ARE YOU A LPC ASSOCIATE LOOKING FOR A SUPERVISOR?

Finding the right fit is of utmost importance. Supervision is a relationship that lasts at least 18 months, though usually closer to 2 years. This time is set aside to develop your clinical knowledge, skills, and personal confidence through sustained support from your chosen Supervisor. To help start our conversation, here’s a snapshot of what supervision is like with Kimberley and what she brings to the work. She’d love to hear more about you, your goals, and your vision.

ABOUT KIMBERLEY AND HER PRACTICE AS A LPC SUPERVISOR

I provide supervision to provisionally licensed therapists fulfilling Texas State Board requirements for their LPC license. Ideal candidates are attachment and trauma-focused, work with adults and couples, creative thinkers, motivated self-starters, and those interested in learning how to build a private practice.

I have worked with grief and trauma for over a 12 years and have been a supervisor going on 9 years. My areas of focus include grief and loss, adoption, developmental trauma and Complex PTSD, shame, non-traditional relationships, and relationships in crisis. I am an adoptee and specialize in working with adults of adoption and the lifelong search for identity. I am a sex-positive, LGBTQI+ ally, all-inclusive therapist and honor both traditional and non-traditional relationships.

TRAINING: I have trained in NARM, Attachment Theory, IPNB (Interpersonal Neurobiology), Somatic Experiencing, EMDR, and Level I&II of Gottman and draw from both IFS, applied improv (yup). I have a Master's in counseling from St. Edwards University, is a certified NARM Therapist, and gained my supervisor training with Wingspan in 2016.

BACKGROUND: My therapeutic career started as a grief therapist for Austin’s Center for Grief and Loss and led groups at Paladin, a dual diagnosis outpatient treatment center. I have a thriving private practice in south Austin and founded Resilience Austin in 2019.

Though now I couldn't imagine being anything else, I haven't always been a therapist. I started with Bachelors in photography and design. In the corporate world, I’ve worked as a graphic and UI designer, freelance consultant, and a creative director for a small business consultation agency. Personally, I’m part of the Austin acting community, a talented photographer, a dog momma (they may even join us for supervision), and I created a slightly quirky, slightly tender, card game to help adults talk about death.

I’ve learned I am happiest when I am creating - right now I am developing two in-depth workshops - one on the lasting impact of adoption and one for therapists to deepen their skills to sit with grief and death.

I value the variety of experiences and backgrounds that people bring with them and strives to provide a supportive environment that encourages both inquiry and mastery. Committed to continuous growth, I regularly attend trainings and actively seek out diverse perspectives and experiences. I will encourage you to do the same.

I view my role as

  • a teacher serving as a sounding board and guide for clinical and ethical issues that arise in therapy. I am invested supporting you as you become a confident, flexible, grounded and respected clinician.

  • a mentor tending to the personal aspects of becoming a therapist, identifying and supporting your areas of growth and self care.

  • a consultant offering educate and help navigate the business aspects needed to manifest your vision towards a full licensed therapist. Having built my business from the ground up and having worked in the corporate world, I offers practical guidance as to the ins and outs of the skills and fortitude needed to be a successful and ethical business owner.
