LPC-Associate Supervision in Texas

I provide individual and group supervision for LPC-Associates working toward full licensure in Texas. My supervision style is rooted in Relational Cultural Theory, which means our supervision space will be feminist, affirming, and focused on the development of your authentic clinical style. I offer a collaborative space to grow into the therapist you want to be. I’m physically located in San Antonio, Texas, and I offer in-person as well as virtual supervision.

I’ve been a fully licensed LPC in Texas since 2015 and upgraded to board approved LPC Supervisor in 2022. I’ve supervised several LPC-Associates while they worked on completing their clinical supervision hours until they reached full licensure. I work with LPC-Associates in many settings, including IOP/PHP, group practices, and individual private practices.

  • I work well with LPC-Associates who are curious about the profession and experience of therapy. I use a casual style and add humor to supervision sessions to balance the oftentimes serious nature of our work.

  • I treat LPC-Associates like professionals, because you are professionals.

  • I’m glad to connect you with one of my current or past LPC-Associates if you have questions about the supervision experience.

  • I am willing to work with LPC-Associates who want to start their own private practice during supervision.

Client safety is the primary focus of supervision in Texas. Ultimately, the supervisor you choose must advocate for client safety above all else. I also hope that your time in supervision will help you grow into the most ethical, autonomous, and authentic version of yourself.

In many ways, new counseling graduates are entering a world that feels increasingly anti-therapist. We are all asked to do more with less, to tolerate unreasonable productivity requirements and low pay, to navigate ethical AI use, to watch our profession fall into the hands of venture capital-backed corporations. To enter the field as a professional counselor today takes courage and a willingness to advocate, for clients but also our profession as a whole. You deserve supportive supervision to navigate today’s landscape.

The Texas State Board of Examiners of Professional Counselors details what makes quality supervision in the Rules and Statutes document that guides our profession. You’ll need 4 hours of supervision every month, split between individual supervision hours and group supervision hours. Quality supervision relies on an honest and supportive supervisor/associate relationship. You’ll need to be able to ask questions freely, give and receive feedback, and honestly wrestle with the ethical questions of our profession. Choosing a supervisor is one of the most important decisions of your career; you deserve a supervisor you can trust, challenge, and grow with. I hope it’s me, but if it’s not, I’m glad to help you find a better fit.

Frequently Asked Questions

  • You need 3,000 supervised hours to become a fully licensed LPC in Texas. These hours need to be a combination of active clinical hours (in therapeutic time with clients) and half are indirect hours (reading, continued education, and supervision).

  • You need 4 hours of supervision every month. That requirement begins as soon as the board has issued your license number and continues through the day the board upgrades your license upon completion of your 3,000 supervised hours. A minimum of half of your supervision hours need to be one on one or in triad (two associates to one supervisor). The remaining hours can be in group supervision.

  • Yes! I have supervised LPC-Associates all throughout the state of Texas.

  • I practice in Relational Cultural Theory in both my clinical work and supervision. The theory is grounded in shared power and expertise, feminist critique of society and systems, and a deep mutual respect for different experiences. My style is based in keeping a safe and open space for exploring ideas, questions, and ethical dilemmas.

  • Yes, but time in group supervision needs to be less than half of your total supervision hours. I use a model that supports a mix of individual and group supervision opportunities.
