Abstract:
Mental health professionals working in the juvenile justice system work with clients who have complex mental health needs putting them at increased risk of burnout and vicarious trauma. Clinical supervision can help beginning counselors provide competent services and, at the same time, protect them from burnout. This article shows how supervisors can use an Adlerian-informed supervision method that integrates the Respectfully Curious Inquiry/Therapeutic Encouragement (RCI/TE) framework with the discrimination model of supervision to increase the supervisee's experience of the Crucial Cs. Supervisors can protect supervisees from burnout and vicarious trauma by increasing feelings of connection, significance, competence, and courage.
