Why We Started WisePractice Institute: A New Era of Supervision Training

Welcome to WisePractice Institute—we’re so glad you’re here.

Chelsea’s office — where the coffee is often tepid, but the connection is warm.

We founded WisePractice because we saw a gap in supervision training. Yes, plenty of courses meet state board requirements. But few speak to the heart of what supervision is: a deeply relational, ethically grounded, and skillfully nuanced role that can shape entire careers—and lives.

As clinicians, supervisors, and educators, we’ve spent years sitting with new professionals, supporting their growth, holding complexity, and navigating those inevitable “What do I do here?” moments. We’ve also trained and mentored other supervisors who often tell us: “I wish someone had taught me this when I was starting out.”

WisePractice is our answer to that wish.

Why Our Training is Different

We’ve built our 40-hour Clinical Supervision Training not just to check the boxes for Texas LPCs, LCSWs, and LMFTs—but to truly equip supervisors with the knowledge, tools, and confidence they need.

We designed it for real life. For real learners. For compassionate clinicians stepping into a new level of professional responsibility.

Our course is:

  • Evidence-based and rooted in best practices across disciplines.

  • Dynamic and accessible, offering diverse formats: read, watch, listen, reflect, engage.

  • Relationally focused, honoring the human experience of both supervisor and supervisee.

  • Ethically clear and grounded in gatekeeping responsibilities—with nuance, not fear.

  • Wisdom-centered, because we believe good practice isn’t just about technique—it’s about discernment.

Who This Is For

Whether you’re applying for supervisor status, preparing to take on your first supervisee, or returning to the role after time away, this training meets you where you are—and helps you grow where you want to go.

And if you’re already a supervisor? Stay tuned. Renewal content and advanced trainings are on the way.
