Taking Back Supervision
April D. Fernando, PhD • Chapin Hall at the University of ChicagoErin Rosenblatt, PsyD • WestCoast Children’s Clinic
TCOM, Treatment Planning and Clinical Supervision
Transformational. Our work is focused on the the personal change that is the reason for intervention.
Collaborative. A shared vision approach is used — not one person’s perspective.
Outcomes. The measures are relevant to the decisions about the approach or purpose of the interventions.
Management. The information is used is used in all aspects of managing the system from individual/ family planning to clinical supervision to program and system operations.

+Shifting the Practice Model
A responsive organizational culture is a prerequisite to embedding sustainable initiatives.
A collective orientation towards learning is necessary for cultural change.
Developing a learning organization involves changes in attitudes, practices, and structures. Risk-taking behavior is essential in the context of any change, providing lessons are learnt from the successes and failures of these behaviors and incorporated into future structures.
Leaders of change have to be an integral part of the clinical team and be adequately supported with basic resources, such as personnel, time, and other facilitative mechanisms.
+Shifting the Practice Model
Supervisors have a critical leadership role in operationalizing and supporting cultural change.
For the TCOM: Supervisors are key in determining whether the CANS/ANSA remains a tool that is given, or is a strategy that helps clients, families and providers collaborate and communicate, and supports tracking personal change and transformation.
Need to reclaim the supervision hour as one for consultation, support and training.

+Attending to the Context
Clients and Families often have experiences with multiple systems that have been built with the stated goal of helping families and communities. Many times, however, contact with people in these systems has not helped the family, client or the community.
For change to occur, clients and families must actively participate in every step of the treatment process. Their engagement in the goals and tasks of treatment is related to better outcomes/change.
Goal: Collaboration, Communication, Transparency and Shared Vision
+Barriers to Engagement:Negative Interactions
Coming in to an interaction with assumptions about the family, caregiver or client.
Failing to explain the reason for the various aspects of treatment (e.g., assessment, setting goals, participation, etc.).
Not being engaged and attentive.
Not sharing with the individual or family what is written about them.
Using information in a way that ‘blindsides’ the client or family.
Approaching interactions as doing things to or for the client/family rather than supporting the client/family doing things for themselves.
+Engagement: What Can Help?
Teach a Strengths Approach:
Models respect and kindness towards individuals and families. Builds Trust.
Conveys the belief in them to continue healthy development and change when needed. Empowering.
Conveys high expectations of the individual and family even while addressing areas of challenge. Hopeful.

+The Assessment: Overview
Assist with planning and structuring a comprehensive assessment. TCOM requires a lot of front-end work.
Some tips from clients and families: Reassure us that we’ve done the right thing by coming in
(lead us where we can get what we need) Tell us a little bit about who you are (No robots) ..and your work with families like mine (No freaking out,
thinking I am/my child is the worst one) Be clear about the supports you can offer Tell us who will see the assessment

+The Assessment: CANS/ANSA
Spend time practicing how each domain will be introduced; go over potentially challenging items.
Help clinician identify a process to resolve disagreements in rating items, and how to handle situations when a consensus regarding a rating is not possible.
Help clinician in writing the assessment in client/family friendly language and being transparent.
+The Assessment: CANS/ANSA
Prior to presenting the assessment and CANS/ANSA to the client and/or family, review ratings and practice how to discuss the assessment.
When reviewing strengths, begin to operationalize each strength for the individual/family: how does the strength serve the individual?
In discussing needs, begin to prioritize needs and identify patterns: do any underlying needs emerge?
+Assessment: Questions to Consider for SupervisionClinicians: Were there any items on the CANS/ANSA the clinician struggled to score for
this client/family? Did the client have any elevated scores in the trauma domains? Did s/he have elevated scores in other domains that you believe are
somehow related to his/her history of trauma exposure? Have the CANS scores been shared with the client and/or caregiver? Why not
or how did this go?
Caseworkers: Is the Caseworker bringing the CANS/ANSA to supervision? Does the casework supervisor agree with the caseworkers scoring of the
CANS/ANSA? Given the verbal description of cases in supervision are the scores valid: too high or too low?
Is all pertinent information discussed in supervision reflected in the CANS? How does the caseworker completed CANS compare to other completed
CANS (e.g. the therapist CANS or the Initial Assessment screener?)Adapted from Using the CANS in Working with Complexly Traumatized Children and Adolescents: Creative Applications for Different Professional Roles

+Treatment Planning: Collaborative Case Conceptualization Connecting the dots. Helping clients/families understand their lives
from past to the present, outlining how a particular difficulty has developed, persisted and the various cognitive, emotional, behavior effects and interpersonal difficulties generated as a consequence.
Critical aspect of treatment. Sharing the case conceptualization has the potential to facilitate the individual’s therapeutic experience, insight and understanding; can facilitate client’s/family’s experience of feeling understood.
Collaborative and co-created is key. To be effective, case formulation must be a collaborative endeavor, comprise the client and family’s views and beliefs, and not imposed (covertly or otherwise).
Facilitates transparency in the treatment.

• The client/individual’s case conceptualization should integrate information from the CANS/ANSA.
+Treatment Planning
Goal ObjectiveIntervention/
Strategy Timeframe
What personal change will happen ?
What CANS life functioning area will improve?
What steps must be taken to accomplish the personal change?
What CANS needs or strengths must improve?
What specific interventions or strategies have been identified to address the goals and objectives?
What is the estimated length of time to achieve personal change?
Some Tips:• Minimum standard: What would be enough change to keep the client functioning
in that environment?
• Make sure that everyone has the same idea about each goal.
• Be clear about timelines for goals• How long does it usually take to see some relief?• Will it get worse before it gets better?• What do I do when it feels like what you’ve told me isn’t working?• How long is too long?
+Treatment Planning: Hot Spots to Supervise
What if family members disagree about whether an item requires intervention? Practice reframing issues and focus on
functioning.
What items do I present to families? Practice linking the CANS/ANSA items to the
client/family case conceptualization, and then to the objective and goals. It will help identify which items to prioritize and address.
+Treatment Planning: Hot Spots to Supervise
How do we create specific goals that address underlying needs and utilize strengths? Practice identifying underlying needs and developing
strategies and interventions to address them. This should be done with the family.
What if we’re not making progress? Develop process of having CANS/ANSA data
integrated into supervision and sessions with clients/families.
Practice discussing CANS/ANSA data as outcome metrics: does the plan need to be changed in light of the data?
+Treatment Planning: Questions to Consider for SupervisionClinicians: Did your CANS scores drive your treatment plan? How or why not? What have you done/do you plan to do to address safety and self-regulation in therapy
with this child (two very common needs for clients with complex trauma)? Are there other key people in this client’s life that can assist in addressing any of the
client’s needs or building his/her strengths (community/natural supports, other professionals)?
Have you done any psychoeducation with the client’s caregivers, parents, school, or other involved providers to assist them in understanding (and managing) the client’s behavior?
When applicable, have you focused on the caregiver section of the CANS/ANSA to identify the areas for building family resilience?
Caseworkers: Has the caseworker identified all actionable items and usable strengths and
incorporated these into service plan outcome/goal statements? Before signing off on any significant decisions, has the casework supervisor reviewed
the CANS to determine if CANS scores support placement or other decisions (e.g. return home, residential placement, etc.)?

+Attending to Progress
Identify patterns of success to understand and emulate, and identify areas to act on and improve
When successes occur, find a way to celebrate them with clients/families; let them own their successes
Find a way to build services based on both clinical experience and clinical science

+Attending to Progress: Questions to Consider for SupervisionClinician How often/when is the CANS administered during treatment? What is the plan for sharing feedback about client change
overtime as a method of discussing both areas of growth and continued need?
Caseworker Is the caseworker identifying changes in CANS item scores
over time (up or down) by comparing sequential CANS and discussing the utility of the services provided in relation to specific CANS scores (i.e. no change in school achievement over 12 months—is tutoring effective)?
