Clinical Supervision for Pre-Licensed Clinicians in Arizona & Colorado

Transitioning from graduate school to associate or candidate status is an exciting milestone—but navigating the path to independent licensure can feel overwhelming.

Between tracking hours, managing complex caseloads, and preventing burnout, you need more than just someone to sign off on your logs. You need a trusted mentor, an ethical sounding board, and an advocate for your professional growth.

If you are a pre-licensed professional in Arizona or Colorado, I provide high-quality, board-compliant clinical supervision designed to help you build a thriving, confident career.

Meeting State Standards with Confidence

Both Arizona and Colorado have strict, highly regulated rules regarding who can provide supervision. I maintain full compliance with both state boards so that every single hour you spend with me counts toward your independent license.

  • In Arizona, the Board of Behavioral Health Examiners requires supervisors to meet rigorous training standards. My supervision services fulfill:

    • The 12-Hour Core & 3-Hour Tutorial Requirements: Fully compliant with AZBBHE’s educational and registry standards.

    • Contemporaneous Documentation: Ensuring our session logs are documented safely and accurately within the state's required 10-business-day window.

    • Observation Hours Coordination: Assisting you in safely navigating the state's mandatory 10 hours of live or recorded session observations.

  • Colorado’s Department of Regulatory Agencies enforces strict post-degree supervision criteria. My services meet Colorado's standards by ensuring:

    • The "3-3-4" Rules Met: I possess the required post-licensure clinical hours and specific, board-approved clinical supervision training.

    • Comprehensive Exam Preparation: Integrating case conceptualization and legal standards that align perfectly with the Colorado Jurisprudence Exam and your national testing goals (NCE/ASWB).

My Supervision Philosophy:

Growth, Not Just Checkboxes

Supervision shouldn't feel like a weekly administrative chore. My goal is to create a secure, collaborative space where you can take off the "expert" mask and truly learn.

Our work together will focus heavily on:

  • Advanced Case Conceptualization: Moving past basic triage to deep, theory-driven treatment planning.

  • Ethical Dilemmas & Boundary Setting: Navigating complex clinical scenarios, crisis management, and the legal nuances of private practice or agency work.

  • Therapist Self-Care & Burnout Prevention: Learning how to leave work at work, identify vicarious trauma, and build a sustainable career.

  • The Business of Therapy: If your long-term goal is private practice, I integrate real-world guidance on networking, branding, and practice management into our supervision.

Get Started

Case Consultation

Therapy is deeply rewarding work, but it can also be isolating. When navigating complex trauma, highly nuanced OCD presentations, or cases that feel clinically “stuck,” having a trusted peer to consult with isn’t just good practice—it is an essential part of preventing burnout and maintaining the highest standard of client care.

As a fellow licensed clinician and the Clinical Director of Hope Counseling, I offer professional, one-on-one clinical consultation for licensed therapists seeking a fresh perspective, specialized modality guidance, or an ethical sounding board.

Areas of Specialized Consultation

Whether you are looking to deepen your conceptualization of a specific case or are navigating the administrative and emotional complexities of practice, I provide consultation centered on:

  • Trauma & Complex PTSD: Integrating trauma-informed frameworks to safely navigate dissociation, attachment wounds, and nervous system dysregulation.

  • Obsessive-Compulsive Disorder (OCD): Navigating the nuances of ego-dystonic themes, managing therapeutic roadblocks, and structuring effective clinical timelines.

  • Modality Integration & "Stuck" Cases: Blending parts work, somatic awareness, and cognitive behavioral tools. I provide strategic guidance on combining Internal Family Systems (IFS), EMDR, and Exposure and Response Prevention (ERP) so you can help clients move from survival mode to clarity.

  • Crisis & Complex Clinical Assessments: Drawing from my extensive background in emergency rooms, inpatient units, and crisis evaluation to help you safely conceptualize high-acuity cases, safety planning, and systemic care.

  • Perinatal & Maternal Mental Health: Consulting on postpartum challenges, life transitions, and the unique emotional intersection of motherhood and caregiving.

My Approach to Peer Consultation

I view peer consultation as a deeply respectful, collaborative, and non-judgmental space. You do not need to wear the "expert mask" here. Our time together is a confidential container where we can break down complex case dynamics, explore countertransference, double-check ethical boundaries, and expand your clinical toolkit.

My goal is to send you back to your practice feeling grounded, inspired, and clinically confident.
