Reflective Supervision/Consultation Requirements

Reflective Supervision/Consultation is a cornerstone when working with infants, toddlers and their families.  Reflective Supervision is a requirement for the following categories of Endorsement and will be a part of your application/portfolio:
  •  Infant Family Specialist, Infant Mental Health Specialist, and Infant Mental Health Mentor-Clinical Endorsement
  • Early Childhood Family Specialist, Early Childhood Mental Health Specialist, and Early Childhood Mental Health Mentor – Clinical  Endorsement 

While not a requirement for the following categories of Endorsement, it is in the best interest of all practitioners who promote I/ECMH, as well as the children and families who will benefit from their services, to engage in reflective practices and reflective supervision/consultation:
  • Infant Family Associate, Infant Mental Health Mentor-Policy, or Infant Mental Health Mentor-Research/Faculty
  • Early Childhood Family Associate, Early Childhood Mental Health Mentor-Policy, or Early Childhood Mental Health Mentor-Research/Faculty

Reflective Supervision/Consultation Resources

Are you ready to Request References for your Endorsement Application?

Please see the resources below regarding Reflective Supervision/Consultation.  PA-AIMH is currently in a capacity building phase with regard to Reflective Supervision/Consultation.  Please contact us for more information or with questions related to the type of supervision you may be receiving and how to determine if those hours can be captured as part of your future application for Endorsement.

It is very important to make sure that you are asking for Reference Ratings from individuals that are familiar with your work, knowledge and skills in your work with infants, young children and their families.    Your first step is to review a hard copy of the reference rating form before asking Reference Raters to complete these forms on your behalf.

It is very important to talk to your potential Reference Raters BEFORE entering their information into EASy.  Share the hard cop of the reference rating form and IECMH Competency Guidelines with them too.

A total of three professional reference ratings are required.  There should be a reference rating form from:
  • Provider of RS/C (applicable for IFS/ECFS, IMHS/ECMHS, and IMHM/ECMHM Clinical)
  • A program supervisors (person to whom Applicant currently reports)
  • A supervisee/consultee (if the applicant provides RS/C to others), and/or
  • A colleague, teacher, trainer, or other who is familiar with the Applicant's work as it relates to the competencies

*Please contact the Endorsement Coordinator if you are in need of a Vetting Interview for a Reference Rater who may not be an Endorsed Professional or Vetted Reflective Supervisor.
