ABSTRACT
Previous literature has focused on either individual models of supervision, developing trainees' interprofessional competencies, or on developing and maintaining interprofessional relationships outside of training. For psychologists in medical settings, these concepts are inextricably linked, and supervision must combine these professional practices to successfully meet the needs of psychology trainees, patients, and interprofessional colleagues, in an increasingly integrated healthcare landscape. This paper presents a model for advancing interprofessional collaborative practice competencies in supervision as health psychology trainees progress through the developmental stages of clinical competency, while supervising psychologists also maintain interprofessional relationships. The Interprofessional Collaboration Supervision Model (IPCSM)for Psychology describes trainee, patient, and interprofessional team factors for supervising psychologists to consider in supervision, as well as various interventions to deploy when these interrelated dynamics impact training. Case examples are provided along with discussion on how to implement this model in supervision.
