This groundbreaking work, now available in paperback, is the standard text for the training and education of supervisors in substance abuse counseling. The blended model of treatment presented here is a synthesis of several established schools of therapy, and utilizes developmental, psychodynamic skills, and family therapy perspectives. Firmly grounded in both theory and practice, this book offers methods of supervisory contracting, observation, case presentation, modeling, intervention, and evaluation. Ethical and legal concerns are also addressed. Clinical Supervision provides the knowledge base that substance abuse supervisors will need in the coming years.
If you are studying for the Certification Test for Clinical Supervision this book is a must. The theories section is clear and gives all the information you will need to do well on that section of the test.

I found this book to be very helpful. It is clear and has a useful framework for conceptualizing supervision.
Essential handbook from the master of supervision

The only thing better than having this book is having the opportunity to hear David Powell speak in person. I had the privilege of attending a two day seminar on supervision by Dr. Powell, and his wisdom and inspiration for the field of counseling is truly amazing. This book is well thought out and practical, very helpful in guiding one through basic as well as more complex issues of supervision. Most credentialing bodies utilize his book for continuing education, and for good reason. Cannot say enough about Dr. Powell and this book.
