Postdoctoral Fellowship

Supervision and Evaluation

Postgraduate fellows receive 3+ hours of formal supervision weekly throughout the fellowship year. Each postgraduate fellow receives a minimum of two hours of individual supervision weekly provided by a primary supervisor.

  • For postdoctoral fellows in psychology, the primary supervisor is a psychologist who is licensed in Florida.
  • For postgraduate fellows in social work or counseling, the primary supervisor is a Florida licensed mental health professional who also has the Qualified Supervisor (Social Work or Counseling) designation in the State of Florida.

All fellows will meet with either the Associate and/or Assistant Director of Training for Postgraduate Group Supervision for one hour weekly to identify needs, concerns, or for support related to clinical and professional development issues (e.g., job search, licensure, etc.) that arise in the course of the training year.

Fellows may receive additional supervision, based on interest or need. Examples may include supervision for group therapy, provision of supervision to a graduate student clinician, or supervision for outreach/prevention programming. 

Throughout the training year fellows will be regularly evaluated through formal and informal means, including: discipline-specific competency evaluation rating forms, client/patient outcome data, record review, self-assessments and training committee updates. Fellows will also have informal and formal opportunities to provide evaluations of the program, various training experiences, and their supervision experiences.
