Fellows receive a minimum of 1 hour of scheduled individual psychotherapy supervision weekly. An additional hour of weekly individual supervision is divided across the many other activities and services.
Each core rotation provides rotation-specific supervision by medical school faculty. While at non-Dartmouth Health sites, fellows have at least 1 hour of clinical supervision per week provided by the site-specific faculty physician. Family and group co-therapists provide family and group supervision. Specific psychotherapeutic supervision is arranged on a case by case basis, such as for trauma-focused cognitive behavioral therapy (CBT), time-limited dynamic therapy and dialectical behavior therapy.
Monthly group supervision provides the opportunity for peer-to-peer learning and is supervised by a Child and Adolescent Psychiatry faculty. The training program strongly encourages fellows to seek ad hoc supervision from other Child and Adolescent Fellowship training program faculty based on their specific needs and interests. During both training years, fellows receive administrative supervision from the program director.
