Navigating Your Journey to LPC Licensure in Michigan: The Power of Supervision

In the state of Michigan, the path to becoming a fully Licensed Professional Counselor (LPC) for Limited Licensed Counselors (LLCs) involves a crucial step: the completion of 100 hours of supervised clinical experience within a two-year timeframe. This requirement underscores the importance of mentorship and guidance in shaping competent and ethical counseling professionals.

Recognizing the significance of this developmental phase, experienced supervisors like Larena offer invaluable support to LLCs. Her approach centers on individualized one-on-one supervision, providing a dedicated space for personalized guidance. This tailored support aims to nurture growth not only in clinical practice but also in the personal and professional spheres of the supervisee. Through focused attention and constructive feedback, Larena empowers LLCs to refine their skills, build confidence, and navigate the complexities of the counseling field.

Complementing this individual support, group supervision offers a unique and enriching learning environment for Michigan LLCs. These monthly gatherings, typically comprising no more than five LLCs and guided by a qualified supervisor, foster a sense of community and shared learning. Group supervision provides a platform to explore diverse perspectives, learn from the experiences of peers, and engage in collaborative problem-solving. This dynamic interaction broadens understanding, reinforces ethical considerations, and contributes to a well-rounded professional development journey for aspiring LPCs in Michigan.
