hey love — welcome to the messy beginning!You made it through grad school. That counts.
Grad school gave you theory. Supervision is supposed to give you real-world reps—without turning you into a numb little clipboard zombie.
But a lot of LPC Associates get tossed into the deep end with a prayer and a progress note template.
Suddenly you’re expected to:
hold trauma, crisis, and complexity
learn documentation, ethics, and systems fast
and still be a regulated human being with an actual nervous system
Nobody teaches you how to do all of that without disappearing inside it.
That’s where I come in.
I’m Shawna Lovin, LPC-S — a Texas Board-Approved Supervisor (BHEC), therapist, and wellness educator with 25 years in helping spaces.
Supervision with me is more than compliance. It’s mentorship—grounded, practical, and human.
Because your growth isn’t measured by how perfectly you follow someone else’s script.
It’s measured by how well you can:
stay regulated enough to think clearly
hold boundaries without guilt spirals
trust your voice in the room
build a career that doesn’t break you
If that feels like a breath of fresh air—you’re in the right place.
What former LPC-Associates say…

“I went to Shawna in a very vulnerable state. I wasn’t sure if I would be able to keep my license. She listened to me, guided me, and took me under her wing. I now own a group practice, and I run a nonprofit. I oversee several other therapists. None of it could have happened without her.”

“I came to Shawna after there were some issues with my previous Supervisor. She truly cares and genuinely wants to help clinicians succeed. Shawna typically operates outside of the box but shows up authentically and encourages others to do the same. I appreciate her open-mindedness and eagerness to explore new ideas. I have had a great experience with Shawna.”

“Supervision with Shawna was the most grounded and flexible part of my licensure process. I loved being part of a group of other private practice owners where we could learn from each other and get new ideas. Shawna brings so much real-world experience and isn’t afraid to be honest about the journey — she cusses, she laughs, she keeps it real. Her insight and openness made everything feel doable, not overwhelming. If you’re looking for a supervisor who supports your growth and your independence, Shawna’s the one.”
The Crossroads… What kind of supervision do you want?
You’re at the beginning of your LPC journey, and the supervision you choose is going to shape how you practice for years.
There are basically two options.
-
Path One: Hour-Log Supervision
You get the signature. You clock the hours. You stay quiet and play it safe.
It “works” on paper:
Boxes get checked
Forms get signed
You move toward full licensure
But it often comes with a cost:
You burn out before you’re even fully licensed
You second-guess yourself and stop asking questions
You don’t build real confidence—just compliance
-
Path Two: Supervision as Mentorship
This is the path we walk together.
Supervision with me is an apprenticeship in being a skilled, ethical therapist & a whole human.
That means we look at:
The case + clients
The ethics + documentation
What the work is doing to your nervous system
We bring in nervous system regulation and somatic awareness—not as “self-care homework,” but as part of how you become the kind of clinician who can do this work long-term.
Self-care isn’t an add-on here. It’s part of the supervision.
This isn’t about “doing it right” or performing competence.
It’s about becoming the version of you who can sit with another human and stay:
grounded
present
clear
still yourself
No mask required.
That’s baked into how we plan, how we track your capacity, and how we support your nervous system—month after month.
Because this work shouldn’t break you just to prove you can do it.
What we’re building is:
resilience you can actually feel
alignment between your values and your practice
a sustainable way to become fully licensed without burning down your life
Supervision with me includes:
4 hours/month
a mix of individual + group so you get personal support and peer wisdom
electronic hour tracking (no spreadsheet stress)
honest feedback you can actually use (no fluff, no buzzword soup)
case consultation rooted in ethics, nervous-system awareness, and clinical depth
private practice/career guidance (build a path that fits your energy)
emergency consult option for “holy crap” moments
access to workshops/learning resources, when available
We don’t stop at treatment plans and diagnoses.
We also talk about:
burnout + secondary trauma
imposter stories (“I’m not good enough yet”)
loneliness in this field
identity, culture, and lived experience
boundary fatigue and learning to say no
the pressure to look like you’ve got it all figured out
Because supervision isn’t just about learning to treat clients.
It’s about learning to stay with yourself while you do.
