Reflective Supervision & Training Architecture for Clinicians and Agencies
Cultivating clinical mastery, human-centered systems, and sustainable training pipelines across California.
The Reality of Our Clinical Work
Whether you are a clinician navigating the path to licensure or an agency director attempting to build a sustainable internship pipeline, the current mental health landscape presents steep operational hurdles:
For Pre-Licensed & Associate Clinicians: Supervision is too often treated as a bureaucratic checkbox rather than a reflective, space for building you up and growing your skills. Finding a supervisor who balances clinical depth, neurodivergent-affirming practices, and real-world executive insight is rare.
For Clinical Leaders & Training Directors: Creating and sustaining a high-quality practicum or internship program requires immense bandwidth. Without strong infrastructure and clear processes, the entire system craters from the inside and creates a revolving door for team members at all levels, threatening the very existence of programs and organizations.
Key Areas of Clinical & Supervisory Expertise
Neurodivergent-Affirming & Equitable Care
Specialized guidance in ADHD, Autism, health equity, sensorimotor interventions, and trauma-informed systems.
Bilingual & Culturally Grounded Therapy
Deep experience providing direct care and clinical supervision in Spanish and supporting clinicians who serve diverse, underrepresented populations.
Training Program Development
Creating training programs for all levels of staff - from onboarding peer professionals, leadership induction, and formal graduate training programs. Consistent training leads to consistent results and a cohesive culture.
Career & Leadership Development
Supervision that extends beyond case conceptualization into practice management, executive leadership, and systemic change.
What Past Supervisees Say
We Are a Great Fit If:
As a Clinician: You want a supervisor who views you as a whole person, values humor and authenticity, and offers deep grounding in ND-affirming, systemic care.
As an Organization: You need an executive-level clinician to design, audit, or scale your internal supervision and training programs to ensure high standards and staff retention.
Experienced Clinicians, Too
We Can’t Do it Alone
Isolation in practice is a real risk. It's one of the top factors contributing to ethical complaints against licensed clinicians. Staying connected to other practitioners is critical.
It’s Always Changing
Even when you're further along in your career, the field of mental health is constantly evolving. Our clients change, the world changes, and we need to adapt and grow to continue providing the best possible care.
Trustworthy Guidance
By now you probably know that not all our colleagues have the same experience and ability to offer meaningful consultation. Even the most excellent clinicians may not be great consultants.

What I think we’re asking here is about both how we think about our clients and their underlying psychology PLUS how we’re going to approach working with them to get them relief.
In general, when I start working with a new client, the first thing we’re addressing in our goals are the symptoms that are bothering them the most. To help with that, I will use whatever I have in my toolkit that fits the shape of their need. This is based on my read of the client and who they are plus what I know of what tools will work to help with which symptoms. Sometimes that means for clients with anxiety symptoms, we’re using CBT skills to process unhelpful thoughts. Sometimes for similar symptoms, I might be using more somatic tools. The difference is usually in what it seems like the client will be most receptive and responsive to. From my point of view, that is part of the clinical relationship. And as we know, the relationship between a client and their therapist is the single most important factor in determining clinical outcomes.
For understanding our clients and creating a complete case conceptualization, I often draw from the training I got in my early clinical years: attachment and family systems. While it is often a joke in mental health circles, going back to a client’s earliest childhood experiences and their access - or lack thereof - to a healthy attachment with a primary caregiver does give us a lot of information about how the client came to be as they are today.Some toolkits and modalities that I use and reach for most often:
Dialectical Behavior Therapy (DBT)
Parts Work
Brief Strategic Family Therapy (BSFT)
Trauma-Focused Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (TF-CBT)
Expressive Arts (EXA)
Motivational Interviewing (MI)

My hourly rate for private supervision and consultation is $220 per 50-minute meeting.
Upcoming group options will have more flexible pricing structures.
If you are interested in working with me, but this does not fit your budget: schedule our initial consultation and bring that information to the conversation. Let me know what is workable for you, and we will see what we can do.
Your workplace may be willing to support your consultation needs. If you think this may be the case, I can connect directly to your organization’s leaders to share the options and create a business partnership. When I contract with businesses directly, I can offer more dynamic support and work with entire teams within organizations.

I am qualified to formally supervise both all Associates and Graduate students governed by the California Board of Psychology or Board of Behavioral Sciences with the sole exception of students still enrolled in their MSW program, since I do not hold an MSW degree.
There are a number of other details that have to be reviewed in order to ensure that supervision can count towards hours accrual towards licensure. Since each situation is unique, it is usually most helpful to discuss the specifics of your situation when we have our introductory chat.
In the state of California, supervisors are required to work in the same setting as their supervisee. For this reason, to be a formal/legal clinical supervisor, I must contract directly with your place of work.
For individuals seeking consultation, licensure status and discipline does not matter: I can provide clinical support to any therapist, at any level, in any place. It is my responsibilty to set the scope of my work, and that is part of what the initial chat is for.

I started supervising as soon as I was qualified and the next trainee cohort started at my workplace. Since then, I have supervised 75+ different clinicians over the course of more than a decade.
These clinicians have worked at different organizations and with different populations. These include graduate students who are seeing their very first therapy client ever all the way up to seeing clinicians through their licensing exams (after that, it’s consultation - not supervision).
I have also served as a manager and clinical consultant for therapists who have been in the field longer than I have. There is no point at which we stop needing clinical support.
I’ve also enjoyed working with clinicians of different backgrounds, from different graduate programs, and with very different clinical philosophies. I have found that working with clinicians who see the work somewhat differently than I do only enhances the results for clients and creates the most opportunity for growth.
Additionally, because I’m experienced in Spanish-language therapy I can offer specialized supervision for therapists working with Spanish-speaking clients. There is something special about being able to discuss a client in supervision in the client’s spoken language - without needing to translate for the supervisor. I know how valuable that was for me as a clinician, and I’m glad I can offer that to the clinicians I work with, as well.
