Envision Counseling Presents:

Applied Clinical Supervision

One-day, 9-hour Applied Clinical Supervision Experience

October 24^th 8:00 AM-6:00 PM

9 NBCC Continuing Education Hours

Presenters:

Kim McBride, Ph.D., LMFT

Washington State Approved Clinical Supervisor

Colin C. Ward, Ph.D., LMHC

Washington State Approved Clinical Supervisor

 

Following completion of the 15-hour Becoming a Washington State Approved Clinical Supervisor training, supervisor candidates may continue their professional development through this intensive, one-day applied clinical supervision experience.

Under the mentoring supervision of Kim McBride, Ph.D., LMFT, and Colin C. Ward, Ph.D., LMHC, participants will have the opportunity to apply newly acquired supervisory knowledge and evidence-informed practices while working with supervisee associates who are completing Washington State-required postgraduate supervised clinical experience in preparation for independent practice.

Unlike the two-day supervisor knowledge training, this course is entirely experiential and includes no lecture component. Supervisor candidates will actively practice clinical supervision throughout the training day, receiving observation, feedback, consultation, and guidance from Drs. McBride and Ward.

Applied Supervision Experience

Working in dyads with other supervisor candidates, participants will practice how to:

• Establish effective supervisory relationships that foster supervisee growth, accountability, and professional identity.
• Present and implement Supervision Agreements that clearly define expectations, evaluation procedures, and supervisory responsibilities.
• Structure individual, triadic, and group supervision using evidence-informed supervisory practices.
• Utilize effective methods for observation, documentation, feedback, and evaluation of supervisee competence and professional development.
• Apply culturally responsive supervision practices that promote diversity, equity, inclusion, cultural humility, and health equity.
• Recognize and appropriately respond to supervisees' performance concerns, ethical issues, impairment, and gatekeeping considerations.
• Integrate best practices in documentation, recordkeeping, financial and practice management, continuity planning, and risk management consistent with Washington State supervisory requirements.

Washington State Applied Supervision Experience

This one-day training is designed to provide 9 hours of experience in supervision of clinical practice toward the experience requirement identified in WAC 246-809-334(4)(b) for Washington State Approved Clinical Supervisors.

Because these hours are earned through the practice of supervision, rather than classroom instruction, supervisor candidates must remain actively engaged in clinical supervision activities for the full nine instructional hours. This one-day applied training will be held from 8:00 AM to 6:00 PM and includes nine hours of active supervision practice, with a one-hour lunch break. Lunch is on your own, with several casual dining options conveniently located within approximately 0.3 miles of the training location.

Applied Course Requirements

To participate in the one-day Applied Clinical Supervision Training:

Prior supervisor education is required. At the time of registration, participants must provide documentation demonstrating completion of the required 15 hours of clinical supervision education.

Pre-training preparation is required. A training packet will be provided to participants approximately one week before the course. The packet includes readings and supporting materials related to the supervision competencies participants will practice during the applied training. Participants are expected to review these materials in advance so that the training day can remain fully focused on the active practice of clinical supervision.

Active participation is required. To qualify for all 9 hours of experience in supervision of clinical practice, supervisor candidates must actively participate in the practice of clinical supervision for the entire course, excluding the one-hour lunch period.

This is an applied training experience. There are no lecture components. Participants should arrive prepared to supervise, be supervised in their supervision, receive feedback, reflect on their supervisory practice, and apply that feedback throughout the training day.

This training is intended for Washington State licensed mental health professionals who:

• Have held an unrestricted Washington State license in good standing for at least two years.
• Intend to become Washington State Approved Clinical Supervisors.
• Have completed the required 15 hours of clinical supervision education.

About the Presenters

Dr. Kim McBride and Dr. Colin C. Ward have collaborated in counselor education, clinical supervision, and professional training for more than 15 years. They first met while serving as counselor educators at Antioch University Seattle and later partnered at Envision Counseling, where they discovered a shared passion for preparing the next generation of clinical  professionals. Since 2012, they have co-developed and presented Washington State Approved Clinical Supervisor trainings for licensed clinicians throughout Washington while also providing group supervision for post-graduate associates pursuing licensure. Together, they bring more than 60 years of combined experience as counselor educators, clinical supervisors, private practitioners, authors, and national and international presenters.

Known for their engaging, high-energy teaching style, Drs. McBride and Ward integrate academic scholarship with decades of experience in clinical practice, clinical supervision, and counselor and marriage and family therapy education to create an interactive learning environment that is professional, approachable, and intellectually stimulating. Their teaching emphasizes transparency, authenticity, thoughtful discussion, and practical application while fostering a collaborative and reflective learning experience. The training equips supervisors with the knowledge and skills to strengthen supervisees' clinical judgment while enhancing their multicultural competence, ethical decision-making, and professional identity.

Kim McBride, Ph.D., LMFT, is the founder and Clinical Director of Envision Counseling and an AAMFT Approved Supervisor and Washington State Approved Clinical Supervisor. She earned her master’s degree in psychology, with an emphasis in Child, Couple, and Family Therapy, from Antioch University Seattle, and her Ph.D. in Marriage and Family Therapy, specializing in Couple Therapy, from Northcentral University. Dr. McBride is also a counselor educator whose supervision philosophy is supervisee-centered, systemic, and outcomes-focused. She integrates Developmental and Bowen Family Systems Theory to cultivate ethical decision-making, clinical competence, professional identity, and the self-awareness necessary for independent practice.

Colin C. Ward, Ph.D., LMHC, has more than 30 years of experience as a counselor educator, clinician, clinical supervisor, mentor, author, and national and international presenter. He earned his M.S. in Counseling from Winona State University and his Ph.D. in Counseling from Oregon State University. He is emeritus faculty at Antioch University Seattle, having served in a variety of leadership positions within the university and professional community.

Dr. Ward was trained in the traditions of Brief Therapy, grounded in the humanistic ideals of respect, responsibility, openness, and humility. He has co-authored books for both clinicians (Resilient Centered Counseling, 2023) and supervisors (Supervision at the Crossroad, 2026), reflecting an unequivocal belief in the self-healing nature of others while emphasizing a developmental, resilience-centered, reflective, and collaborative partnership with clients, supervisees, and colleagues.

He has noted, “To courageously listen, to hear strength in stories of despair, to appreciate the unfolding nature in us all, and to believe in the human spirit in such a way that change is not only possible, but inevitable—to listen in this way is far more than accessing a shelf of techniques; it is a way of being with others that is often neglected in counselor training.

Envision Counseling Presents: 

Becoming a Washington State Approved Clinical Supervisor

2-day Clinical Supervisor Training

Fri & Sat, October 16-17, 2024, 8 AM-5 PM

Registration: $369 (covers both days of training)

Description

Clinical supervision is one of the profession's greatest responsibilities. Effective supervisors do more than oversee clinical work—they cultivate ethical decision-making, clinical competence, professional identity, and sound clinical judgment in the next generation of behavioral health professionals. Effective supervision requires supervisors to be reflective, collaborative, and courageous enough to consider the becoming of a counselor as important as the act of counseling.

Recognizing supervision as an inherently multicultural process, grounded in collaboration, solidarity, and a shared commitment to client well-being, this training provides an experiential learning environment in which supervisors learn to listen alongside their supervisees to the lived experiences of others. In doing so, and with the support of colleagues and community, supervisors can become not only better listeners and clinicians, but also more thoughtful and responsive people.

This two-day Clinical Supervision Training is designed for Washington State licensed mental health professionals seeking to become Washington State Approved Clinical Supervisors. Participants will complete the required 15 hours of supervision education while developing the knowledge, skills, and practical framework necessary to provide ethical, competent, and effective clinical supervision. The training satisfies the supervision education requirements outlined in Washington Administrative Code (WAC) 246-809-334.

Through engaging lectures, guided discussion, and practical clinical examples, participants will examine the legal, ethical, and professional responsibilities of the supervisor; models and methods of clinical supervision; developmental approaches to supervision; evaluation and feedback strategies; gatekeeping; culturally responsive supervision; documentation; and risk management. Participants will also receive practical supervisory resources and templates that can be immediately incorporated into their supervision practice.

Learning Objectives

Upon completion of this training, participants will be able to:

1. Describe the legal, ethical, and professional responsibilities of a Washington State Approved Clinical Supervisor.
2. Apply Washington State laws, regulations, and ethical standards to the practice of clinical supervision.
3. Explain major models, methods, and developmental approaches to clinical supervision.
4. Establish effective supervisory relationships that foster supervisee growth, accountability, and professional identity.
5. Develop comprehensive Supervision Agreements that clearly define expectations, evaluation procedures, and supervisory responsibilities.
6. Structure individual, triadic, and group supervision using evidence-informed supervisory practices.
7. Utilize effective methods for observation, documentation, feedback, and evaluation of supervisee competence and professional development.
8. Apply culturally-responsive supervision practices that promote diversity, equity, inclusion, cultural humility, and health equity.
9. Recognize and appropriately respond to supervisees’ performance concerns, ethical issues, impairment, and gatekeeping responsibilities.
10. Integrate best practices in documentation, recordkeeping, financial management, practice management, continuity planning, and risk management consistent with Washington State supervisory requirements.

Hi everyone!

Seats are still available for affordable NCE/CPCE/CECE test prep in September 2026. The rate is $199 for practitioners and $149 for grad students, for 6 hours of tutoring plus materials (4x 1.5 hour weekly meetings). Grad students use the discount code GRAD26 at checkout. Test prep is offered on Friday and Saturday afternoons. Classes start Sept 11 and 12. An NCMHCE asynchronous course is available; I will offer my next live course for NCMHCE in March 2026. I use the Zoom online platform, so people can participate from across the country. As a counselor educator and practitioner who has taken and passed both the NCE, NCMHCE, and CPCE, I understand how graduate study and clinical experience are not necessarily sufficient for passing these exams. For the past eight years, my tutoring approach for the NCE/CPCE has over a 90% pass rate.

Date and Time

I am providing the following group tutoring courses during fall 2026. Each class is capped at 100 participants. Click on the links below to register.

A two-day, in-person intensive for licensed clinicians who want to supervise associates in Washington. It provides the 15 clock hours of clinical supervision training the state requires under chapter 246-809 WAC. Washington also asks for 25 hours of experience in supervision of clinical practice, which you complete on the job, and an unrestricted license in good standing for the previous two years.

The two days carry 15 NBCC hours: 6 hours of professional ethics and law, 2 hours of professional roles and boundaries in its own block, and 2 hours of health equity meeting the implicit bias standard. The remaining hours count as general continuing education.

Supervision is a relationship before it is a compliance activity, and this training is built that way. You will map the supervisory systems you sit inside and locate yourself in them, apply the Person-of-Supervisor framework through differentiation of self, attachment, and self-regulation, write supervisory contracts that hold, track the patterns that move between the therapy room and the supervision room, carry the legal and ethical duties chapter 246-809 WAC places on you, evaluate fairly and handle gatekeeping with care, and name and interrupt implicit bias, power, and social location without shame. No family systems background needed.

FACILITATORS
Dr. Jennifer Sampson, PhD, LMFT, AAMFT Approved Supervisor and Washington State approved supervisor.
Margaret MacLeod, MS, LMFT, AAMFT Approved Supervisor and Washington State approved supervisor.

OPEN TO
Licensed mental health counselors, licensed clinical and advanced social workers, and licensed marriage and family therapists. Associates and students are welcome to attend and learn, though the approved supervisor designation itself requires full licensure. This training provides the state's 15-hour training requirement. It does not meet the standards for the AAMFT Approved Supervisor designation, which runs through AAMFT's own pathway.

WHEN AND WHERE
Friday and Saturday, September 11 and 12, 2026, 8:30 AM to 5:30 PM Pacific each day. Ebony & Ivory Coffee Co., 33930 Weyerhaeuser Way S, Suite 100, Federal Way, WA 98001. Lunch provided both days. Participants must attend both full days to receive CE credit. Partial credit is not available.

COST
$425 through August 14, then $495. Practices registering four or more pay $425 per person. A reduced equity rate is available and no documentation is required. Registration closes September 9. The venue is wheelchair accessible and reasonable accommodations are available on request with at least 10 days notice.
