Supervision

Services

An intake consultation is a 15 minute meeting designed to assess the music therapist’s supervision needs, goals, and clinical context. During this session, the supervisor gathers background information about the therapist’s training, work setting, client populations, and current challenges. It also provides an opportunity to discuss supervision expectations, establish focus areas, clarify roles and boundaries, and determine whether the supervisory relationship is a good fit.

Clinical Supervision for Early Career Music Therapists

Supervision is designed to support newly credentialed and early-career music therapists (less than 5 years experience) as they navigate the transition from student to professional. Sessions focus on clinical skill development, self-awareness, and alignment with best practices and the CBMT Code of Ethics. Supervision sessions may count toward continuing education or professional development hours but are not intended to replace formal academic or internship supervision.

Mentorship for Seasoned Music Therapy Professionals

Mentorship is designed for established music therapists (5 or more years of experience) who are seeking renewed inspiration and professional clarity. Sessions focus on growth beyond technique — creativity, balance, authenticity, and the alignment of your professional work with your personal values. This is not supervision or evaluation — it is a partnership grounded in experience, respect, and shared curiosity for what’s next in your professional journey.

Advanced Supervision for those providing supervision to others

Advanced Supervision is designed for music therapists who supervise music therapy practicum students, music therapy interns or other music therapists. The focus is on developing competence in the supervisory role itself, rather than solely on direct clinical work. At its core, supervision for supervisors helps music therapists move from being effective clinicians to being intentional, ethical, reflective, and developmentally responsive leaders who can foster the growth of others in the profession.

Monthly Guided Supervision Circles for therapists seeking guidance on specific topics

Guided supervision circles are small, supportive groups where music therapists come together to reflect on monthly themed discussions including, but not limited to clinical work, professional skills, and strengthen self-awareness through dialogue in a safe, respectful, and growth-oriented environment. Participants can share experiences and receive feedback to gain new perspectives on their practice. All levels of experience are welcome.
