Clinical Supervision for LSWs
Supervision for LSWs working toward their LCSW, plus case consultation for clinicians who want another set of eyes.
Supervision with Shira Somerstein, LCSW
“What’s the function of the behavior?”
“Read Yalom.”
“Utilize the here and now.”
These are all great pieces of advice that I got from my supervisors. Let me be that person for you. I supervise social workers as they work toward licensure. I also consult with clinicians who want another set of eyes on a difficult case.
