I provide clinical supervision for mental health practitioners in New York State.
A strong clinical supervisor is a pillar, strengthening your clinical practice.
As an approved NYS clinical supervisor, I have signed off on supervision hours for many clinicians including interns, MHCs, MFTs, psychoanalysts, LMSWs and LCSWs, without issue. Supervision provides guidance and support on your clinical work. You know that. But how about these:
- Letters of recommendation
- Referrals
- Private practice know how
- New York City mental health experience both in the community and privately
I have an integrative approach to clinical supervision, but my training is psychodynamic. I see value in exploring our transference, relationship dynamics and self understanding. However, the reality is you have some tricky cases and we need to get into those. I have provided practical supervision in clinics for over ten years. My role as clinical director included oversight and tracking of “high risk” cases for the clinic.
Providing good clinical supervision is something I take seriously. It is part of my personal values to do the best I can for clinicians.
