Clinical Supervision for Idaho Counselors
I've been a registered clinical supervisor in Idaho since 2015, working with counseling students and associate-level counselors building toward full licensure. Supervision sessions cover clinical skill-building, ethics, and real-world case consultation, grounded and practical, not theoretical. If you're working toward licensure in Idaho and want a supervisor who teaches clearly and holds high clinical standards, reach out to learn more!
How It Works…
1:1 by secure video. You can meet with me from anywhere in Idaho. All supervision is individual, which fully meets Idaho’s requirement that at least half your supervision hours be individual. I don’t offer group supervision.
Who it’s for. Licensed Professional Counselors (LPCs) working toward their LCPC in Idaho. I’m a Board-approved supervisor and LCPC, supervising in Idaho since 2015.
Monthly subscription. The full plan is $350 a month for up to four 1:1 meetings, plus consultation between sessions. The half-time plan is $175 a month for up to two meetings. Extra meetings are $92 each, and unused meetings don’t roll over.
Which plan fits. Idaho requires one hour of supervision for every 30 hours of direct client contact. If you see 60 or fewer clients a month, the half-time plan likely covers you. Full-time caseloads usually fit the full plan.
What you’re paying for. Your subscription makes me your supervisor of record. Beyond meetings, that includes reviewing your hours, tracking your progress toward licensure, being available for clinical and ethical questions, and signing off on your LCPC application once you’ve met the requirements.
Payment. Paid monthly, in advance, through a private PayPal subscription link.
Standing meeting time. We’ll set a regular time when you start, so supervision stays consistent and your hours stay on track.
Tracking hours. You’ll keep a shared spreadsheet of your direct client contact hours, with no client information, so I can review your progress toward the 2,000 hours required for your LCPC.
Idaho LCPC Supervision Rules at a Glance
Here’s what Idaho requires for your LCPC under IDAPA 24.15.01:
Hours: 2,000 hours of supervised direct client contact after your LPC.
Ratio: at least 1 hour of clinical supervision for every 30 hours of direct client contact.
Individual supervision: at least half of your supervision hours. Idaho defines individual supervision as one supervisor with no more than two supervisees.
Who supervises: at least 1,000 of your hours must be supervised by a licensed LCPC.
Exam: the National Clinical Mental Health Counseling Examination (NCMHCE), administered by NBCC.
Supervisor qualifications: Board-approved supervisors are LCPCs or LMFTs who have completed at least 15 contact hours of supervisor training and have no discipline in the past five years.
Rules change, so always confirm current requirements with the Idaho Division of Occupational and Professional Licenses (DOPL).
Your Path from LPC to LCPC, Step by Step
Line up an approved supervisor before you start counting hours.
Set a standing supervision time so you stay at or above the 1:30 ratio.
Track your direct client contact hours as you go, not at the end.
Prepare for and pass the NCMHCE.
Apply through DOPL with your verified hours and your supervisor’s sign-off.
Most full-time LPCs reach 2,000 direct hours in about two years. Part-time caseloads take longer, and that’s normal.
Switching Supervisors
Changing supervisors partway through is common and doesn’t erase your progress. Bring your hour log and your previous supervisor’s contact information. We’ll confirm where you stand, set a standing meeting time, and keep going.
Why Your Supervisor’s License Matters
Not every supervisor can take you all the way to your LCPC. Idaho requires at least 1,000 of your 2,000 hours to be supervised by a licensed LCPC, and as of July 1, 2026, LPCs can no longer be approved as supervisors. If your current supervisor isn’t an LCPC, check that your hours will still count. I’m an LCPC and a Board-approved supervisor, supervising in Idaho since 2015, so all of your hours with me count toward that requirement.

Supervision Anywhere in Idaho
Supervision is by secure video, so geography isn’t a barrier. I supervise LPCs in Boise, Meridian, Nampa, and across the Treasure Valley, plus Idaho Falls, Pocatello, Twin Falls, Coeur d’Alene, and rural communities where finding a qualified LCPC supervisor can be hard. I completed my counseling degree at Idaho State University and know the East Idaho counseling community well. If you’re in the Boise area, my office is in the Americana Building near Ann Morrison Park.
Still in a graduate program? Check with your program to confirm that video supervision is acceptable for your degree, and visit my page for counseling student mentorship and supervision.
Got Questions?
Let’s Clear Things Up.
-
Supervision with me is person-centered, strengths-based, and practical. We’ll cover clinical skill-building, ethics, documentation, and real-world case consultation, and I’ll support your growth both personally and professionally. Sessions are 1:1 by video, so you can work with me from Boise, Meridian, Idaho Falls, or anywhere in Idaho.
-
If you’re a licensed counselor in Idaho working toward clinical licensure and want a supervisor who teaches clearly, holds high clinical standards, and has a sense of humor, we’re likely a good fit. My political views are mixed and I firmly believe the counseling space should never be used to press a political agenda onto clients. If you want to focus on healing and not lobbying, we’re likely on the same page! I’ve been a registered clinical supervisor in Idaho since 2015 and teach counseling ethics and test-taking. Many supervisees work with me to supplement the support they’re getting at their agency or practice, and improve their preparation for ethics exams.
-
Yes. I can help you prepare for the NCMHCE and the Idaho jurisprudence exam, understand the requirements of the Idaho Board of Professional Counselors and Marriage and Family Therapists, and stay organized with your hours and documentation. The goal is to make your path to clinical licensure in Idaho as clear and manageable as possible.
-
My background is in academic advising, and my college had the best counseling program around. I was interested in human development and existentialism, which aligned perfectly with studying counseling. I worked 1:1 with my faculty advisor who was also Dean of undergraduate students at ISU, and from him I learned about how adults learn and the core of leadership. I’ve became a registered supervisor in Idaho only two years after obtaining the LPC. I’m also licensed in Texas and California, and excel at teaching ethics for counselors and exam prep.
-
Yes. Supervision is a confidential space to talk honestly about your growth and your cases. Client information is discussed in de-identified ways and handled according to HIPAA and the ACA Code of Ethics. As in any counseling relationship, there are limits, such as a serious risk of harm, suspected abuse, or client welfare concerns that require action. I’ll always be clear with you about what is shared and why.
-
Your $350 monthly subscription makes me your supervisor of record. That includes ongoing oversight of your supervised hours, up to four 1:1 supervision meetings each month, availability for consultation when something comes up between sessions, and my signature on your LCPC application when you’ve met your requirements.
-
Not exactly. Your subscription covers my ongoing role as your supervisor, not just time in meetings. Meetings are one part of that role. Behind the scenes, I’m reviewing your hours, tracking your progress toward licensure, and staying available for clinical and ethical questions.
-
When you start, we’ll set up a standing meeting time that works for both of us. Having a regular slot on the calendar keeps supervision consistent and makes it easy to stay on track with your hours.
-
All supervision is 1:1 via secure video. I don’t offer group supervision.
-
Unused meetings don’t roll over to the next month. Since your subscription covers ongoing supervision and oversight, not a bank of hours, each month starts fresh. A standing meeting time is the best way to make sure you get full use of what’s included.
-
Additional meetings are available for $92 each.
-
Heck yes. If you’re not seeing enough clients yet to need four meetings a month, you can switch to a half-time subscription for $175 a month. That includes up to two 1:1 meetings a month, along with ongoing oversight of your hours and my availability for consultation. When your caseload grows, you can move back to the full subscription.
-
Payment is made monthly, in advance, through PayPal using the private subscription link I’ll send you.
-
You’ll keep a shared spreadsheet logging your direct client contact hours. I’ll have access so I can review your progress and make sure your supervision stays in line with Idaho’s requirements. No client information goes in the spreadsheet.
-
Yes. When we start, I’ll need contact information for your on-site supervisor (and your faculty contacts if you’re a student), and I stay in contact with them throughout your supervision.
-
You’ll need 2,000 hours of supervised direct client contact after your LPC, with at least 1 hour of supervision for every 30 direct hours. At least half of your supervision must be individual, and at least 1,000 of your hours must be supervised by a licensed LCPC.
-
I provide all supervision by secure video, so you can meet with me from anywhere in Idaho. If you’re still in a graduate program, check with your program to confirm that video supervision is acceptable for your degree. For post-graduate LCPC hours, you can always confirm current requirements with DOPL.
-
As of July 1, 2026, LPCs can no longer be approved as supervisors in Idaho, and at least 1,000 of your LCPC hours must be supervised by a licensed LCPC. If your current supervisor is an LPC, check with DOPL about how your hours will count.
-
Most full-time LPCs reach 2,000 direct client contact hours in about two years. Part-time caseloads take longer, and that’s normal. Consistent supervision and tracking your hours as you go keep the process moving.
-
The LPC is your first counseling license in Idaho, earned after graduate school, the NCE, and 1,000 supervised hours. The LCPC is Idaho’s clinical-level counseling license, earned after 2,000 supervised direct client contact hours and passing the NCMHCE. The LCPC is also the license required to become a Board-approved supervisor for other counselors.
-
No. Idaho requires at least half of your supervision to be individual, so all-individual supervision fully meets the requirement. All of my supervision is 1:1.
