RCC-ACS | Squamish, BC + Online Supervision Across BC & Beyond
Clinical Supervision + Consultation
Being a therapist is a steep learning curve.
Supervision is where you don’t have to climb it alone.
You’re doing meaningful work — and you’re largely doing it in a room by yourself. No one sees what happens in your sessions. No one knows the moment you weren’t sure what to say, or the client you keep thinking about after hours, or the worry that you’re missing something.
That’s not a sign something is wrong. That’s just part of what this work feels like from the inside.
Supervision is where you bring all of that — where you get to think out loud with someone who is right there in it with you.
Based in Squamish, I see supervisees in person locally and from across the Sea to Sky corridor — and online for therapists throughout British Columbia and beyond.
What we might work on
Therapists come to supervision with different needs. Some come with a specific session or client in mind. Others aren’t quite sure what they need yet — and that’s fine too. Whatever you bring is welcome here. You don’t need to have it figured out before you arrive — that’s what we do together.
What tends to come up most:
→ The session you’re still thinking about — A moment where you weren’t sure what to say, or wondered about it after. We slow it down and look at what was happening in the client, in you, and between you.
→ Feeling stuck with a client — When sessions feel circular or you dread the appointment. We look at the patterns, not just the presenting problem.
→ Your reactions to clients — What comes up in you is information, not a problem. Learning to work with transference and countertransference — to use what you’re feeling rather than just manage it — is some of the most valuable work supervision can offer.
→ The “how can I tell if I’m doing a good job?” — Most therapists carry this worry. We can work with it honestly, not just reassure it away.
→ Learning to sit with not knowing — Those moments when you don’t know what to do next and the pull to fill the silence or reach for a technique is strong. Building the trust that something will come — that not knowing isn’t the same as failing — is some of the most important work supervision can support.
→ Seeing the whole person — It’s easy to get pulled into the presenting issue and lose sight of the bigger picture. We look at the patterns underneath — family dynamics, historical relationships, the ways your client has learned to protect themselves — so you’re working with the whole person, not just the problem they brought in.
→ Couples work — Learning not to get pulled toward one partner, holding the relationship as the client, and navigating the intensity couples bring.
→ Building your practice — The clinical and practical are connected. We can look at how you structure your work and sustain yourself in the long run.
Who This Is For
How I work tends to be a good fit if you’re looking for something collaborative and relational — a space where you can think out loud, ask questions, and find your own way of being a therapist rather than following someone else’s.
You might be:
→ Early in your career and looking for a supported space to find your footing and your own voice
→ More experienced but feeling like something has plateaued — or wanting to go deeper with the work
→ Finding that your clients’ trauma, anxiety, or relationship patterns are bringing up edges in you that feel worth exploring
→ In private practice and navigating both the clinical and the practical sides of building a sustainable work life
→ Working with couples and wanting support with the particular intensity that brings
I work with therapists who see adults — individuals and couples. I don’t provide supervision for work with children or adolescents.
Based in Squamish, BC, I offer in-person supervision locally and online supervision for therapists across British Columbia and beyond.
Working Toward Your RCC?
I Can Help With That Too
If you’re working toward your RCC registration and need supervision hours, I’m an Approved Clinical Supervisor (RCC-ACS) and can provide what you need. If direct observation is required, we can figure out how to make that work too.
I offer supervision in-person in Squamish or supervision online across BC and beyond.
Not sure exactly what the supervision requirements are for RCC registration? I’ve written a detailed breakdown of how many supervision hours you need for RCC registration in BC — including what counts, who qualifies as a supervisor, and what to track from the start.
How I Work
How I Work
I’ve been receiving supervision since 2010 and providing it to other therapists since 2016. Early in my career I spent two years as an associate in an established practice, built my own practice alongside that, and worked for three years as an intake and crisis counsellor for an EAP — which meant sitting with an enormous range of presenting issues, often under pressure. I had the support of experienced supervisors and mentors throughout. I was lucky — and I know that’s not everyone’s experience.
The models I’ve trained in have been genuinely helpful — not as rules to follow, but as maps for making sense of the work. What has shaped me most, though, is the experience of having a space where I felt held enough to figure out my own way. That’s still very much in process — and I think that makes me a better companion for therapists who are doing the same.
For supervision to work, you need to feel safe enough to bring the real stuff — the moments you’re not proud of, the clients you’re worried about, the doubts you don’t say out loud. That requires trust, and trust takes time. I don’t take that lightly.
Different therapists need different things — and the same therapist needs different things at different points. Sometimes that means more guidance and direction, especially early on. Sometimes it means sitting with something together without rushing to an answer. I offer ideas gently and check in about what’s actually useful — and I’d rather you tell me if something isn’t landing than sit with it quietly. We figure out what support looks like together.
The goal is to help you find your own way of being a therapist. Not to become a better version of someone else’s approach. Yours.
A Note on Models
There’s a lot of pressure in this field to keep training — the next certification, the next model, the next thing that will finally make you feel like you know what you’re doing. That pressure is real, and the industry around it is significant.
Good models are worth engaging with — they offer maps, language, and ways of making sense of complex clinical territory. The approaches I’ve trained in have genuinely shaped how I work. But no model has all the answers, and most of the ideas being marketed as revolutionary have deep roots in earlier thinkers who rarely get credited.
Lineage matters — in therapy and in the ideas we use.
What concerns me is the way some training programs speak directly to therapist insecurity — implying that without a specific certification, something essential is missing from your practice. Some of these pathways cost tens of thousands of dollars. That’s worth being clear-eyed about. The model that actually speaks to you and fits how you work may not be the most expensive or the most well-marketed one.
The deeper truth is that therapy is what psychologist Robin Hogarth called a “wicked learning environment” — one where feedback is delayed, outcomes are uncertain, and the work changes with every client. The doubt most therapists carry isn’t a sign something is wrong. It’s just the landscape. Learning to sit with that uncertainty is part of becoming a therapist — and it’s something no certification can shortcut.
