Interactive #15: Do we matter? Experiences of Asian International & Asian American Supervisors

Session Information

There is growing research on the supervision dyad of supervisors of color with white supervisees and supervisees of color (Branco & Jones, 2021; Levitt et al., 2022; McKinley, 2019; Rats et al., 2016; Wong et al., 2013). However, a specific focus on Asian international (AI) and Asian American (AA) supervisors is nearly invisible in research. In this interactive panel, a group of AI and AA psychologists will discuss experiences of marginalization within the supervisory relationship, serving as a call to action for clinicians and researchers. Detailed topics: Stereotypes of AI and AA: Authority, Meekness, Model Minority, etc. Systemic Experiences of Microaggression/-Isms Cultural Intricacies - Immigration Various Stages of Career Development Through small and large group discussion, panelists and participants will discuss the following: As a supervisor, what is your experience with addressing racial, cultural, nationality/national origin, and other intersectional identities with a supervisee? Have you experienced systemic challenges as an AA/AI supervisor that impacted your supervision? Does this influence your decision making when providing affirming, challenging, and/or directive/corrective feedback when a need seems to arise? How can non-AI/AA identified colleagues support those facing challenging clinical supervisory interactions?
