Supervision and Consultation

Supporting clinicians in becoming and growing

I've been supervising and training new therapists since 2009, and I find this work deeply rewarding. As a former teacher, I love helping therapists grow their therapeutic minds. I'm an approved clinical supervisor in Washington State, and I hold an unrestricted Washington Mental Health Counselor License I've carried since 2006.

Whether you're a therapist earning hours toward licensure or a fully licensed clinician looking for consultation and a thinking partner, I tailor the work to where you are. Supervision is about more than oversight. It's growth, it's protecting the people in your care, and, where licensure is involved, helping you get ready to practice on your own.

My approach is to support you toward becoming the therapist that is uniquely you. I'll help you think through the transferences and countertransferences in the room, and how to use that material for the benefit of you and your clients. You'll identify your own therapeutic modalities in our work together, and we'll address practical issues like creating and holding the therapeutic frame. My own clinical lens draws heavily on psychodynamic depth work and a mentalization-based frame, which shapes how I supervise as much as how I practice.

Supervision and consultation

Supervision is for therapists earning hours toward licensure. It includes a written agreement and a regular evaluation of your progress. Consultation is for licensed clinicians and is a collaborative thinking partnership with no oversight role. We can talk in a first meeting about which fits you.

Fee: $225 for a 50-minute session. I am available and responsive to your needs outside of our meeting times as well.

Reach out and we'll talk about whether this is the right fit.
