Akin to the therapeutic relationship, I believe that the dynamics of the supervisory relationship are critical to the success of the supervisee.  As a supervisor, I work to collaborate with psychotherapists in training to provide an environment of warmth and challenge.  I believe in supporting the ongoing development of supervisees, and in the process, I open myself to continuing my own development as a clinical psychologist.  I welcome feedback on my style of supervising, and I work diligently to support a supervisee in his/her style of therapy.  Together, we will unravel the multiple dimensions of working with clients, maintaining a healthy sense of self, and strive for successful growth personally and professionally.
