Ongoing training on how to do CBT after a live or on-demand training is crucial to transferring a clinician’s new knowledge to their clinical work with clients. Beck Institute’s Individual Supervision program is designed to help you develop further competence in CBT with one-on-one guidance from our expert faculty.

Prerequisites for Individual Supervision

• Completion of a live Beck Institute core workshop or on-demand course, completion of a core Beck Institute training through your employer, or the equivalent
• Proof that you are licensed to practice psychotherapy in your locale (if required by your country)
• Access to 2-3 consenting clients; Beck Institute is unable to provide clients
• The ability to submit one audio recording of a therapy session electronically once per week
• Supervisees should submit session recordings with clients who have been seen for at least three sessions

How It Works

Each week for 10 weeks, you will submit a session recording to your supervisor for review. Your supervisor will then provide individualized feedback during a 45-minute phone or virtual video conferencing session and a score based on the Cognitive Therapy Rating Scale — Revised (CTRS-R©). You will also have the option to add on additional half-terms of 5 weekly sessions as needed.

The cost per 10-week term is $3,000, and trainees earn 7.5 CE credits per term.

Passing Individual Supervision
