| Support in the Literature for Reflective Supervision/Consultation“Over 30 years of clinical experience and empirical evidence indicates that RS/C increases the quality of infant mental health services by reducing vicarious trauma, staff turnover, and bias while increasing practitioner knowledge and improved practice, job satisfaction, efficacy, and responsiveness" (Gilkerson & Kopel, 2005; Virmani & Ontai, 2010; Watson, Gatti, Cox, Harrison, & Hennes, 2014; Harrison, 2016). REFLECTIVE Call to ActionReflective Supervision/Consultation is more than a skill set—it’s a way of being. It’s a commitment to cultivating the inner lives of professionals so they can show up fully, with compassion, clarity, and connection, in service of infants, young children, and families. RSC invites us to slow down, reflect deeply, and tend to our own growth—because how we care for ourselves and one another shapes the care we offer to others. Whether you're seeking to deepen your own reflective capacity or create systems that center relationships and equity, RIAIMH is here to walk with you. Together, we can build a culture of reflection that supports the well-being of the workforce and transforms how we lead, serve, and sustain the field of infant and early childhood mental health. |
