“regular, protected time for facilitated, in-depth reflection on practice”
I provide clinical supervision to provisional psychologists seeking to strengthen case conceptualization, clinical decision-making, and confidence in independent practice.
“What You’ll Develop”
Clinical Skills
Intervention selection
Case formulation
Working with anxiety, stress, depression, relationships
structure of sessions (you will present one or more of your current cases for discussion)
“Before opening Anton Counseling & Health Psychology, I functioned as a counselor for many years, learning behavioral approaches. As a university student, I embraced both existential and client-centered approaches. I emersed myself in pain management for several years during my time as a provisional psychologist. And in 2003, my practice began with training and a particular interest in leadership coaching.
Therapy is about Iterations, not fixing
This Supervision is a Strong Fit If You:
Value curiosity, reflection, and intellectual rigor
Feel uncertain in complex clinical moments
Want to sharpen your clinical judgment (not just techniques)
Overthink sessions after the fact
Want depth—not just checklist supervision
Not a fit:
those wanting purely checklist-based supervision
minimal engagement / passive learning
Supervision Specifics
Years supervising – since 2012
number/type of supervisees – 12 males and female therapists
familiarity with regulatory requirements (Alberta College)
supervision training/framework – contextual model
My Supervision Process Structure
“Supervision focuses on helping you think clearly in complex clinical situations—not just apply techniques.”
1. Clinical Judgment Over Protocol
When to follow structure vs depart from it
2. Thinking, Not Just Doing
What’s happening in the room?
What are you perceiving vs assuming?
3. Emotional & Cognitive Integration
Your reactions are data, not problems
4. Precision in Language & Formulation
How you describe a client shapes how you treat them
Cultivate gentleness, kindness, honesty, and a compassionate sense of humor; bring these essential values to your sessions. Both you and your client can truly flourish in such a nurturing space. Open communication and collaborative dialogue are crucial. They are foundational to the healing process of therapy and supervision.
Psychological Space
“support in developing clear case formulations, treatment direction, & self-confidence”
