This course meets ASHA's Supervision PD requirement.
In this episode of First Bite, Michelle Dawson, MS, CCC-SLP, CLC, BCS-S, FNAP, welcomes Alice L. Williams, BA, SLPA, creator of The SLPA Network, for a timely conversation on supervision in speech-language pathology.
Supervision is often treated as a compliance requirement, but it can be so much more. Michelle and Alice explore the real challenges SLPs face when stepping into supervisory roles, including limited training and the constant pull between clinical responsibilities and mentorship.
Alice breaks down how supervision requirements vary widely across states and settings, while highlighting the core principles that make supervision effective no matter where you practice. The discussion centers on "empowered supervision" as a way to build clinician confidence, strengthen professional identity, and support better outcomes for those we serve.
Whether you work in early intervention, medical, or school-based settings, this episode offers practical shifts in mindset to help you approach supervision with more clarity, intention, and sustainability.
