Texas Supervision Symposium

Save the Date!

Friday June 27th, 2025  9:30am-4:30pm

The symposium is open to anyone involved in supervision or formation of trainees at a university or college counseling center in Texas. This includes all licensed mental health professionals, as well as doctoral interns or other trainees who supervise.  The TSS offers 5 hours of continuing education credit for licensed mental health providers.

Theme: Embracing the Tensions

As trainers, we often hold many tensions.  Whether dealing with political events that affect us and our trainees, forging connections across all kinds of differences, or navigating differing opinions of trainee performance, the strains are real.  How can we embrace these tensions and work towards healthier relationships, trainees, staff, and trainers?

There is a change to registration this year.  We have been informed that the TSS is now required to collect sales tax on registration fees.  We know the vast majority of you all are exempt from sales tax in your university role, and we have to collect verification of this.

Please verify your tax-exempt status by sending the exemption form to Karen_Lee@baylor.edu and Linda_P_Cortes@baylor.edu  Failure to email this form within 7 days of your tax-exempt registration will result in a cancelation and a refund.
