LCSW Supervision
Congratulations on taking the next step to becoming an LCSW!
Clinical supervision is a unique experience aimed at building your clinical skills and increasing your competence and confidence while under the guidance of a fellow social worker. It is an experience that I hold with high regard, as my own supervision played a vital role in helping me become the social worker that I am today. My goal is to support you in this next chapter of your career and help you to become the social worker you want to be.
Supervision with me looks like: case consultations, skill building, examining theories and practice models, discussing where the personal and the professional intersect, preparing for the licensing exam, exploring areas & populations of interest to you, having access to resources, and getting updates on social work matters and CEU opportunities.
Just like with therapy clients, I believe that goodness of fit is an important aspect of the supervisor-supervisee relationship and offer a free consultation so that we can get to know each other better.
