Clinical Supervision in Florida

Boedecker Counseling Services offers clinical supervision for Florida Registered Mental Health Counselor Interns working toward licensure: a space for professional growth, clinical guidance, and reflective practice.

If you are a clinician interested in supervision, you are welcome to contact the practice to talk about your goals and whether working together could be a good fit.

What is clinical supervision?

Clinical supervision is a professional relationship that supports a clinician’s growth. It offers a place to think through clinical work with an experienced colleague, strengthen clinical skills and professional judgment, and consider the ethical side of practice.

Supervision is a professional service for clinicians. It is separate from the counseling the practice offers to clients, and it is not counseling or therapy for the supervisee. If you are looking for counseling for yourself, please see the practice’s counseling services. Explore counseling services.

Our approach to supervision

Supervision is shaped around each clinician’s goals. Themes it can explore include:

  • Clinical Case Conceptualization

    Making sense of a client’s concerns, history, and goals, and how that understanding can guide the work.

  • Ethical Decision-Making

    Thinking through ethical questions and professional responsibilities as they come up in practice.

  • Reflective Practice and Professional Development

    Reflecting on your own clinical work, reactions, and growth, and on the kind of clinician you want to become.

  • Clinical Confidence and Judgment

    Building confidence in your clinical decisions and the judgment behind them.

Who is clinical supervision for?

Clinical supervision at the practice supports Florida Registered Mental Health Counselor Interns who are working toward licensure as mental health counselors. Other developing clinicians who want guidance in their professional growth are also welcome to ask whether supervision could be a fit.

Whether supervision with the practice fits your situation, including your stage of training and your goals, is something to discuss when you inquire. Supervision can count toward licensure only when the applicable Florida Board requirements are met, so please confirm the requirements that apply to you.
