Clinical supervision and consultation provide a space for thoughtful reflection on the relational and unconscious dimensions of clinical work. My approach is grounded in psychodynamic principles, attending to transference and countertransference, defensive organization, developmental history, attachment patterns, and the relational field that unfolds between therapist and patient. We examine enactments, repetitions, and internal object configurations that shape both clinical material and the therapist’s internal responses. This work becomes not only case consultations, but an exploration of the clinician’s evolving professional identity and use of self in treatment.
Within this frame, we remain attentive to projection and to the ways relational themes may become activated in the therapeutic process. When symbolic material emerges, it is considered within a grounded psychodynamic understanding of structure, affect regulation, and relational meaning. When trauma work is involved, I support the integration of EMDR within a psychodynamic framework — helping clinicians think carefully about pacing, containment, dissociation, and the meaning-making process alongside somatic awareness.
While my supervisory orientation is psychodynamically informed, I also supervise clinicians working within structured and contemporary modalities, including cognitive-behavioral, attachment-based, parts-oriented, and somatically informed approaches. Supervision supports not only technical competence within these models, but the capacity to think psychodynamically about enactments, unconscious communication, attachment dynamics, and the therapist’s internal experience. We also attend to clinical reasoning, documentation practices, risk assessment, mandated reporting responsibilities, boundary management, and adherence to legal and ethical standards that govern professional practice.
I have provided clinical supervision to PsyD students at a California graduate school, supporting their development of ethically grounded, psychologically rigorous, and professionally responsible practice. Supervision includes sustained attention to professional identity formation — cultivating theoretical clarity, ethical discernment, reflective capacity, and steadiness in the face of clinical complexity.
Clinical supervision and consultation ultimately provide a space where clinical skill, legal and ethical accountability, psychological maturity, and professional responsibility converge — strengthening the therapist’s capacity to work with depth while maintaining structure, boundaries, and clarity within contemporary standards of care.
Fee: $200 per 50-minute online session. Clinical Consultation sessions are scheduled according to need and may be short-term or ongoing.
Weekly clinical supervision is available for post-doctoral registered psychological associates who have already completed their required licensure hours or are not seeking to accrue hours toward licensure. This supervision focuses on professional development and complies with Board of Psychology regulations. Please contact me to discuss the supervisory structure and financial terms. Depth-oriented clinical consultation, distinct from clinical supervision, may be available to both pre-doctoral and post-doctoral clinicians.
