Supervision & Mentoring

Supporting thoughtful, reflective and developmentally informed clinical practice.

Several psychologists at Melbourne Children’s Psychology Clinic (MCPC) are AHPRA Board-Approved Supervisors with endorsement in Clinical Psychology and/or Educational & Developmental Psychology.

We provide supervision to:

  • Psychologists in AHPRA training pathways
  • Psychologists completing endorsement (Registrar) programs
  • Higher Degree trainees & placement students
  • Fully registered psychologists seeking ongoing supervision or reflective practice
  • Clinicians working in CAMHS, paediatrics, schools, community settings or private practice

Our supervision approach is collaborative, reflective and supportive. We focus on curiosity, clinical thinking, self-awareness and sustainable practice — not performance or correction.

Supervision Pathways We Support

We are approved to provide supervision for:

  • 5+1 Internship Program (Principal and Secondary Supervisor roles)
  • Higher Degree Pathways (for general registration and endorsement)
  • Registrar Programs (Clinical Psychology; Educational & Developmental Psychology)
  • Ongoing supervision for fully registered psychologists across settings

Areas of Clinical Focus

Supervision commonly includes:

  • Case formulation and clinical decision-making
  • Working with children, adolescents, young adults and families
  • Relational and attachment-based approaches
  • Neuroaffirming and developmentally informed practice
  • Working with complexity, trauma, systems and interagency coordination
  • Supporting practice sustainability, boundaries and wellbeing
  • Reflective practice and professional identity development

Our supervision is grounded in care, respect and shared thinking — not hierarchy.

Who We Support

We provide supervision for psychologists working in:

  • Private practice (established or new to private work)
  • Public child & adolescent mental health (CAMHS)
  • Paediatric and allied health teams
  • School counselling/wellbeing roles
  • Early intervention, NDIS and community services
  • Family services, out-of-home care & multidisciplinary settings

Whether you are in early training, growing into your role, or refining long-term clinical identity, supervision can offer steadiness and support.

How We Work

Our supervision style is:

  • Collaborative — thinking together, not directing
  • Reflective — making space for meaning, emotion and professional self
  • Developmentally responsive — tailored to stage, skill and context
  • Respectful of your clinical style — not forcing a single model
  • Grounded — steady, calm, and realistic in pace and expectations

We aim to support supervision that feels safe, thoughtful and sustaining.
