So you need supervision.
Grad school doesn’t teach you how to be a therapist
The first few years you are licensed is where you learn the bulk of your clinical skills. Who you want to be as a therapist emerges as you work with different kinds of clients and learn different ways of working with various clinical presentations. Supervision is the way we make meaning of our experiences, process our mistakes, and (hopefully) develop into highly skilled, effective and competent clinicians.
I feel fortunate to have had quality clinical supervision during my time as an LCSWA. My clinical supervisor talked me into starting my private practice, and I wouldn’t be doing what I am today without her guidance, support, and confidence in me and my abilities.
I have a vision where therapists can do meaningful work with clients in a creative, playful, and values-aligned way and get paid a fair living wage in the process. I aim to teach my supervisees how to do this work and actively prevent burnout from the start of their careers, so they can keep doing this work as long as feels aligned for them. This field has so much to offer; infinite flexibility and the opportunity to use our creativity to help clients heal while creating groups, programs, offerings, and interventions that highlight your own unique skills, abilities, and insights. Being a therapist is not one-size-fits-all. You get to choose what it looks like for you. I’d love to help you create your own path forward.
