What is Clinical Supervision?

To qualify for the clinical social work credential, you must hold a masters degree in social work from an accredited university, and be licensed in the State of Texas. The applicant then completes a minimum of 100 hours of face-to-face supervision, over the course of 3000 hours of professional experience, with a board-approved supervisor.
​
For new and re-application for LCSW, please visit Texas State Board of Social Worker Examiners website for forms and requirements. The Clinical Supervision Plan (Form III) and the Clinical Supervision Verification for LCSW (Form V) have been modified.  These modifications have been made with the intent of decreasing the turnaround time in this process.  Please do not use versions of this form with a revision date prior to January 1, 2017.

What can supervisees expect from me? 

The relationship between supervise and supervisor is unique one built on trust and mutual understanding. I am a psychodynamic therapist who is engaging, encouraging and uses a strengths-based approach to supervision. My hope is to provide you with a supportive, safe space where you can develop your clinical skills and find answers to your questions. I bring my extensive experience and training to the supervision room: 
  • cognitive-behavioral, person-centered, solution-focused, motivational therapy and the 12-Step transformational model with individuals experiencing substance use issues with co-occurring disorders.
  • grief and bereavement hospice experience with children and adults.
  • administrative and ethical experience from the perspective of working for a variety of non-profit agencies and integrated health clinics.
