Supervision
The therapist I am today is a direct reflection of the incredible supervisors and educators who shaped my growth over the past 10+ years. That experience is what makes supporting and mentoring others one of the most meaningful parts of my work.
I provide supervision / consultation for:
-
Pre-licensed counseling associates pursuing LPC licensure from the OBLPCT
-
Provisional art therapists (ATR-P) pursuing ATR / ATR-BC credentials from the ATCB & Art therapy licensure (LAT or LCAT) from the State of Oregon
-
Post-licensure counselors and art therapists seeking ongoing consultation, support, and/or mentorship
-
Clinicians transitioning into private practice
-
Providers who want to learn more about eating disorder recovery care planning for their clients
My Background and Training
My clinical specialty lies at the intersection of trauma healing, neurodiversity-affirming care, and LGBTQIA+ identity development. I work primarily with adults and older adolescents. I specialized in eating disorder recovery support and body image repair for 5 years. I have additional experience with eating disorder recovery, body image repair/body-trust development, grief and loss, OCD, suicidal ideation, self-harm behaviors, mood disorders, and psychosis.
Before moving into private practice, I worked across a wide range of treatment settings and age groups including schools, outpatient clinics, hospitals, partial hospitalization and intensive outpatient programs, and subacute residential treatment. I'm comfortable facilitating individual, group, and family therapy, as well as parent and caregiver consultations and interdisciplinary care team meetings. I know firsthand what it means to function within a multi-disciplinary team, including the care coordination demands that graduate programs often don't prepare you for.
What Makes Me a Great Supervisor?
I have a broad and diverse work history, and I continually deepen my knowledge through ongoing clinical practice and continuing education. My supervisory style is open, authentic, and emotionally attuned. I genuinely invest in getting to know my supervisees as individuals, because understanding who you are as a person informs how I can best support your professional growth.
I balance reflective exploration with direct feedback, so you feel genuinely heard and leave sessions with clear, actionable guidance. I'm especially passionate about arts-based supervision, which uses both imagery and language as tools for examining what happens in therapeutic encounters and within the broader systems we work in.
Please note: I may not be the right supervisory fit if you work predominantly with children, with teens or adults navigating substance use disorders, or with high-risk or actively crisis-presenting clients. As a fully remote supervisor, those populations require a level of on-site, hands-on support I'm not positioned to provide.
