I teach clinical supervision courses that meet criteria for most U.S. states as well as Canada and UK counsellors and psychotherapists. See course information HERE.
United States
In the United States, if you are a Licensed Professional Counselor, Licensed Mental Health Counselor or some variation of this title, you may be residing in a state that requires you to hold the Approved Clinical Supervisor (ACS) credential or equivalent (varies from state to state) to conduct clinical supervision. Be sure to check with your state’s licensing board for specifics. If you are seeking the ACS, my courses satisfy the educational requirement and also satisfy many state requirements. If you have any questions please contact me.
