LLPC Supervision
Reach your LPC licensure goal with individual or group supervision.
David offers a free consultation to potential supervisees to help both parties ascertain how strong the supervisor/supervisee match might be.
LLPC Group Supervision
Virtual Group Supervision Format
Groups will typically aim to have 5-9 people in them. The plan is to meet for 2 hours about twice a month. Group schedules will be posted at least a month in advance. By having around 5-9 people in a group, for 2 hours, allows everyone to have significant time to present while also affording the opportunity to learn from your peers.
In order to meet the 50 hour average/year needed for your supervision hours, as well as provide an additional opportunity to go over your evaluation, discuss cases more in-depth, and/or discuss more private issues, a minimum of 2 individual sessions are expected during the 12 months.
Group Session Rates
Scheduled group sessions are $60/hour/participant. Individual supervision rates for group participants are $90/hour*.
Virtual sessions are via Zoom.
*Group Supervisees automatically receive the lower $90 individual supervision rate

LLPC Individual Supervision
Individual Sessions Overview
I believe there are multiple ways to effectively counsel and supervise someone, and I find that utilizing a blended supervision model proves to be most effective. In addition, counseling and supervision efficacy occur within the therapeutic relationship.
Individual sessions are usually conducted weekly. Due to vacations, holidays, weather, etc. sometimes sessions will be skipped or made up. To help make up a session, a 1.5 hour session may be held on a different week. The goal is to have 50 hours of supervision within a 12 month period in order to achieve the 100 hours needed for your LPC license during the 2 years.
Individual Session Rates
Individual supervision rates: $100 to $200. Scheduling flexibility and virtual sessions are key factors in determining the session rate.
