Supervision is usually the last step in a lengthy process aimed at licensure and the ability to work independently. It only makes sense to get the best possible supervision to get you ready to not only pass your licensing exam but also gain valuable hands on experience helping clients achieve their goals. I have worked in a number of settings, including as a technician in a medical detox facility, team leader in an Intensive Outpatient Program for co-occuring disorders and now as a therapist in a private practice. Did you know you can apply your supervised hours toward licensure as both an LPC and CSAC? Basically earning 2 licenses for the cost of one. If you’re ready to start, contact me and let’s see if we’re a good match.
