Private Clinical Supervision

Are you a recent social work graduate? Are you seeking additional training and supervision to enhance your clinical skill set? Do you see yourself having a private practice or helping others through psychotherapy but feel uncertain about the path to achieve that goal? Thank-you for considering me to provide you with clinical supervision. And, thank-you for your dedication to the field evidenced by your efforts to improve your practice.

I offer private clinical supervision for those holding bachelors and/or masters degrees in social work. I am SIFI (Seminar in Field Instruction) trained and have assisted yesterday's students grow into today's clinicians.

*If you are interested in pursuing private clinical supervision within the context of a group, please inquire. Depending upon interest and need these services are offered at a reduced rate.
