You Deserve More Than Just Signing Off Hours

Starting your counseling career is exciting—and overwhelming.

You’re managing real clients, real emotions, real uncertainty. You need a supervisor who’s not just checking boxes—but actually helping you grow into the therapist you’re meant to be.

At CLS Counseling & Consulting, we offer clinical supervision that’s supportive, structured, identity-affirming, and grounded in real-world practice.

This is supervision built on conversation, collaboration, and confidence-building—not criticism or outdated rules.
