When I was working toward the hours needed for my LCSW, I found it difficult to find someone that had a similar career path to myself and fit with my schedule. Once I found that fit, the experience I had not only helped me obtain my LCSW, but also helped shape my future as a clinician. Since that time, I have been fortunate to mentor new social workers and supervise those obtaining their hours for licensure and those completing their MSW internships.
I currently have openings for private and group LCSW supervision and private LCPC supervision. Private supervision is available via Zoom and also in-person in the Northern Lake County IL area. Group supervision is either in-person or Zoom based on the group (cannot be both in-person and Zoom in one session). Group clinical supervision takes place twice monthly for two hours. Private supervision is $75 an hour and group is $70 per session (at a $35 an hour rate with a minimum of two participants and a maximum of 5 participants). Discounts are available for those who graduated with their Master’s degree in the last six months and for those from the BIPOC/LGBTQ+ communities. Discounts are also available for paying for supervision upfront and on a monthly basis. Please reach out to discuss.
While I do keep track of our meetings, it is your responsibility to track your hours and ensure you meet the requirements to begin accruing your hours prior to testing. No shows/late cancels (less than 24 hours notice) will be billed the full cost of the session. Digital/card payments processed via Square. Please review my Clinical Supervision Agreement for additional information (Private Clinical Supervision Agreement; Group Clinical Supervision Agreement). The current requirements for LCSW/LCPC clinical supervision are as follows:
MSW Degree from a CSWE approved graduate program and completion of 3,000 hours of supervised clinical professional experience by a LCSW.
DSW/PhD Degree from a CSWE approved doctoral program and completion of 2,000 hours of supervised clinical professional experience.
