Reflective Supervision for Professional Growth

Whether you’re preparing for licensure, refining your clinical approach, or seeking mentorship in complex cases, our dedicated supervisors are here to support, challenge, and inspire you every step of the way.
Supervison Types
Individual Supervision
Provides social workers with personalized, one-on-one guidance tailored to their clinical development. This space focuses on developing strong clinical judgment, deepening therapeutic skills, enhancing documentation practices, and supporting the formation of a professional identity. Supervisees receive focused feedback, case discussion, and support navigating ethical dilemmas, countertransference, and workplace challenges. Ideal for social workers seeking DC or VA licensure and for those wanting a highly individualized supervision experience.
Individual Supervision — $120/hr
Group Supervision
Group supervision is a collaborative, community-based environment where supervisees can learn from shared experiences. This format includes case consultations, skill-building exercises, role-plays, and guided discussions on clinical themes. Group members benefit from peer perspectives, increased confidence, and exposure to diverse approaches.
Group Supervision — $90/person
Consultation for Licensed Clinicians
Consultation services are designed to support independently licensed clinicians (LICSW/LCSW) who need ongoing guidance, a clinical sounding board, or specialized support around complex cases, ethical decision-making, trauma-informed care, and multicultural practice.
Occasional Consultation:
$100 per 1-hour session
Ideal for clinicians who need periodic guidance around complex cases, ethical considerations, private-practice decisions, or identity-aware clinical dilemmas. Perfect for one-time or as-needed support.
Ongoing Consultation:
$90 per 1-hour session
For clinicians seeking regular, continuous consultation to deepen their clinical confidence, refine therapeutic approaches, receive consistent case support, or build sustainable private-practice frameworks. Applies to weekly or biweekly standing sessions.
Exam Prep: Graduate & Clinical
Exam prep services help emerging and practicing social workers build confidence and mastery in preparing for graduate exams or the ASWB clinical exam. This includes structured study support, content review, test-taking strategies, and personalized coaching based on learning style. Supervisees learn how to break down questions, avoid common pitfalls, and strengthen critical thinking skills. The focus is on reducing anxiety, increasing readiness, and supporting long-term professional success. You will receive 3 hours of online sessions per month for 3 months for additional guidance and support as you progress through the course.
Exam prep: $320/monthly
Our Supervisors
RaShonda Riley, LICSW, LCSW
As an LGSW/LMSW working full-time, you will typically meet with me for 4 hours each month, entirely online via Zoom. You can complete all supervision hours remotely while living anywhere.
I offer clinical supervision to social workers seeking licensure in DC and Virginia (board-approved). My foundations of supervision are grounded in trauma-informed, anti-oppressive, and culturally responsive frameworks. My approach supports early-career clinicians in cultivating clinical confidence, navigating complex cases, and reflecting on identity in the therapeutic relationship. As a Black woman therapist, educator, and small business owner, I also hold space for the intersections of professional development and personal well-being. I aim to provide quality, affordable, and convenient social work supervision
Washington D.C. - LICSW
Social workers who are completing clinical licensure in Washington, D.C. will need to accrue hours towards their Licensed Independent Clinical Social Work (LICSW) license.
They must complete 3,000 hours of post-graduate work diagnosing and treating people with mental health issues.
This experience must be completed in two (2) to four (4) years from receiving your LGSW license.
At least one (1) hour must be supervised for every 32 hours of work.
Your supervisor must be an LISW or LICSW, and if your supervisor practices at a different site from where you work, you must have a contract of supervision in place and keep documentation of supervisory sessions with dates, duration, and focus of supervision.
When your hours are complete, fill out the D.C. Board of Social Work state application. Be sure to:
Pay the $230 application fee
Submit two (2) passport photos with your name and social security number on the back
Include three (3) character references (at least 2 must be professional)
Complete the Verification of Supervision On-Site form, or the Verification of Supervision Off-Site form, depending on the location of your supervisor.
Path to Licensure: DC and Virginia Supervision
Virginia-LCSW
First thing you’ll need to do is create an online account with the Virginia Board of Social Work and submit an Application for Supervision. Do this BEFORE you begin your work hours. To get started, click here.
As part of this process, you must include a proposed supervisor and location in the application.
Supervisors must have an active LCSW in Virginia with at least two years of post-licensure clinical social work experience. They must also have professional training in supervision, consisting of a three (3) credit-hour graduate course in supervision or at least 14 hours of continuing education offered by a provider approved under 18VAC140-20-105. This training must be completed within five years prior to the submission of the registration of supervision application to the Virginia Board of Social Work.
Once your account and application are approved? Now you can start accruing those hours to submit to the Virginia Social Board of Social Work. To earn your Virginia social work license, you must complete a minimum of 3,000 hours of post-MSW supervised clinical social work services.
You must also meet with your supervisor for 1-4 hours per week for a total of 100 hours of individual face-to-face supervision (Note that you may obtain group supervision, but only 50 of the 100 hours can be counted).
Also meet with clients face-to-face for minimum of 1,380 hours while providing clinical social work services.
And lastly you must complete your supervision in 2-4 consecutive years.
Once you believe that your supervision experience is complete, you will need to complete and submit the online LCSW by Examination application, application fee, Verification of Clinical Supervision form completed by your supervisor(s), and a current report from the U.S. Department of Health and Human Services National Practitioners Data Bank (NPDB).
