Clinical Supervision

Supervision for Provisionally Licensed Counselors in North Carolina & Colorado

Clinical Mentorship that takes the work AND you seriously.

You chose this field because the impact we make matters. I believe this process should be more than just a box to be checked off. It should be a space that challenges your thinking, deepens your clinical confidence, and helps you develop a professional identity that is authentically yours.

I am currently accepting LCMHCA supervisees in North Carolina and LPC Candidates in Colorado virtually. I serve graduates from CACREP Accredited schools such as Colorado State University at Fort Collins (CSU), University of Colorado at Denver (CU Denver), North Carolina Central University (NCCU) or Western Carolina University (WCU). Options available for group and individual supervision.

Why work with me?

I take ethics seriously, perhaps more than most (as I've been told). My supervision is built on the pillars below that I believe are essential for any clinician:

Multicultural Competence & Anti-Oppressive Practice: we don’t just "discuss diversity", we examine how identity, power, and culture show up in the room, in the therapeutic relationship, and in your own clinical lens.

Neuroscience-Informed Insight: I pull from the biopsychosocial model to help you understand the why behind your clients' symptoms, so your interventions are grounded in how the nervous system actually functions.

Person-Centered Development: We build from where you are, focusing on your existing strengths to cultivate your unique clinical voice.

Focus Areas

I am a strong fit for supervisees who work with marginalized communities and are interested in integrating person-centered care with neuroscience. My areas of focus include:

  • Trauma-Informed Care

  • Neurodivergence (ADHD, Autism, & AuDHD)

  • Stress management and Nervous System Regulation

  • Racial/Cultural Competency Development

  • College Students & Emerging Adults

  • Substance Use & Dual Diagnosis

  • Ethical Decision-Making & Documentation Support

My Supervision Style

I view supervision as collaborative. It is a space where both you and your client have a distinct voice that gets to be heard, and where trust is the foundation for everything we do.

My guidance fosters introspection and vulnerability. I prioritize building a relationship where you feel safe bringing your "mistakes" and doubts into the room. We move through hurdles with transparency, because when you feel safe, your clients are better served.

While I hold the roles of teacher and gatekeeper, I lead with humility. I recognize the power dynamic in our sessions, but I also know I have much to learn from you. We work together to refine your unique clinical lens.

As a graduate of East Carolina University and Adams State University, and having worked extensively with underserved and comorbid populations, I know there is no "ideal client." I teach you to discard judgment, master multicultural competence, and meet every individual exactly where they are, not where we expect them to be.


Experience the freedom of mentorship outside of your workplace.

By working with a supervisor unaffiliated with your clinical practice, you gain a truly confidential space to discuss burnout, ethical dilemmas, and professional growth without it coming back on you.

Private Practice Mentorship

While clinical mastery is the foundation of your career, I believe in supporting the whole clinician even outside of client sessions, including if you one day want to start your own practice.

Unlike a group practice that provides you with a caseload to manage, I provide you with the tools to build your own. We navigate the "business of therapy" together, ensuring you are prepared for the transition from an associate to an independent solo practitioner.

Building your Professional Identity

Our sessions include discussing the logistical and entrepreneurial side of our field, such as:

Defining Your Niche: Identifying the specific populations and clinical areas where you feel most impactful.

Ethical Marketing & Branding: Learning how to reach your ideal clients through authentic, HIPAA-compliant, and affirming strategies.

The Infrastructure of Independent Practice: Guidance on selecting EHR systems, navigating insurance credentialing vs. private pay, and building a sustainable practice schedule.

The Goal: My mentorship is designed to see you move from a provisionally licensed counselor to a confident, independent peer with a brand and a business that reflects your values.

Is This a Good Fit for You?

Supervision with Dr. Mary is designed for you if:

  • You are an LCMHCA (NC) or LPCC (CO) working toward full licensure.

  • You serve BIPOC and/or LGBTQIA+ populations.

  • You want a supervisor who integrates cultural humility into your clinical identity.

  • You want to learn how to integrate self-care into your own life to support your clinical work.

  • You are ready to explore how your own identity and values impact your clinical work.

  • You value high ethical standards and want a supervisor who does, too.

  • You want to understand how systems and oppression impact mental health.

What’s the cost?

Transparency is a core value of my practice. The investment for a 60-minute individual session is $150, and 2 hour group sessions are $75. I reserve a limited number of sliding scale spots to ensure quality mentorship is accessible for provisionally licensed counselors.
