Clinical Manager

Licensed Clinical Social Worker

Hi, I’m Lola!

As an LCSW Clinical Manager I oversee the diverse team of interns and provisionally licensed therapists at Redirecting Life Counseling Center by providing structured weekly supervision, individualized case consultation, and competency-based training to ensure ethical, culturally responsive, and evidence-informed care. I monitor clinical progress through regular review of treatment plans and documentation, offer real-time feedback on assessment and intervention skills, and facilitate opportunities for professional growth including role-plays, interdisciplinary case conferences, and access to continuing education. I prioritize creating a supportive, nonjudgmental learning environment that balances trainee autonomy with client safety, ensuring clear expectations, timely corrective guidance, and pathways to licensure readiness.

Supervision with me looks like :

  • Provide clear expectations: define roles, responsibilities, goals, and measurable outcomes for supervisee performance.

  • Establish regular, scheduled supervision sessions (weekly or biweekly) with a consistent agenda.

  • Create a safe, nonjudgmental environment that encourages open discussion of cases, mistakes, and ethical concerns.

  • Use a combination of developmental, reflective, and case-based approaches tailored to the supervisee’s experience level.

  • Review case documentation, treatment planning, progress notes, and risk assessments for accuracy and completeness.

  • Observe clinical work directly when possible (live, recorded, or co-therapy) and provide specific, behaviorally anchored feedback.

  • Model clinical skills, professional demeanor, and appropriate boundaries.

  • Teach and reinforce evidence-based interventions and culturally responsive practices.

  • Address legal, ethical, and confidentiality issues; ensure supervisee understands mandated reporting

My Specialties

  • Men

    Irk with minority adult men focuses on creating a space where emotions can be explored without judgment or pressure. Sessions help build emotional awareness and language, making it easier to identify, understand, and express feelings in a healthy way. Through a structured yet supportive approach, clients learn to challenge unhelpful thinking patterns, improve communication, and navigate everyday stressors more effectively. Emphasis is placed on developing emotional intelligence, strengthening self-regulation, and building confidence in both personal and relational spaces.

  • Teens

    Work with teens focuses on creating a safe, supportive space where they feel comfortable expressing themselves and being heard. Sessions help teens better understand the connection between their thoughts, emotions, and behaviors, while building skills to manage stress, navigate challenges, and communicate more effectively. Using a blend of CBT, person-centered, and solution-focused approaches, support is tailored to meet teens where they are—helping them strengthen self-awareness, improve emotional regulation, and build confidence as they grow.

  • Depression & Anxiety

    When your days feel heavy and motivation seems like an impossible task, or when anxious thoughts constantly intrude, making you second-guess everything, it’s easy to feel trapped. Depression and anxiety can make you feel like you're always running on empty, questioning your worth, and your ability to handle life’s challenges. I’m here to help you find tools and strategies that fit your unique needs, so you can begin to experience moments of calm, hope, and joy again. You deserve to feel lighter, more confident, and in control of your emotional world, and we’ll work together to make that happen.
