Integrated Supervision Framework: A Multicultural, Social Justice, and Ecological Approach

The authors propose the integrated supervision framework (ISF) as a second-generation supervision model which synthesizes the discrimination model and ecological theory as an integrative, ecological, culturally responsive, and concordant framework for clinical supervision. The ISF was developed to intentionally fill identified gaps in the practice and process of multicultural, social justice, and ecological supervision and to provide a framework to expand the current practice of clinical supervision based on the existing body of literature. In doing so, this article provides an overview of the multicultural, social justice, ecological, and intersectionality supervision literature and theoretical foundations, as well as an application and discussion of the ISF to underscore its enactment and future directions.
