Clinical Supervision

Dear Future Licensed Therapist,

I remember going through the tedious process of gaining my clinical hours for my license.

It takes such a long time, and the end never seems to be in sight.

Dealing with new kinds of clients, struggling to find your unique population, finding your “voice” as a therapist can be an anxious process.

However, the process is worth the time and effort. You have the incredible opportunity of refining your skills and growing into an even better clinician than you already are.

I’ll forever be grateful to the BBS supervisor I had and her role in providing feedback and guidance.

She helped me learn how to roll with resistance and overcome my own insecurities to become the competent and confident therapist I am today.

A Little About Me

I’m Kayla Pineda, LCSW.

I have over 10 years of experience working with various populations. I am also the owner and founder of Rising Pines Counseling Services.

I specialize in working with individuals recovering from trauma through EMDR therapy, and my background spans community mental health, psychiatric hospital settings, treatment centers, and schools.

I provide remote clinical supervision to ASWs, AMFTs, and APCCs across California.

My goal is to help you rise above and grow through every season of your professional journey.

My Approach to Clinical Supervision

I absolutely love my work with clients, but I also know that burnout is real in this field. There are times when it makes the work feel like more of a drag than you want it to be.

There are times when our own “stuff” comes up and gets in the way of the work we’re doing with our clients.

I’m the type of supervisor who helps you build strategies for your clients, and I’m equally aware that therapists are human beings too.

When countertransference shows up, I’ll support you to evaluate how those emotions are influencing your work. When some more personal reflection or processing needs to happen outside of session, we’ll make space for it.

What Supervision Looks Like with Me

Our supervision sessions together will be laid back enough that you feel comfortable expressing your struggles without judgment, but they’ll be productive enough to give you real tools and growth.

The supervisees I work best with are individuals who genuinely want to grow in their skills.

A level of humility in acknowledging where the growth needs to happen is the best way to make progress and see the changes you’re hoping for.

If you’re open to receiving feedback and willing to learn, we’re already off to a great start.

What to Expect From Our Partnership

Supervision is a collaborative relationship designed to review your clinical work, enhance your skills, and ensure the highest standard of care for your clients.

Sessions are fully remote, available throughout California. Our work together will cover case conceptualization, therapeutic relationship management, and clinical skill-building – with dedicated guidance on EMDR implementation and trauma-informed care. I provide consistent oversight and documentation to meet your specific licensing board requirements.

Is This the Right Fit for You?

I’m passionate about serving others and I strive to provide compassionate, evidence-based supervision.

If you’re looking for a supervisor who values clinical integrity, trauma-informed expertise, and a mentorship environment where you can be honest about where you’re at, I’d love to connect.
