Resident Therapists have it hard.
Resident therapists are expected to jump into clinical work—often virtually—right out of grad school. But supervision usually focuses on client issues, leaving little room to build core skills like documentation, treatment planning, boundaries, and professional identity.​​​

Why Modern Residency Is So Challenging:
-
Hybrid, alone & independent settings without fellow clinicians to observe.
-
High acuity clients and complex client needs and diagnoses.
-
Pressure to perform at the outpatient therapist level right out of school.
-
Weekly Supervision goes by FAST and feels like putting out fires!
-
Lack of practical training for modern therapy settings.
-
Burnout risks are high with financial, performance, and client pressures.
-
Risky mistakes that resident's don't realize they are making.
Introducing The Virtual Residency™
The Virtual Residency™ is designed to complement clinical supervision across all therapy disciplines. Residents are guided through a structured, foundational program that delivers the essential knowledge every early-career therapist needs, presented in focused, 30-minute weekly videos that are easy to digest and apply
.
TVR supports therapists throughout their entire first year of residency, and continues to serve as a valuable resource as they grow. Whether a resident is just starting or already mid-way through their residency, the training offers meaningful, practical guidance that enhances their clinical work from day one.
What is The Virtual Residency?
12 Modules, 1 Per month
4 Videos Per Module, about 30 mins per week
​
Foundational knowledge that resident therapists need to know in order to be effective in the outpatient therapy space with their clients.
​
We're clear with the residents, this is NOT supervision nor test prep. This IS workplace training. TVR will maximize the residency process, compliments supervision, and improves the workplace experience for resident therapists and employers,

Hello!
I’m a generalist therapist with a strong humanistic and existential core, and over a decade in the field. My most recent chapter was launching and running a group practice centered around resident training and supervision. That’s where I first worked closely with resident therapists, and I quickly realized something important: one hour of supervision just isn’t enough.
Residents today are being asked to do more than ever. They’re working independently, virtually, and with diverse client populations. They often struggle with little context for how this industry actually works. They need more than theory and approach. They need real-world scaffolding: how to diagnose, how to document, how to understand levels of care, treatment planning, boundaries, liability, and more.
I’ve since passed on the practice to new leadership, but my commitment to early-career therapist education hasn’t gone anywhere. That’s why I created The Virtual Residency. The TVR gives residents what they actually need to succeed and it creates a collaborative space where experienced clinicians can share their wisdom in a way that’s simple, digestible, and immediately helpful.
What I love about the TVR is that it supports residents from all backgrounds. No matter where they trained, this is the workplace where they all overlap, and that’s where it matters. The Virtual Residency gives them the shared language, tools, and confidence to step into their roles with clarity.
I’m down to earth and I say what I mean. That directness helps me take complex topics and distill them into foundational lessons that residents can use right away.
One of my favorite parts of this project is working with guest lecturers and subject matter experts. I love the process of meeting a therapist, helping them shape their knowledge into a high-impact training module, and watching them realize just how much they really have to offer. If you’re passionate about the future of our field, and want to help shape it. This is your invitation to join me.
