Amanda Mellowspring, MS,RD/N,CEDRD-S trains professionals who are seeking Approved Supervisor status for the CEDS. She shares her supervision style with us, including how she taps into the ‘it’ factor of her supervisees and stated the way she learned best is through case collaboration with therapists and medical providers and multidisciplinary webinars (even though ‘we still have to work and can’t webinar all day’ DARN!)
