Description

As integrated behavioral health expands into primary care, training models must prepare clinicians for collaborative, culturally responsive practice within complex medical systems—yet clinical supervision training in psychology is often treated as an afterthought. This session presents an interprofessional supervision framework developed in integrated clinics where psychology trainees and medical residents work side by side while training within distinct professional pathways. Panelists will discuss strategies for supporting learner development across practicum, internship, postdoctoral, and residency training, with particular attention to sustaining psychological safety within steep professional hierarchies. Participants will leave with practical frameworks and supervision tools to strengthen interdisciplinary training and build the integrated care workforce.
