“Supervision is the best investment a therapist can make in their work, their clients, and their own professional growth”
Robin Shohet
I offer clinical supervision to Associate Social Workers (ASW) and other individuals in the process of obtaining licensure in the state of California.
Clinical supervision is for the supervisee to have a space for consultation on cases and learn good clinical, ethical, and legal practice. Supervision is crucial in protecting client’s welfare and ensuring the integrity of clinical services. Just as it is important for the client’s needs, it is also just as important for the clinician. This is the space to process and explore your own bias, countertransference, and perspective that you bring into the session space. Compassion fatigue and burnout are very real and it is important to have support to ensure you are taking care of yourself just as you are trying to take care of others. Supervision should be a time to check-in with yourself and see what you need.
