Clinical Supervision

Offering clinical supervision, consultation, and mentorship to master’s-level counselling students, emerging practitioners, and experienced clinicians. Areas include ethical decision-making, case consultation, reflective practice, trauma-informed care, cultural responsiveness, and professional identity development.

Supervision is offered individually and in groups, in person and online — for students on practicum, and for counsellors working toward their supervision requirements. Poran has supervised master’s-level students since 2014.

Focus: Developing confident, reflective, ethical, and compassionate practitioners.

Students join us from different institutions. Poran is an approved supervisor for Yorkville University’s MACP program, and students also come from City University and other institutions — wherever you are studying, you are warmly encouraged to apply, and we will work with your program’s requirements.

PhD and doctorate students are also welcome. Alongside supervision, Poran offers support with research studies — from shaping the question and design through to completing the work.
