Clinical Supervision for Psychotherapists in Ontario

Compassionate, evidence-based supervision for therapists who want to grow their clinical skills, deepen their trauma competency, and build a fulfilling, sustainable practice.


When You’re Ready to Grow Your Skills and Feel More Confident in Your Work

Whether you're a Qualifying Registrant working toward independent practice or an experienced therapist wanting to deepen your trauma framework, good supervision should do more than tick a box. It should help you feel genuinely grounded in your work — clearer in your case conceptualization, more attuned to what's happening in the room, and better supported in carrying the weight of what you hear.

I offer individual clinical supervision with a particular focus on complex trauma, self-of-therapist exploration, and the relational dynamics that show up when we sit with people in pain.

You Might Be Looking for Supervision That Helps You:

  • Work more confidently with complex trauma and attachment injuries

  • Understand how early relational patterns — yours and your clients' — shape what happens in the therapy room

  • Explore self-of-therapist themes with a supervisor who takes that work seriously

  • Deepen your trauma-informed and nervous-system-aware framework

  • Strengthen case conceptualization and treatment planning for complex presentations

  • Navigate emotionally activating client material without losing your footing

  • Develop as a clinician in a way that feels ethical, relational, and sustainable

Effective therapy starts with grounded, well-supported clinicians.

Clinical Supervision to Help You Strengthen Your Skills With Care and Integrity

My supervision is trauma-informed, attachment-focused, and deeply relational. I draw on a multisystemic approach to case conceptualization — one that holds the full context of a client's life, including trauma history, intergenerational patterns, social location, and nervous system responses.

A significant focus of my supervision is self-of-therapist work. I believe that who you are as a person is inseparable from who you are as a clinician, and that exploring your own attachment history, emotional responses, and areas of activation is not a side conversation — it's central to doing this work well. I aim to create a supervisory space that is collaborative, honest, and genuinely safe enough for you to bring what you're actually struggling with.

I also bring an awareness of social location and privilege as ongoing dimensions of clinical practice. Reflecting on how our identities and assumptions shape our presence with clients — and in the supervisory relationship — is a continuous part of the work I do with supervisees, not a one-time exercise.

My clinical background includes specializations in Deep Brain Reorienting (DBR), Ego State Therapy, EMDR, and Emotionally Focused Therapy. I hold an EMDR Certified Therapist credential and bring that grounding to supervision, particularly around understanding trauma processing, dissociation, and shock responses.

Please note: I do not offer DBR consultation or EMDR consultation as part of supervision — this is not a substitute for modality-specific training or consultation in those approaches. What I offer is trauma-informed clinical supervision with an informed understanding of how these frameworks shape clinical thinking.

My Trauma-Informed Approach

My supervision integrates several core elements to help therapists deepen their understanding of trauma, attachment, and nervous-system responses:

  • Understand how early experiences and relational patterns show up in the therapy room.

  • Understand how DBR-informed thinking shapes trauma conceptualization.

  • Explore how dysregulation appears in clients (and in us as therapists) and how to work with it safely and effectively.

  • Build clarity around treatment direction, therapeutic pacing, and skillful intervention.

  • Reflect on emotional load, countertransference, boundary clarity, and sustainable practice.
