North Carolina – LCMHCS
Clinical Supervision is offered for professionals pursuing a counseling license in the states of North Carolina, Michigan, and Georgia. I provide clinical supervision to persons who have a limited or associate level counselor designation (e.g., LCMHCA – NC; LLPC – MI; APC or LAPC – GA) who want to acquire hours towards obtaining their full license in the states of North Carolina, Michigan, or Georgia. Individual supervision can be provided via secure video conferencing – where your state permits. Please contact me to determine if we are a good fit for supervision.
My goal as a supervisor is to help the supervisee fully understand and meet the requirements for full, independent, licensure and to guide the supervisee in their professional and personal growth as a counselor. I utilize an integrative model of supervision for which Bernard’s discrimination model lays the foundation. I also find that elements of the Integrative Development Model are useful. This model showcases the supervisory relationship as the basis for learning. Utilizing these models allows me the flexibility that I need to meet the varying needs of each of my supervisees. I take pride in creating an environment that allows supervisees to grow and flourish, thus fostering movement to the next developmental level as a counselor.
Through open and honest dialogues and occasional homework, I work with my supervisees to provide a framework for their journey to fully licensed professional practice.
Focus of Supervision:
– Who am I as a counselor?
– What populations do I specialize and what brings me joy with these populations?
– What is my awareness and comprehension of ethics, multiculturalism and client welfare?
– What theoretical orientations fit my practice style and how do I conceptualize clients within this frame?
– Am I aware of my personal strengths and limitations as a counselor?
– What is my personal responsibility and accountability?
