Supervision for Drama Therapy

Students & Professionals

I am a Registered Drama Therapist and Board Certified Trainer who provides supervision for drama therapy students and professionals working towards their credentials. This includes the following:

  • Students on the Alternative Track training towards becoming an RDT
  • Drama therapists who have graduated and are earning hours towards the P-RDT or RDT credentials

Drama therapists who have credentials but would like guidance on strengthening their work can do clinical consultation instead since they do not require the same level of guidance.

About My Supervision Approach

I aim to be a warm, supportive supervisor so that supervisees feel safe sharing both celebrations and mistakes (or what I see as lessons) with me. I strive to help supervisees feel confident and capable in taking healthy risks with their work.

I value mutual trust, mutual respect, and honesty in the supervision relationship.

I enjoy working with supervisees who are curious, open, and passionate (especially about drama therapy!).

I incorporate creative arts into supervision sessions, as I think it’s important for us to process supervision matters in the modality that we work in. I also like to incorporate nature into sessions since it helps with connection, meaning, and other important aspects of our work.

I enjoy sharing education about various psychology and mental health topics, especially ones that I wish I had known about when I was a new drama therapist. 

I trained in Role Method at NYU’s master’s program but consider myself eclectic in my approach. I discovered drama therapy in my mid-teen years and have been extremely passionate (and nerdy!) about it since then.
