Additional comments: Counselor A has recently begun facilitating family/significant others therapy groups in our agency. She has expressed some

concerns on the transition, notably a focus that extends beyond the individual and the implications for treatment planning and treatment. Counselor A

came to the supervisor to request this opportunity as Counselor A is a student of systems theory and recognize families for the systems they are. She

recognizes that she does not have a full appreciation of the differences toward progress in a group setting and states that it may be due, in part, to her

lack of understanding of dynamics in a group setting in therapy. She is willing to learn and open to feedback when needed.

Date for "re-observation" to assess performance: 04/15/21

Results:

Counselors continuing clinical assessments and tx plans show a marked improvement when documenting the need for individual treatment plans

rather than a plan that addresses the “group” as the only client in the room. Her notes document when the “assigned” roles, and “rules” of the group

present themselves during the session, the impact they have on the session, and how she responds to them or uses them as an intervention or

“teachable moment. She admits to still “falling prey” to some of her negative beliefs as to why some family members do not do as well as others. She

utilizes individual supervision to address her concerns and reports that she finds group supervision helpful as; it offers her the opportunity to learn

from others who also run family/significant other/ group therapy sessions.
