My experience has been in an array of settings: private practice, both non-profit and state agencies, and in private hospital and hospice settings. As a director, I have guided a team of clinicians, supporting best practices and managing Affiliation Agreements for Clinical Internship and Supervision with the following higher education institutions:

• St. Mary of the Woods College

• Adam’s State College

• Colorado Mesa University

• Colorado Christian University

Supervision may include discussions around the use of assessments, art therapy interventions, theory, ethics, treatment planning, diagnosis, self-care practices, professional identity, managing the informative element of transference and counter-transference in the therapy process and standards of care. Also included are the clinical and administrative aspects of the therapy practice.

My strengths-based, person-centered approach creates an active, collaborative clinical supervision relationship.

As a supervisor, I am bringing my education, experience as a private practice art therapist, entrepreneurial skills, and unique vision to the conversation. Bringing a perspective as a professional artist and private practice owner offers a diverse framework to my supervision role.
