Supervising the Supervisor

$125 USD per hour

Serving as a supervisor is challenging. Were you trained to be a supervisor? If not, would you benefit from training? If you were, do you feel you need refresher training so you can optimally reach your supervisees and have a sense of your own journey as a supervisor? I have been interested in and studying the possible developmental phases that supervisees and supervisors go through and how recognition of these phases could effect your journey as a supervisor. Let’s touch base to see if I can be of help to you as a supervisor.

Clinical Supervision for Creative Arts Therapists, Special Educators, Counselors

$125 USD per hour

I have supervised students ( undergraduate and graduate programs) and professionals in both music therapy and related therapies for over 40 years and have a special interest in developmental stages in supervision using not only verbal process but also the arts. . I aim to be sensitive to your needs in clinical supervision so your work engages you and helps you and your clients grow. Supervision includes, as necessary, the following: intake to assess your needs, review of relevant documents, review of video footage as necessary, review of appropriate music therapy planning, intervention and evaluation and process oriented discussion of client/therapist interaction. As an LCAT since 2006, I am a qualified provider to supervisor candidates for the License in Creative Arts Therapy* in the State of New York. Depending on your field, you may be eligible to gain continuing education credits for your supervision.

Literary Support for Authors

$125 per hour

Do you want to publish but you are stuck in your writing? I would love to support you. Many students and professionals feel stuck in their writing. There are many considerations some of which include: the 'voice' of the writing, the architecture of the writing piece , the process (i.e., pace, starts and stops, moving between research, analysis and actual writing), the use of language and comfort with syntax, grammar and choice of words. When English is not your first language, these elements of writing can be even more challenging.

I have published an original assessment tool, MTA-ED, Music Therapy Assessment Tool for Emotionally Disturbed Children (Goodman, 1989; Goodman, 2007) which is discussed on the I.M.T.A.C website (https://www.communication.aau.dk/research/music-therapy-research/imtac).
