Case Consulting & Supervision
If you are a therapist working with a client in crisis, particularly one at risk of suicide or harming others, New Mexico Crisis Counseling offers confidential case consultation services that can provide valuable support for both you and your client.
We understand the immense responsibility therapists carry, especially when faced with complex clinical situations. Our case consultations provide a safe space for you to discuss challenging cases and receive expert guidance from Gayle Porter, LPCC, a highly experienced crisis counselor. We offer two primary types of case consultation services to meet your specific needs:
Urgent Clinical Case Consultation: Ideal for urgent situations involving clients at high risk of suicide or harming others. This service provides immediate support for clinical decision-making, including navigating confidentiality concerns. It often includes additional unscheduled phone consultations and guidance for clinical documentation at no extra charge.
Standard Clinical Case Consultation: Designed for less complex clinical issues that don’t require urgent intervention. This service allows you to explore treatment options and brainstorm solutions for a broader range of client challenges.
Follow-up Support Available
Follow-up sessions can assist with writing clinical documentation and planning ongoing treatment for your client after the initial crisis has passed. This session may also include reviewing your documentation.
Clinical Supervision
Our supervisors have successfully completed a Clinical Supervision Academy curriculum and maintain Approved Clinical Supervisor (ACS) certification or other advanced Clinical Supervisory Training. These professionals can help you assess your needs from clinical supervision and tailor your sessions to address your goals effectively.
Supervision For Non-Independently Licensed Clinicians
In addition to the above, you can expect regular, professional, and informed supervision that includes case conceptualization, clinical documentation training, documentation reviews, professional development, and approved supervision hours toward your independent license.
Supervision For Independently Licensed Clinicians
Independently licensed clinicians are not required to have regular clinical supervision to maintain their licensure. Even so, many top therapists choose to receive supervision to support ongoing development, consult on challenging cases, and access additional perspectives for their practice. Supervision or clinical consultation can occur on a regular schedule or on an as-needed basis.
Call (505) 225-2996 to schedule a consultation. We are committed to providing you with the support you need to help your clients effectively navigate crises and move towards a brighter future.
