Social Work Supervision in Substance Use Disorder & Addiction Treatment: Use of Language, Knowledge, and Self.
Author:
C. Baxter Chandler, LICSW, MA-PGS
Social work practice with people dealing with substance use disorders (SUD) and addictions is both challenging and rewarding. Supporting social work students in practicum with this population is essential for training the next generation of social workers in meeting the need for high quality service and care. This presentation is designed for supervisors of social work students, to help interns build confidence and skills with SUD/addiction clients. The importance of addressing supervision issues with this specific population will be outlined. Then we will explore how to encourage the use of non-judgmental and non-stigmatizing language in working with SUD/addiction populations. Supervisors will be shown how to access and utilize current information on SUD/addictions. Finally, we will look at how to help students be more aware of issues related to boundaries and countertransference, including the use of mindfulness.
