On this page you can read more about the CLI Fellowship of Susan van Rijen (ESSB) about reflective practice and self-assessment in clinical psychology education.

Gaps that students experience in the alignment of clinical psychology education with clinical practice (when dealing with situations that require a reflective approach or self-evaluation of their professional development) reflect the foundational competencies of Reflective practice (that is: an intentional process of reflecting on one’s clinical practice) and Self-Assessment (of one's clinical competencies). In this innovation project, tutorials on Reflective practice will be implemented into the Master Child and Adolescent Clinical Psychology, supported by a Self-assessment instrument for clinical competencies that will be continued during the practical internships. The aim of this innovation is to enable students to develop skills for self-guidance of their professional development.
