What a Supervision Session Looks Like
Sessions are collaborative, not one-directional. You’ll bring active cases to discuss, and Julie helps you work through case conceptualization, intervention choices, and the ethical and practical questions that come up in real practice — all while keeping CRPO guidelines and your specific learning goals in view.
Meeting frequency is tailored to your needs and required supervision hours, and sessions are available both virtually (via Jane) and in person in Mississauga, so scheduling can fit around a busy caseload. Many supervisees also appreciate having a consistent space each week to process the emotional weight of clinical work itself, not just the technical side of case management, since sustainable, ethical practice depends on both.
Why Choose Julie for Your Clinical Supervision?
To further support your development, Julie creates a collaborative learning environment. She focuses on your specific goals, whether you are building a foundation in CBT, integrating mindfulness, or navigating complex client relationships. Therefore, you can expect guidance that is both practical and empowering, helping you become a more confident and competent therapist.
Why Quality Supervision Matters
Clinical supervision is not just a licensing requirement to check off — it shapes the kind of therapist you become. Research on clinical supervision consistently links strong supervisory relationships to better case conceptualization, more consistent use of evidence-based techniques, and greater confidence navigating difficult client situations, particularly around risk, dual relationships, and complex diagnostic presentations.
For students and Qualifying RPs in particular, this stage of training often sets the tone for how you practice for years afterward. Working with a supervisor who takes the relationship seriously, gives specific and actionable feedback, and holds space for the ethical grey areas of real clinical work makes a meaningful difference.
Julie brings over two decades of combined clinical and academic experience to this role, having supervised psychotherapists and students across CBT, DBT, and mindfulness-based approaches, working with clinicians at different stages of their careers, from practicum students to Qualifying RPs nearing full registration. Her goal is to help you build genuine clinical judgment, not just complete hours. This includes regular, honest feedback on your clinical work, support in thinking through countertransference and ethical dilemmas, and a genuinely collaborative relationship rather than a purely evaluative one.
Frequently Asked Questions
What are the CRPO's clinical supervision requirements?
The College of Registered Psychotherapists of Ontario (CRPO) requires Registered Psychotherapists (Qualifying) to complete a set number of supervised clinical hours before achieving full registration. Supervision must be provided by a qualified Registered Psychotherapist and follow CRPO's documented guidelines on frequency and case review. Requirements can change over time, so it is always worth confirming your specific hour count and documentation needs directly with the CRPO alongside working with your supervisor.
How often are supervision sessions held?
Meeting frequency is tailored to your specific learning needs and required hours, aligned with CRPO's supervision guidelines. Some supervisees meet weekly, others biweekly or monthly depending on their stage of practice and caseload.
Is clinical supervision available virtually?
Yes. Sessions are available securely online via Jane across Ontario, as well as in person in Mississauga, so you can choose whichever format fits your schedule. Many supervisees find a hybrid approach works well, meeting virtually most weeks and in person periodically.
Do you supervise practicum students as well as Qualifying RPs?
Yes. Prime Psychotherapy offers a comprehensive practicum experience for students, including client referrals, standard clinical supervision, and dedicated training sessions, in addition to a structured program for Registered Psychotherapists (Qualifying) working toward full CRPO registration.
What therapeutic approaches does the supervision focus on?
Supervision draws on Julie's clinical background in Cognitive Behavioural Therapy (CBT), Dialectical Behaviour Therapy (DBT), and Mindfulness-Based techniques, though sessions are shaped around your specific cases and professional goals rather than a fixed curriculum.
Will I receive documentation for the CRPO after completing my hours?
Yes. Upon successful completion of your required supervised hours, you will receive the official documentation needed for your CRPO registration, ready to submit as part of your application.
How do I get started with clinical supervision?
You can reach out to schedule an initial conversation to discuss your current stage of registration, supervision needs, and goals. From there, Julie will outline a proposed meeting frequency and format so you can decide together whether it is the right fit before committing to an ongoing arrangement, so you can be confident the working relationship suits your learning style and schedule.
Can supervision be combined with a practicum placement?
Yes. Prime Psychotherapy offers a comprehensive practicum experience that combines client referrals with structured clinical supervision and dedicated training sessions, giving students practical exposure alongside the guidance needed to develop core competencies before moving into independent or qualifying practice.
