      <image:title>Services - Professional Supervision</image:title>
      <image:caption>Clinical supervision is a place to get curious about yourself, your clients, and the profession. I have been a Licensed Clinical Social Worker for over a decade and enjoy providing supervision to those who are either on their path to obtaining their clinical license or those wanting to reflect on their therapy practice in a safe space. My goal in supervision is to help you become more aware of your unique strengths and reinforce them, as well as assisting you in identifying areas you may need additional support in order to help further your professional growth. I provide a space that promotes asking questions, exploring your own biases, and feeling comfortable expressing doubts. If you are looking for clinical supervision or consultation please contact me via phone or email.</image:caption>
