MaMHCA maintains a directory of individuals who have completed the MaMHCA Clinical Supervision Certification Training. These individuals are not only accomplished practitioners but also have had ab organized, fundamental training program designed to train/supervise new clinicians and providing clinical oversight consistent with all Massachusetts specific laws and regulations. The Supervisors on this list meet or exceed the 262 CRM regulation requirements for an Approved Supervisor.
There are multiple reasons to seek out contract/approved supervision:
Primarily, if your training site does not have an eligible Approved Supervisor as defined in the CMR-262 Section 2, you need to seek outside supervision by an LMHC. This is what is known as a contract supervisor
Additionally, if you are Post-Masters and your work site does not provide supervision that satisfies supervision requirements for achieving full licensure
If you have not received the required 75 hours of Supervision by an LMHC
If you want focused supervision in a specialty, or you are seeking postgraduate certification in a specialty area that requires specified supervision hours
If you have your full license but want continued support in your practice
If you want a fresh set of eyes to review your work
