LPC-A Supervision

My Approach & Philosophy

I believe in a collaborative approach to therapy, and the same is true of how I view supervision. My job is to teach, coach, guide, and direct you toward being a successful therapist.

Supervision, like therapy, is not one-size-fits-all. Each supervisee has their own unique gifts, talents, and life experiences. My goal is to come to know every professional as a person so that I can support them in developing their unique professional identity through an existential humanist lens. Understanding and honoring each professional as a unique individual first is essential to facilitating professional growth and development.

I am currently accepting new LPC Associates for supervision.

Please contact me with any questions and to set up an interview.

What to expect from supervision

I’ll help you develop your therapeutic identity

Supervision is an opportunity for self-exploration to find your unique therapeutic voice and approach, which are crucial as you move forward in your career. You and the relationship you build with your clients is what will set you apart.

This is a collaborative relationship.

Throughout the supervisory process, we will discuss your progress and explore your strengths and challenges. This is an opportunity to learn, grow, and develop the skills you need to not only become fully licensed, but reach your professional goals.

Your active participation is a must.

I am not here to do it for you, but you are never alone. I encourage your ideas, thoughts, questions, curiosity, and most of all your active engagement in the supervision process to discover who you are as a therapist and what works best for you and your practice.

Are we a good fit?

Finding the right LPC supervisor is key to your growth as a professional counselor. Here are some qualities that I look for in a supervisee:

  • You are an Associate who is ambitious to start your own practice or work in community mental health 
 


  • You bring a wealth of life experience; perhaps this is even your second or third career


  • You are committed to personal as well as professional growth

  • You are open to your own experience as part of your therapeutic approach, not solely relying on therapeutic tools


  • You see this work as personally meaningful, not just a job


  • You have a beginner’s mindset and are eager to learn and improve


  • You are willing to provide and receive feedback, even when it may be uncomfortable
