In Texas, to become a Licensed Clinical Social Worker (LCSW), you must complete 3,000 hours of supervised experience, including 100 hours of face-to-face supervision. At least 50 hours must be with an LCSW-S (Supervisor). Supervision must occur over a minimum of 24 months. I'm an approved LCSW-S and can provide the supervision hours you need to meet these requirements.

Individual supervision provides one-on-one attention focused entirely on your cases, goals, and professional development. Group supervision allows you to learn from peers, gain diverse perspectives, and often comes at a lower cost. Both count toward your licensure hours. I offer both formats to fit your needs and schedule.

After our free consultation, we'll set up a schedule that works for both of us. Supervision is conducted virtually, so you can participate from anywhere in Texas. Sessions are typically weekly or bi-weekly depending on your needs and hours requirement timeline.

Come prepared with case notes, client updates, and any questions or challenges you'd like to discuss. The more you bring to supervision, the more you'll get out of it. I'll help guide you on documentation and processing your clinical work.

The minimum is 24 months, but the actual timeline depends on your schedule and how many hours you accumulate weekly. Most supervisees complete their hours within 2-3 years. We'll create a plan that fits your timeline and career goals.

Yes! I provide supervision for both LMSWs working toward their clinical hours and those seeking support for general social work practice. Whether you're just starting out or preparing for the LCSW exam, I can support your professional journey.

Life happens! I understand that scheduling conflicts arise. Please notify me at least 24 hours in advance when possible. We can reschedule within the month to keep your supervision hours on track.

The same 3,000 hours of supervised experience and 100 hours of face-to-face supervision are required regardless of whether you work full-time or part-time. The minimum hours of supervision for part-time (15 clinical hours a week) is 2-3. However, the timeline to complete those hours will naturally be longer if you're working fewer hours per week. The Texas State Board of Social Worker Examiners requires a minimum of 24 months, but part-time social workers typically complete licensure in 3-4 years. We'll develop a pacing plan that aligns with your schedule so you can stay on track without overwhelm.

Yes. Under Texas Administrative Code Rule §781.403, all Licensed Master Social Workers (LMSWs) practicing under supervision toward their LCSW are required to maintain professional liability insurance, unless covered by their employer's policy. This requirement is in place to protect both you and your clients during your clinical practice. If you are employed, verify with your employer that their liability coverage extends to your supervised clinical work. If you are in private practice or your employer does not provide coverage, you must obtain your own professional liability insurance policy. I recommend maintaining coverage regardless of your employment status for your own protection throughout the supervision process.
