LPC Supervisor

*As of Summer 2022, I do not have any LPC Associate positions available. Please consider Carole at Authentic Balance or Allison at Selah Counseling.

Choosing a Licensed Professional Counselor Supervisor (LPC-S) should be taken seriously. The Texas State Board of Examiners of Professional Counselors sets forth strict rules and regulations that must be adhered to. Interview your potential LPC-S carefully, always refer to the LPC Rules when in doubt, and keep good records.
I have practiced in a variety of settings including Cook Children's Medical Center, Corphealth Managed Care (mental health insurance company), Aegon-Transamerica Long-term Care Insurance company, and currently work as an Intake and Assessment clinician in the Emergency Department at Baylor All Saints Hospital downtown Fort Worth.
In addition to direct client care, I serve as an adjunct professor teaching graduate level courses.
My private office is located at 1810 8th Ave., Ste. B204 (2nd floor), Fort Worth, Texas 76110
