Clinical Supervision and Consultation

I am doing my life's work and am excited to assist in your own professional development!  I have experience supervising interns and licensure candidates and providing clinical consultation.  My supervisory style is warmly direct and collaborative. I see our relationship as going far beyond me just sharing expertise to one of helping you create your own personal style, reflect on areas of growth, and enhance your skills.  I have experience with helping other professionals work through their burnout and trauma stewardship and confront imposter syndrome. I am never done learning and find the ongoing research in our field to be fascinating. I help supervisees identify their own professional learning goals and my additional Master in Library and Information Science degree gives me solid expertise in finding resources for learning.

My professional involvement in diverse communities and the agencies that serve them has shaped the nature of my private practice. I have experience helping clinicians critically reflect and grow in the areas of privilege, intersectionality, and racism in their own practice.  If this does not appeal to you, we may not be a good fit, as I believe this ongoing inquiry is essential for every practitioner including myself.

Currently I work in private practice with adults and children ages 5+ with a wide variety of issues and goals and have a special focus on culturally responsive health care, cancer and chronic illness, childless/childfree individuals, anxiety, work-life balance, and play therapy. I am an integrative therapist, meaning that I draw from several theories of behavior change and this lack of rigidity allows me to collaboratively shape my work to meet the needs of my clients.

I have a strong passion for helping other therapists understand and create safety for clients and families who are childless or childfree. While my professional life is quite child-full I am personally childless. If you have some of these individuals on your caseload and want consultation in this area please reach out! If you are a fellow childless or childfree therapist I am excited to support you as well. Click here for more info about specifics as well as an email list to join!

I am a member of the Washington State Society for Clinical Social Work.

I offer both supervision and consultation.  What is the difference, you ask?  A supervisory relationship is not a short one, and focuses on the needs and growth trajectory of the individual supervisee. Commonly, this is when a candidate for licensure seeks supervision of their clinical practice and the many clinical issues that it may entail.  A consultative relationship may be a one-time or infrequent meeting focused on sharing some kind of expertise around a specific question or theme.  An example of this could be a clinician contacting me for a meeting to discuss how to create a more affirmative relationship with a childless client.
