Frequently Asked Questions
Are you qualified to offer supervision services?
Yes! Vannest Counseling uses PHD-level clinical counselors that have significant experience in supervising LPC candidates.
What is the structure of supervision, including the frequency and format of meetings?
You will attend four hours of supervision each month, which can consist of a single 4-hour session or spread out across several sessions. We offer four supervision classes each month, one in-person, and three more offered virtually. Classes typically include 4-10 participants plus the supervisor, which provides many opportunities for thoughtful dialog, learning, and expert feedback.
How much does supervision cost?
Participants spread out the cost of supervision into monthly payments of $100, which is a very affordable way to complete your 100 hours. If you consistently complete 4 hours a month, you will complete your required supervision hours in 25 months.
What is your supervision style and theoretical orientation?
Vannest Counseling uses a collegial style of supervision that offers participants mixed perspectives and rich feedback from a group of practice professionals already working in the field.
In which areas of counseling do you have supervision experience?
Dr. Jason Vannest has extensive experience both as a clinical field practitioner and also from working within a school counseling environment.
