IDM Model of Supervision Flashcards
Purpose of IDM Model
provides a structure by which supervisors conceptualize supervisees’ levels and skills and proposed that supervisees progress through 3 developmental stages in 3 overriding structures: Self/other awareness, motivation and autonomy (Bellinger & Carone, 2021)
How does IDM model conceptualize supervisees?
Conceputalize supervisees based on level of development overall and in a number of counseling domains (Kozachuk & Conley, 2021)
Self/Other Awareness within IDM
defined as counselor’s level of self-preoccupation, awareness of the client’s world, and ability to understand content of the client’s thought process and changes in the client’s emotions (Kozachuk & Conley, 2021)
Motivation in IDM Model
understood in their level of interest in the client and investment or effort put forth in the counseling process (Kozachuk & Conley, 2021)
Autonomy in IDM Model
degree of independence of the supervisee apart from the supervisor and/or other authority figures around the supervisee (Kozachuk & Conley, 2021)
Level 1 Supervisees in IDM Model
entry-level clinicians and focus on skill development and anxiety reduction, are at early stages of being introduced to theories, assessment and diagnosis characterized by lack of training and experience as counselors upon entering supervision (Bellinger & Carone, 2021; Poncy, 2020; Shelton & Zazzarino, 2020)
Level 1 supervisees are typically trained in what?
use of basic counseling skills, such as use of reflections, clarification, probing and appropriate questioning (Bellinger & Carone, 2021)
Level 1 Supervisees are typically what?
highly anxious and dependent on the supervisor due to their feelings of anxiety and insecurity (Bellinger & Carone, 2021; Kozachuk & Conley, 2021)
Supervisors of Level 1 supervisees should do what?
should provide support, encouragement, suggestions for approaches, encourage the supervisee to take risks, and teach the supervisee counseling skills that help tie theory together (Bellinger & Carone, 2021; Kozachuk & Conley, 2021)
Level 2 Supervisees
experience dependency-autonomy conflict at this point in their development, marked by oscillation between feeling overly confident and overwhelmed and begin shifting focus from themselves to client experience, increasing ability to provide genuine and accurate empathy (Bellinger & Carone, 2021; Kozachuk & Conley, 2021)
Supervisee at Level 2 of IDM Model likely to experience what?
fluctuation in motivation, along with experimenting and disagreeing with the supervisor and needs to be given more freedom to make decisions in counseling sessions (Bellinger & Carone, 2021)
Level 3 Supervisees
more advanced, can identify dependency needs they have and are able to appropriate consulting with their supervisors by gaining a sense of autonomy in their work and increasing awareness of self/others (Bellinger & Carone, 2021; Poncy, 2020)
Level 3 Supervisors
focus more on therapeutic process and client engagement rather than insecurities and shortcoming, allowing for richer supervision experience (Shelton & Zazzarino, 2020)
Facilitative Interventions in IDM Model
Cathartic interventions needed that elicit emotion and validation; open ended questions facilitate client exploration; examples include active listening, praise, supervisor self-disclosure of own early counseling experiences (Bellinger & Carone, 2021; Shelton & Zazzarino, 2020)
Confrontive Interventions in IDM Model
any interventions that the supervisor uses to identify and highlight discrepancies between the supervisee’s feelings and attitudes, beliefs, and/or behaviors in which they may be engaging with the client that could be impairing therapeutic functioning (Bellinger & Carone, 2021)
Catalytic Interventions in IDM Model
helps expand awareness of supervisee’s clinical practice that may be out of present awareness, interventions could include probing, questioning and exploring with the supervisee (Bellinger & Carone, 2021)
Directive Interventions in IDM
prescribing advice and confronting supervisee if needed, teaching component also serves as an alternative (Shelton & Zazzarino, 2020)
Prescriptive Interventions in IDM Model
Prescriptive interventions: ways supervisor will give advice and make direct suggestions for the supervisee to engage in specific behaviors with clients (Bellinger & Carone, 2021)
Counseling Domains in IDM Model
(I can ask if candy is the top priority - Acronym)
competence in eight professional domains as evaluated by supervisor, specifically in:
Intervention Skills
Competence
Assessment Techniques
Interpersonal Assessments
Client Conceptualization
Individual Differences
Theoretical Orientation
Treatment Plans/Goals
Professional Ethics (Bellinger & Carone, 2021; Shelton & Zazzarino, 2020)
Formative Feedback in IDM Model
should be primary intervention strategy in supervision unless supervisee actions are negligent enough to warrant disciplinary actions (Shelton & Zazzarino, 2020)
Feedback in IDM Model
measures more definitive in expectations for supervisee behaviors, and there are inventories that are excellent resources to guide supervisors in summative feedback (Shelton & Zazzarino, 2020)
Supervisor Role in IDM Model
As supervisee becomes more stable, self-and-other aware, and independent, supervisor can utilize confrontive interventions to increase the supervisee’s awareness of how clients may be impacting them, however the supervisory relationship across all developmental levels should embody warmth, acceptance, understanding and trust (Bellinger & Carone, 2021; Poncy, 2020)
Level 3i Supervisees
Supervisees have reached level 3 across multiple domains and demonstrate high levels of awareness through developing personal counseling style (Salvador, 2016)
Limitations of IDM
major concern of IDM is solely benefitting the supervisee rather than the supervisor due to its diminutive application in the post-graduate supervision; inadequate methods and strategies that will pilot the supervisory processes (Salvador, 2016)
