CECE UWA Clinical Mental Health Counseling (CMHC) Practice Test

The Discrimination Model focuses on how a supervisor intervenes to support the supervisee in clinical work. It guides the supervisor in tailoring their input to three areas that influence a trainee’s competence: working on the client’s problems and the therapy process, addressing the supervisee’s own developing skills and self-awareness, and shaping the supervisory relationship so learning and reflection occur. This makes it a framework specifically for clinical supervision, helping the supervisee grow in applying therapy effectively with clients. It isn’t primarily about administrative duties, ethical decision making, or peer supervision structures, which is why it points to guiding clinical supervision.
