Licensure Supervision

Dr. Brittany Hamann, LPCC is a board approved supervisor for LPC/LPCC candidates in the state of Minnesota. Our supervisors are inspired by working with developing therapists eager to learn the ins and outs of therapy, working with relationships, documentation, care coordination, theory, application, ethical care of clients, and self-of-the-therapist development. Learning to do the work we do in this world is anxiety provoking, overwhelming and rewarding! We get it and are honored to walk through all levels of development with you.
