Mentorship options
Both build your skills. The difference is accountability and purpose.
A formal, ongoing relationship for social workers who need supervised hours or supervision toward registration, such as ACSW provisional, psychosocial intervention and RCSW requirements, or Ontario equivalency applicants. The supervisor shares responsibility for oversight and documents your hours.
Flexible, advisory sessions for social workers, Canadian Certified Counsellors, ACTA members, psychotherapists and other clinicians who want expert input on cases, CBT, couples work, trauma or ethics. You keep full responsibility for your clients.
Focus areas
Sessions follow your goals and caseload.
