CLINICAL SUPERVISION & CONSULTATION
CLINICAL SUPERVISION & CONSULTATION
If you’ve ever heard that “the relationship is the intervention” and wondered what it asks of you, who you are meant to be in the room, and how your presence becomes the thing that heals, psychoanalytic work offers a way in. Drawing on attachment theory and psychoanalytic thought, it invites you to become the kind of steady, curious presence in which a client’s earliest relational patterns can emerge and slowly change, and to discover that your own way of showing up is far more of an instrument than you ever imagined. Deepen your clinical work with supervision and consultation grounded in psychoanalytic thinking and built for clinicians who want to move beyond technique into mastery.
Whether you’re a developing therapist building a foundation, a seasoned clinician facing a stubborn impasse, or a team seeking a richer understanding of the people you serve, this is a space to think openly about the real complexity of therapeutic work.
Clinical work asks a great deal of us, and in many ways is more of an art form than a hard science. The longer we practice, the more we come to appreciate how much remains unknown in the room: the patient who stays elusive, the treatment that circles the same ground, the feeling we can’t quite name until months later. We offer a thoughtful, unhurried space to think about that complexity, drawing on the rich traditions of psychoanalytic theory and clinical wisdom.
You already have skill, training, and years of hard-won experience. What many seasoned clinicians seek is not more technique but greater depth: a place to bring the cases that unsettle or puzzle you, to examine your own participation in the work, and to expand your capacity to listen at multiple levels and hold the mind of someone else inside your own. Consultation here is exploratory, a conversation between professionals rather than an exercise in correction.
For clinicians accruing hours toward licensure, we provide supervision that meets board requirements in the state of Colorado. Supervisees receive rigorous, supportive guidance in building a sound clinical foundation, with careful attention to ethical practice, case formulation, and the development of a professional identity. Documentation and verification of hours are handled with care and in accordance with board standards.
Advanced formulation and case conceptualization: Learning to hear the unconscious organization beneath the presenting problem, and to hold multiple levels of symbolism and meaning at once.
Technique and the therapeutic frame: Clinical intuition, timing, interpretation, silence, boundaries, and the subtle decisions that shape a treatment.
The architecture of the unconscious in the clinical hour: Hearing the latent beneath the manifest, and formulating cases with greater nuance.
Transference, countertransference, and enactment: Treating your own responses as essential clinical data, and working with ruptures and repair. Understanding who your patient needs you to be, and how to incorporate that into corrective relational experience.
Impasse and the stalled treatment: Understanding what a patient’s resistance protects, and what it communicates.
Complex clinical presentations: Trauma, personality organization, attachment disruption, and the treatments that resist easy formulation.
The theoretical conversation: Engaging Jung, Klein, Winnicott, Bion, Gilligan, Benjamin, feminist, relational and contemporary thinkers as living resources rather than historical artifacts.
The clinician’s own development: Sustaining curiosity, celebrating uncertainty, and finding a more authentic clinical voice.
The spirit of the work
Good supervision is a shared effort to think about what is happening between patient and therapist and to let that understanding deepen over time. Our hope is that you leave each meeting with a richer sense of your patients, your process, and yourself as an artist, a clinician, a co-creator.
Available in person and via secure teleconference. We welcome an initial conversation to discuss your goals and whether we are a good fit.
Jesse’s approach to supervision is rooted in Jungian depth psychology and the supervisory matrix model, a relational framework that understands the supervisory hour as a shared field in which unconscious material moves between client, supervisee, and supervisor. Drawing on the Jungian notion of the analytic field, attention is given to what emerges in the clinical dyad as well as to the enactments and parallel processes that arise within supervision itself, where the unspoken often finds its most vivid expression.
Supervisees can expect a supportive, exploratory space that honors curiosity, symbolic thinking, and reflection on the interpersonal and imaginal dimensions of clinical work. Transference and countertransference are approached not merely as obstacles or technical problems, but as meaningful communications from the psyche, offering a way into what a client cannot yet say directly. For clinicians seeking to deepen their capacity to work at this level, this orientation enriches case conceptualization, diagnosis, and treatment planning with greater nuance and depth.

Ashley’s approach to supervision draws on developmental and reflective models, an integration that allows each supervisee to be met where they are while being gently challenged toward where they are growing. Supervision is tailored to the clinician’s present needs and stage of development, offering support when it is needed and stretch when it is ready to be taken up.
At the heart of this work is reflective inquiry. Supervisees are invited to explore their emotional responses, their assumptions, and the many relationships that shape their clinical lives: with clients, with their supervisor, and with colleagues and other professionals. This kind of curiosity about one’s own participation deepens self-awareness and fosters a more thoughtful, grounded professional practice.
Ashley also has specialized training in work with children and adolescents and welcomes clinicians who serve young people and their families.
