How often will i need supervision?
The Florida Board of Clinical Social Work  Marriage & Family Therapy, and Mental Health Counseling has this to say.
Two (2) years of post-master’s supervised experience under the supervision of a Board approved Qualified Supervisor is required for full licensure.
The supervision experience must have consisted of:
  • At least 100 hours of supervision in no less than 100 weeks;
  • 1,500 hours of face-to-face psychotherapy with clients; and,
  • One (1) hour of supervision every two weeks​
Do you offer exam prep?
Although I make every effort to ensure you feel ready for the exam, I realize that a structured learning format outside of the normal supervision session can increase the likelihood that you won't have to pay for the test twice. Since I do not offer a specific training for the exam, I am very happy to say that Pure Empathy has partnered with ​Resolution Today to offer you an amazing discount of 30% off their exam prep course.
What's your supervision style?
I have a client centered and existential orientation. This is my natural stance as a therapist and where I return anytime I am feeling unbalanced in a session. To balance this out with a toolbox of easy to apply coping and processing skills, I use CBT and REBT. I have training in TF-CBT and loads of resources to share so you can create your own toolbox chock full of resources. Last but never least is my love of working with couples and families. When I'm working with systems, I find Emotionally Focused Therapy to be highly effective and I am continually learning more about this amazing approach to therapy. 
When it comes to my role as a supervisor, I find myself most interested to learn about my interns, their strengths and interests, and then guide them toward their natural stances by reflecting back their absolute potential! I believe that good supervision removes the barriers to growth that come with the newness and timidness of bringing up those things we already feel worried or insecure about. 
I hope to create a space where you can truly grow and develop yourself into the professional and confident therapist you always dreamed of being!
