"I haven't had the opportunity to supervise group activities yet. I've been assisting in group activities for the past two years and look forward to the opportunity to leave activities in your clinic."

Provide the interviewer with an answer which addresses the question but also your favorite part about it. Talk about specific sessions that meant a lot to you or sessions that probably didn't go well as you thought they should have and what you learned from them.

Neha Naik

"I supervise group therapies and activities at least three times a week. My direct supervisor has trained me in conflict resolution and communications modules and trusts me with these activities. I enjoy group activities mainly because they encourage patients to think about others who are going through the same thing as them - and make patients feel less alone. It also strengthens their belief in behavioral health and makes them more open to treatment plans."
