Description
If you are a Board Approved Supervisor, then you may find that your standard client agreement for therapeutic clients is not suitable for the supervisory relationship. This Supervision Agreement template is drafted with the Psychology Board of Australia’s Guidelines for Supervisors as a foremost consideration. Ensure you have adequate terms of engagement in place in respect of privacy, informed consent, the risk of practice, and the storage of your supervisees information.
Included in the Supervision Agreement template are optional terms in relation to:
- Setting the scope and terms of the Supervisory relationship;
- Informed consent for:
- Supervision;
- Recording telehealth and in-person conversations; (in accordance with the relevant laws);
- Use of practice management software;
- Use of Artificial Intelligence tools (in compliance with AHPRA’s guidelines);
- Termination of the supervisory relationship;
- Warranties by the Supervisor
- Collection, use and disclosure of Sensitive Personal information (in compliance with Australian Privacy Laws);
- Health (and Covid19) Policy;
- Indemnities and releases in favor of the Supervisor;
- Cancellation Policy;
- Payment Terms;
- Process for complaints and feedback in accordance with the APS 2025 Code of Conduct;
- Addendum 1 – Storage of Credit Card details in accordance with PCI DSS standards;
- Addendum 2 – Consent to disclose the client file to third parties (including machinery ensuring cyber security);
Our templates are drafted in plain English. We don’t use complex legal terminology or burden you with extensive and convoluted definitions. We don’t bundle multiple forms or require complex procedure. Our templates are designed to be relied on by busy practitioners to keep things fair, transparent and accessible.
