Completing the clinical licensure process can be overwhelming, but we are here to help with supervision!
Our available supervisors are state and board approved. They help clinicians through the process of obtaining independent license for social work and/or play therapy credentialing.
Our supervisors help develop goals, work towards clinical competency and support clinical development through individual supervision.
