Selecting a clinical supervisor is an important decision in your journey toward full licensure. While cost is certainly something to consider, it shouldn’t be the only factor guiding your choice.
Your supervisor plays a significant role in shaping your professional development. When choosing a supervisor, consider their background, experience, and reputation. Are they ethical? Organized? Timely with documentation and feedback? Do they stay informed about changes to board rules and requirements? Are they knowledgeable enough to guide you through the licensure process and assist when it’s time to submit your board application?
A good supervisor doesn’t just sign paperwork—they mentor, support, and help strengthen your clinical skills as you grow into your professional identity.
Supervision is an investment in your future as a clinician. And as cliché as it may sound, you often get what you pay for.
Choose wisely. Your career deserves it.
