Session 3 with Dr. Roger Harrison (1CE) 

This session explores the foundational concepts and practical applications of culturally humble supervision in psychology. Through a combination of didactic instruction, reflective exercises, and skills-based practice, participants examine how cultural identity — both their own and that of their supervisees — shapes the supervisory relationship. The session emphasizes that effective supervision requires more than technical expertise; it demands ongoing self-reflection, humility, and a willingness to engage authentically across difference.
