Frequently Asked Questions

What can I expect in therapy at Growth Explored

Therapy sessions provide a collaborative space to explore how past and present experiences shape your current patterns, relationships, and sense of safety. Sessions may include CBT, IFS, narrative therapy, somatic awareness, trauma-informed frameworks, and practices rooted in collective care. You guide the pace and depth of the work, and together we focus on building insight, regulation, and sustainable change.

Do you offer virtual and in-person sessions

Therapy sessions are primarily offered virtually for clients across

Georgia, South Carolina, Washington, DC, Virginia, and Wisconsin

What issues do you commonly support in therapy sessions

Clients often seek support around trauma recovery, relational patterns, identity development, burnout, grief, ancestral and cultural disconnection, stress, perfectionism, and season of transition. Many clients identify with feeling stuck, overwhelmed or disconnected from themselves and are exploring ways to move toward alignment and ease.

How are Somatic Experiencing Support Sessions different from therapy sessions?

Therapy sessions involve clinical assessment, diagnosis, and treatment planning to address mental health concerns.

Somatic Experiencing Support Sessions offer body-based tools that support regulation, awareness, and capacity in the nervous system. These sessions are supportive rather than clinical and are designed to complement, not replace, therapy.

What is embodied clinical supervision?

Embodied clinical supervision integrates traditional clinical supervision with attention to nervous system responses, somatic awareness, and reflective practice. It supports therapists in developing clinical skills while also understanding how their bodies, identities, and lived experiences shape their work with clients.

Does supervision count toward licensure hours?

Supervision may count toward licensure hours depending on your state licensing board, licensure track, and supervision format. Supervisees are responsible for confirming that supervision hours, structure, and supervisor credentials meet their board’s requirements before beginning supervision.

What types of clinicians do you supervise?

Growth Explored provides supervision and reflective practice support for therapists working toward or holding clinical licensure, including social workers and other mental health clinicians, where permitted. Services are tailored based on licensure stage, clinical setting, and professional goals.

Do you offer virtual clinical supervision?

Yes. Virtual supervision is offered where permitted by state licensing boards. Acceptance of virtual supervision hours varies by state, so it is important to confirm eligibility with your licensing board before beginning supervision.

What is reflective practice in supervision?

Reflective practice is a structured process that supports clinicians in thinking critically about their clinical work, decision-making, and emotional responses. It promotes ethical awareness, professional growth, and sustainability by creating space to slow down and integrate learning.

What is included in organizational clinical consultation?

Organizational clinical consultation may include supervisee documentation review, case consultation, reflective practice groups, and support for clinical quality improvement. Services are consultative and designed to complement existing leadership and compliance structures.

What does organizational documentation review involve?

Documentation review focuses on clinical clarity, alignment between diagnosis, treatment planning, and progress notes, and ethical documentation practices. Reviews are developmental and educational, not punitive, and support supervisee growth and risk reduction.

Does organizational documentation review replace internal compliance oversight?

No. Documentation review and consultation services do not replace internal compliance, supervision, or regulatory responsibilities. Organizations retain full responsibility for employment, compliance, and licensure reporting requirements.

Who is organizational supervision and documentation review services best suited for?

These services are well-suited for individual therapists seeking embodied clinical supervision, as well as organizations such as group practices, agencies, and nonprofits employing pre-licensed clinicians who want additional clinical consultation or documentation support.
