Supervision for Counseling Psychology Trainees/Interns/Associates/Groups
I supervise because I have a passion for teaching and nurturing others into becoming the most authentic version of themselves as therapists, counselors and healers. This implies that I am not interested in creating clones! Because I am so serious about being an excellent and creditable Supervisor, I am currently in the process of completing my certification to become an AAMFT (American Association of Marriage & Family Therapists) Approved Supervisor.
My supervisory style is direct though empathic, reliable, professional, encouraging and compassionate. I aim to create a joyful, safe learning space while including humor, authenticity and presence. Using a Somatic, Transpersonal and Systems framework, I encourage my trainees/interns/associates to find and follow their intuition balanced with learning AAMFT core competencies, logic, theory, legal and ethical sense. I appreciate using audio recordings and video of trainee/intern work when available. I am detailed and conscious of following best practices for progress and process notes and HIPAA compliant records.
Also included:
COST:
Individual Supervision done weekly or every two weeks at $80-120 per hour sliding scale based on caseload.
Group Supervision meets 1-3 times per month for 1-2 hours at $50 per hour per person.
Special resources I offer trainees and interns:
In former careers, I held positions in more traditionally corporate settings such as an Associate Creative Director, Art Director, Marketing Consultant and Journalist which allows me to offer a certain professionalism, advertising and marketing savvy to my trainees/interns. As a yoga instructor, practitioner, Unity Sunday school teacher and long time meditator, I offer teaching, Somatic awareness and mindfulness including transpersonal and spiritual concepts to my work and relationships.
