Private Practice Supervising

Are you setting up supervision for associates in your practice? Do you have a new associate you want to introduce to your practice in the best way for both of you? Do you want to review your supervision practices and include current regulations and practices that reflect your own style and approaches? Are you grappling with creating a supervision practice that honors both your needs and labor, and the needs and labor of your associates?

This is an opportunity to create and expand supervision in private practice to reflect the supervisor, associates, and folks they work with. This is open to both masters and doctoral level supervisors and pre-licensed therapists. We include lawyer-reviewed examples of the documentation you need, options for paying associates, legal and ethical considerations, accessibility, and handling the in’s and outs of supervision in a practice setting including fees, client referrals, and supporting pre-licensed therapists as they start and close their journey through a private practice position. As we go, we will address best practices, common areas where folks make different choices, differences between licensing boards that can create confusion about rules and expectations, and deconstructing traditional models to create access and best reflect you, your supervision, and your associates.

I am familiar with the legal requirements for supervisors in California, and can provide California supervisors with information on setting up supervision practices. I am happy to work with therapists in other locations, however I am unable to provide information on state-specific requirements.
