FL DOH Qualified Supervision for Registered Clinical Social Work Interns
Offered by Winter Collins, LCSW and Rebecca Whittle, LCSW
For those seeking a career in the mental health field, licensure is a critical step requiring face-to-face client hours as well as supervision hours during the internship phase. An experienced and qualified supervisor can help you navigate the road toward licensure completion while providing support for the professional growth needed to develop your own personal counseling style.
The Ideal Candidate
The ideal candidate is an excellent LCSW, LMHC, LMFT, or Registered Intern who is passionate about helping others, experienced in working with individuals and families, and wants the flexibility and rewards of working from home in a private practice without the stress of startup, marketing, and administrative costs.
- You are well trained. You come from an accredited graduate program, are committed to continuing education and have excellent references.
- You are committed to your own personal growth and doing your inner work – inside and outside of this position. This includes understanding how your personal experiences, biases, cultural conditioning, and (if applicable) privilege have impacted and shaped you and how you show up.
- You’re confident. You’re not only confident in your worth as a human, but you’re also confident in your skillset as a mental health therapist.
- You’re humble. You recognize that feedback is important for growth and you don’t take it personally. You take what serves you and leave what doesn’t fit. You recognize that everyone has something to teach you and you don’t have an ego or shame about asking for help or guidance.
- You’re an A-player and a team player. As an A-player, you show up excited to learn, serve, and grow every day because you are part of something in service to others. You take responsibility to get it done well, whether anyone is watching you or not. As a team-player, you are thrilled to work alongside other A-players on our team dedicated to the mission of helping individuals and families thrive in their own unique environments.
- You show integrity. You must have absolute integrity, honesty and transparency and be willing to protect both our Intellectual Property and our clients’ confidentiality. You follow-through by keeping your word and doing what you say you’ll do, when you say you will do it. If you need to break an agreement, you address it proactively and clean it up with us rather than hoping it will go unnoticed.
- You are organized. You have a system to keep yourself organized and accountable and do not require micro-managing or constant follow-up after a task has been delegated to you. You set deadlines for yourself with reminders to ensure they are met. You use a calendar and have systems that already work for you.
- You want to stay long-term. If you are trying to create an income while you build your own private practice or want to use this as a building block to creating your own practice, this is not a fit. We really want someone who desires to be a dedicated part of our growing company at least for the next several years.
