Past Experience

Prior supervision/mentoring experience
I’ve served as a mentor and colleague to many clinicians over the past six years as a psychotherapist. I’ve practiced in Florida, Missouri, Louisiana, and Michigan, giving me firsthand knowledge of licensing processes and clinical practice standards across multiple states. I enjoy supporting new therapists in building confidence, clinical clarity, and ethical grounding in their work.
Additional comments
I strive to create a warm, collaborative supervision space that balances clinical growth with personal development. I’m especially passionate about supporting therapists exploring trauma work, psychedelic harm reduction, private practice, and integrative healing modalities. I tailor supervision to your goals and learning style, and I value curiosity, reflection, and authenticity in the supervisory relationship.
