Why I Became a Board Approved Clinical Supervisor for Mental Health Counselors and Art Therapists

Clinical supervision is a vital component of professional growth for mental health counselors and art therapists. As a board-approved supervisor for LGPC and LGPAT, and a licensed therapist, I understand the importance of creating high-quality supervision spaces. Even after completing graduate education, therapists encounter complex challenges that necessitate ongoing support and guidance.

In this blog, we’ll explore the key benefits of clinical supervision, including enhanced skill development, ethical accountability, and emotional support.
