Supervision

As an AAMFT trained supervisor, I bring to the task a family systems perspective informed by the depth perspective of C.G. Jung's Analytical Psychology. My work with you will be collaborative and I am most interested in playing a part in your process of locating and developing your own skills and expertise. I will also support the incorporation of knowledge regarding state regulations, professional ethics and standards of practice in your particular ways of working with people. It is my practice to engage in a “willing suspension of knowing” and to hold open the spaces where you may discover your self as expert in the matters between you and the people you work with, you and your own family of origin, you and the profession you serve. Hours will count toward MFT, MHC and/or MSW licensure.

Consultation

Group and individual consultation and/or supervision are available for those integrating Sandplay Therapy into a practice that includes working with individual adults, families, couples and children. Hours will count toward MFT, MHC and/or MSW licensure. STA credit is also available for consultation and instruction. If interested, please contact me for further details.
