Low-Cost Supervision

As a service to the social work community, GSCSW offers a list of supervisors who have volunteered to offer supervision at a reduced cost to members who are MSW’s looking for LCSW supervision. Our volunteer supervisors are seasoned clinicians, who have expertise in a variety of modalities, theoretical orientations, populations, and specialties.

GSCSW members are eligible to receive the recommended low-cost rates which range from $40 – $80 per hour for individual, $60-$80 total for paired, and $30 -$40 per person for group supervision. The rates can be negotiated between the supervisor and supervisee. When contacting a prospective supervisor, be sure to mention that you are a current GSCSW member inquiring about the low cost supervision member benefit.  

If you are looking for a supervisor, please see the list below and contact the supervisors directly to try to work out arrangements. You may also contact the Committee Chairs, at supervision@gscsw.org for assistance with selecting a supervisor based on your clinical interest and need.

If you are interested in reviewing the requirements for LCSW licensure, click here. As a reminder to both supervisees and supervisors, the following requirement for documentation is enforced:

“Both supervisors and supervisees are required to maintain a contemporaneous record of the date, duration, type (individual, paired, or group), and a brief summary of the pertinent activity for each supervision session to be submitted to the Board upon request. If there are any discrepancies in hours, contemporaneous documentation of supervision will be requested.”
