Rural and remote health workforce shortages continue to be a major concern, with many rural and remote organisations relying on students and early career health professionals to meet the health needs of their communities. However, in psychology there is a high supervision load for students and early career psychologists to be able to practice, with geographically rural and remote settings placing a larger burden on supervisors because of other demands-such as professional isolation and complex client presentations. To ensure students and early career psychologists thrive, and choose to continue to practice, in these settings, it is imperative that remote supervision and supervision of geographically rural and remote students and early career psychologists is viewed as competency. The current research extends on an earlier systematic review by exploring the perspectives of experienced supervisors to understand the unique demands of rural and remote practice and supervision (James Cook University Human Research Ethics Committee approval H7961). Focus groups were conducted by one researcher (SV) over a six-month period, with 30 psychologists participating in 15 groups (median group size of 2; range: 1-7). Interviews were recorded and transcribed verbatim by an independent transcriber. The transcripts were entered into NVIVO and placed into thematic themes two researchers (MA and KS). Disagreements were resolved through discussion. Results were viewed through a competency lens with similarities and differences between urban and rural/remote practice/supervision discussed in the context of the sustainability of attracting and retaining a rural and remote psychology workforce. The impact of moving to a primarily online environment during COVID was also examined. Recommendations for supporting, building, and retaining the psychology workforce are made within the context of career development pathways/opportunities, community belonging, and professional mentoring and supervision. The importance of supervisors who are trained to provide supervision within a remote model is also addressed.
