by I’m available for short-term consultation or long-term supervision; collaborating with others is one of my favorite parts about being in this field!
My focus is to help therapists grow a deeper understanding of child mental health, creativity, music, and play in their work; alongside understanding the nuances of self-as-therapist learning.
Additionally, I am available for speaking events and presentations. I have significant experience presenting at conferences as well as offering learning opportunities for therapists in group practices.
Individual Supervision/Consultation
I’ve been lucky enough to supervise music therapists, counselors in training, music therapy interns, occupational therapy interns, and many others throughout my time as a creative arts therapist. My approach to supervision is similar to the way I approach my clients; person-centered, flexible, and honest. Supervision can occur via phone or Zoom. Our consistency with meeting can be once a week, bi-weekly, or once per month; whatever is best for you at this time.
Group Consultation
Group consultation can be such a wonderful place to learn from others and find answers to questions you didn’t know existed! The community that is built in these spaces is my favorite part; being connected to other like-minded therapists is a powerful thing. Group supervision occurs once per month via Zoom.
