Licensure Supervision
Charline Bengtson, LMFT & owner of North Country Counseling is a board approved supervisor for those seeking licensure as an LMFT, LPC, LPCC in the state of Minnesota. Charline is also a board approved supervisor for those seeking licensing as an LMFT, LPC, and LPC-MH. I am 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! I get it and I am honored to walk through all levels of development with you.
If you are a student looking for a place to complete your practicum hours, North Country Counseling has a place for you. If you are on a pre-licensure track seeking to complete your hours toward licensure and fine-tune the skills you have been learning, it would be a great privilege to walk with you through this part of your journey leading to us being colleagues.
