Mentorship & Supervision
Ready for some support?
There are thousands of questions wellness professionals have to answer when they want to begin or super-charge their private practice. Unfortunately, when you begin to build a business around your gifts, there is rarely direction or support in the practical elements of working as a private practitioner, especially if your field is un-regulated or outside mainstream health solutions. Our solution to this inevitable hurdle are Spiritual Mentorship and Clinical Supervision.
Spiritual Mentorship
Based on the apprenticeship model of ancient wisdom traditions, Spiritual Mentorship is available to therapists, healers, coaches, and other health and wellness practitioners who want to incorporate spiritual principles and personal intuition into their professional practice. Customized sessions allow practitioners to remove existing internal blocks and bypass cultural conditioning to allow information to move more freely between healer and client. Led by Dragonfly Wellness' Master Trainer, these 60-minute sessions elevate your practice, giving you access to principles and tools that will transform the way you work with clients.
Clinical Supervision
A professional and ethical obligation in the field of mental health, Clinical Supervision has been developed to both protect the public and encourage professional growth and accountability. Therapists will be guided through clinical conundrums and professional blocks while being supported to develop their unique therapeutic voice. Offering both Individual and Group Sessions, our Clinical Director leads these engaging, interactive, and educational sessions that provide customized input on cases, help manage counter-transference issues, and provide a caring and collegial environment for professional and personal growth.
What is Mentorship and Supervision?
How do you manage work/life balance when you are so passionate about what you do? What do you need to know to run your own business? How do you attract and retain clients? What do you do if your files are subpoenaed? Who do you turn to when your client is in crisis? What should your website look like? How often should you be checking email? How do you support difficult clients? Where does your own cultural background, personal development, and spirituality fit in to your work with others on a growth journey?
Working as a therapist, healer, or coach can be such fulfilling work. Unfortunately, professional support and accountabilty is not always available for those committed to continue their personal growth while expanding their practices. Most people drawn into the helping professions are not business people, but it takes a certain mindset to translate your new skills and knowledge into creating meaningful work for yourself that can generate sufficient income. It can be a game-changer to access the guidance and experience of a more seasoned professional, but this connection often takes years to develop. Spiritual Mentorship and Clinical Supervision allows you to formalize your connection to a successful and seasoned practitioner, get professional oversight and support with your caseload, and connect with other wellness professionals who are navigating the same path.

The next steps...
Spiritual Mentorship
At this time, Spiritual Mentorship is by invitation only. However, if you are really called to explore this modality, book your free consultation with Texas to discuss next steps.
Clinical Supervision - Group
Once you decide you want to join our community of therapists, you will simply register for the next group. You will be emailed a Questionnaire to ensure you are a good fit with our group. Upon review of the Questionnaire, we will send you a Supervision Agreement Form that highlights the Clinical Supervisor's theoretical training and approach, required prep work, and expectations of therapists during supervision meetings. A link for the meeting will be sent the day before. Please review our no-show/cancellation policy in the intake forms.
Clinical Supervision - Individual
Book in your first Clinical Supervision Session here. Once you have booked, you will be emailed a Questionnaire to understand your goals for supervision. Upon review of the Questionnaire, we will send you a Supervision Agreement Form that highlights the Clinical Supervisor's theoretical training and approach and required prep work. A link for the meeting will be sent an hour before the session. Please review our no-show/cancellation policy in the intake forms.
NOTE: In order to ensure each and every therapist is well-supported, we only take a very limited number of new therapists each year, and registration for supervision sessions is on a first come, first serve basis.
