MaMHCA is excited to recognize our next Supervisor of the Month: Meg Connor, LMHC (MA), LCMHC (NH), MaCCS, MAMHCA Counselor Educator of the Year, 2022, Integrative Mental Health Practitioner

"Hi- I love supporting counselors interested in an integrative mind-body approach. In addition to clinical practice with trauma survivors and couples, I've taught graduate counseling students for almost 25 years and have supervised and trained counselors and supervisors for the last dozen years.

My work is informed by my years as a yoga teacher and as well as EMDR and Energy Psychology. I tailor supervision sessions to your needs, implementing elements of several approaches, including Person-Centered, Trauma-informed, Cognitive Behavioral, Family Systems, Multicultural, Feminist, Mindfulness-based and Mind-Body Integrative Approaches. We concentrate on professional development and ethical decision-making. I also make sure we include humor and self-care in the mix because.. who doesn't need that?!"

MaMHCA is excited to recognize our next Supervisor of the Month: Marissa Cashman- LMHC, MaACCS, LPC, CPC, LCMHC, LMHC

Over 11 years of trauma-based work including adoption, racism/bigotry harm, grief and loss, single event trauma, childhood abuse and neglect, and complex trauma with IFS and EMDR training with cultural diversity experience have shaped my clinical experience. I have worked with BIPOC and LGBTQIA+ community members since the start of my clinical career.

My supervision approach can
-Provide a warm and supportive space to cultivate therapeutic understanding including case conceptualization
-Help develop innate clinical strengths while fostering space to learn and further build upon new clinical skills
-Guide and navigate complex cases through a trauma-informed lens
-Help gain self-advocacy and collaboration skills with other entities including prescribers and schools
-Establish an understanding of how systemic/racial/generational dynamics affect a client’s case

Supervision through my practice focuses on working with: Post-masters/Pre-licensed LMHC track providers for Contracted supervision, Licensed providers who are in the midst of a career change and setting up a private practice (School Adjustment Counselor/DCF to private practice, for example), or Licensed providers simply looking for support with more complex cases who may be experiencing imposter syndrome or feeling stigma/shame in asking for support.

Approaches used feature a cultural competence/spiritual and religious/anti-systemic oppression lens with a decolonization approach which helps supervisees understand the many layers that can shape and affect their cases and the mental health field as a whole. An understanding of current national and world events is also utilized in helping guide supervisees during times of uncertainty which can heighten burnout and/or compassion fatigue.

If my approach seems like it would be a good fit for you, please feel free to reach out to me with any questions! You deserve to have the right support as you help others heal.
