Clinical Supervision Unpacked with Dr. Lockhart

The Clinical Supervisor's Seat: Power, Ethics, and Burnout in Modern Therapy

What makes a clinical supervisor effective and what happens when the relationship fails to support growth? In this episode of Highly Therapized, host Jenny Petersen is joined by Dr. Ezra Lockhart, a seasoned supervisor, educator, and therapist, to unpack the ethical, personal, and systemic complexities of supervision in modern therapy spaces.

Together, they explore:

• What ethical and legal responsibilities supervisors hold
• The impact of personal challenges on clinical work
• Burnout, moral injury, and the realities of corporate therapy settings
• Supervision in the digital age (e.g., social media and TikTok dilemmas)
• How Haley’s Strategic Model and legal literacy enhance supervision

Whether you're a clinical trainee or associate therapist, a licensed supervisor, or someone navigating therapy work in today's changing landscape, this episode offers invaluable insight.
