Emily Burke

Degree: Clinical Mental Health Counseling
Education: Wake Forest University
Availability: Accepting new clients
More about Emily
I am a white cisgender queer woman working towards my dual MDiv in Interfaith Literacy and MA in Clinical Mental Health Counseling at Wake Forest University. I view psychotherapy as a collaborative process and assume that generally people are the best experts on themselves and what they need.
With an awareness of the pervasiveness of trauma in our world, often due to oppressive systems, I bring a trauma-informed and person-centered approach to therapy. I am receiving training in Voice Dialogue (a parts-work modality) and enjoy incorporating clients’ spiritual paths, practices, or beliefs into the counseling room. I enjoy working with children, teens, and adults. I also love cats, mutual aid, making music, vegan cooking, and being outside.
Billy Dickinson

More about Billy
I am a white genderqueer MSW student with a background in therapeutic intuitive movement for trauma recovery and exploratory expressive arts. My approach is collaborative, eclectic, creative, and queer. I specialize in supporting children, emerging adults, and adults through acute and complex trauma, anxiety, dissociation, and burnout.
I believe our body holds the healing, and work within this context. Our bodies hold such deep memories of our life stories, and oftentimes this can make our bodies tired! This can surface as many things, such as dissociation, anxiety, panic or burnout. My approach is centered in co-regulationing our nervous systems and releasing tension in mind, body, and spirit through trauma-informed techniques. Together, we will explore the intricacies of how you are moving through life and ways to nourish and nurture your authentic self.
In our space, I invite open discussions on how challenges like transphobia, racism, or ableism might impact your ability to find joy and feel secure. I believe in creating community-oriented, radically inclusive and accessible, trauma-informed therapeutic spaces to actively deconstruct the systemic barriers imposed by capitalism in the mental health field.
When a seed is not in bloom, we don’t blame its nature; we ponder if it craves more sunlight, thirsts for more water, or yearns for richer soil. Just as the earth nurtures the seed, our surroundings nourish us, shaping our growth. Together, we will foster that blossoming.

More about Anthony
My name is Anthony, and my goal is to support your journey toward improved mental well-being. I am currently in my third and final year of a graduate Clinical Mental Health Counseling program at North Carolina State University, and I expect to become eligible to obtain a Licensed Clinical Mental Health Counselor Associate (LCMHCA) license in 2025.
I have internship experience working with adults in recovery from substance misuse, but the
mental health therapies that I practice are relevant across a wide range of presenting issues.
These collaborative mental health techniques are based on curiosity, mindfulness, self-insight,
self-compassion, and acceptance. I believe that you are the expert on your own mind and lived
experiences, and my role is to help co-create the practices and environment that support your
mental health and personal growth.
In terms of my background, I identify as a biracial (Asian and white), second-generation
immigrant, cis-gender, heterosexual, college-educated, middle-class, middle-age, progressive,
Buddhist, American man, and parent of three kids. I have a background in social justice work,
and I am aware that I operate with many privileges in an oppressive system that discriminates
against and “otherizes” individuals with historically marginalized identities. I am also influenced
by a co-liberatory perspective that no one is free unless we are all free, and by an on-going
journey to cultivate self-awareness and cultural humility.

More about Eva
Hi! My name is Eva (she/her), and I am currently a master’s of social work student at Smith College. After graduating with a degree in journalism from UNC-Chapel Hill and working in the hyper-productive news industry for some time, I have realized the importance of slowing down and taking time for yourself in a world that always feels like it is spinning too fast.
As a queer woman, I know firsthand the importance of having wider access to LBGTQ+ affirming therapists and mental health care services and therefore am committed to providing an affirming and supportive space for everyone. I approach therapy as a way to position us to better understand our shared and individual struggles, and support each other towards a future that faces challenges with empathy.

My goal is to help reform and create care systems that provide person-centered services, which are trauma-informed and culturally competent for all communities. My ultimate passion is to see healthcare become a system that enables people to determine and achieve their dreams.

More about Jessie
I am a white, cisgender, and neurodivergent Master of Social Work student who grew up in rural Michigan and has lived in North Carolina since 2010.
My approach to therapy is collaborative, holistic, non-judgmental, and focused on identifying and celebrating your strengths. I want to help you find meaning, fulfillment, and peace in your life. My therapeutic approach is informed by such methods as acceptance and commitment therapy (ACT) and dialectical behavior therapy (DBT).
I know how difficult and effortful transformation and change can be. I recognize and acknowledge that trauma is ever-present in many lives. We exist within systems of oppression that remove our agency and force compliance, stifling our ability to grow and thrive. As a therapist, I am intentional and mindful of using my power and agency toward healing and justice.
Outside of therapy I enjoy playing and making my own games, creating meals and baking desserts, spending time with friends watching movies that are “bad, but good actually” or playing board games. I may also be found running, lifting weights, or reading a book while on an elliptical.

Role in Fellowship Program: Director of Training and Internship
Licensure: Counseling Psychologist
Education: Duke University, Washington State University, University of Nevada, Reno
More about Marvice
What do you like most about clinical supervision?
Figuring out effective and pedagogically sound ways to scaffold complex topics in supervision is quite fascinating. Having the unique opportunity to engage with emerging mental health professionals is a privilege. Interns typically bring new energy to the field, and this is energizing. I have benefited greatly from supervisors who were patient, thoughtful, and intellectually stimulating, so my primary objective in being a supervisor is to recreate a similar experience for the next wave of practitioners.
How would you describe your approach to clinical supervision?
Broadly, depth psychology is a guiding framework of my approach to clinical supervision. Use-of-self is a cornerstone that I frequently return to in meetings with interns, as service provision is a highly fluid and personal enterprise. As such, it necessitates, in my opinion, careful self-interrogation and rigorous meaning-making. Dialogical reflexivity helps me support interns, in addition to interdisciplinary scholarship. While skills acquisition is a goal of intensive clinical supervision, I also endeavor to help interns cultivate more curiosity about their internal experience and how they bring themselves, however polished or inchoate, to the work we do as helping professionals.
What are 3 characteristics of a successful Fellow?
Disciplined, proactive, and curious.
How do you account for cultural and identity factors in clinical supervision?
Exploring the many facets of culture is fun! Culture, which is sometimes taken-for-granted, shapes how we experience the world and each other. In fact, culture informs how I relate to myself. I work with interns to explore emic and etic perspectives of culture, its relevance to psychological functioning, and personhood. Suffice to say, if the topic matter discussed in clinical supervision engenders discomfort, then some kind of cultural precept is at play…and we are right where we need to be!
Who has contributed most to your learning and development as a clinician?
This is easy––my patients––the folx who tirelessly work to understand, heal, and create anew each day with me as their trusted psychologist.
Iman Said
all pronouns
Role in Fellowship Program: Assistant Director of Training and Internship; Internship Fellows Group Supervision Supervisor
Licensure: Counseling Psychologist
Education/Training: Georgia State University, University of Maryland at Baltimore County
More about Iman
What do you like most about clinical supervision?
I love witnessing how clinical supervision allows personal growth to impact professional growth and vice versa for supervisees and supervisors. My favorite aspect of group supervision is the opportunity to learn from and grow with peers. Sometimes, providing individual therapy can feel isolating for new clinicians outside of the therapist-client relationship. Group supervision offers a sweet spot for cultivating a space to learn with other interns which provides some of the most affirming experiences in training.
How would you describe your approach to clinical supervision?
I utilize multiple supervisory theoretical models:
1. a process model, 2. a combined psychotherapy framework, and 3. a supervision developmental model.
Respectively, these approaches are the Discrimination Model, Narrative and Feminist theories, and Loganbill, Hardy, and Delworth’s Developmental supervisory model. The Discrimination Model utilizes a counselor, consultant, and teacher role in supervision. Narrative Therapy explores the outcomes of an individual’s socially and culturally constructed reality (storytelling) and Feminist Therapy highlights the effects of systems of oppression and multiculturalism using collaborative client-directed approaches. Finally, the Developmental Model focuses on the supervisee’s growth in the supervisory process and allows me to align my supervision and guidance to your developmental stage as a clinician.
What are the 3 characteristics of a successful Fellow?
Curiosity, Discernment, and Authenticity.
How do you account for cultural and identity factors in clinical supervision?
I often encourage supervisees to have open and honest discussions regarding identity similarities and differences in the therapy room and the supervision space. My Feminist framework for clinical work informs my clinical supervision approach and attends to cultural factors. The feminist model highlights antiracist and multiculturally-oriented approaches to supervision, acknowledging systems of oppression, and striving for power-sharing.
Who has contributed most to your learning and development as a clinician?
My mom has significantly contributed to my learning and development as a clinician because she was my first introduction to the helping field. Growing up with her as a therapist led me to remain curious about others in a way that has fostered my identity as a clinician. Learning more about her work allowed me to channel this curiosity into my role as a helper and healer to walk alongside clients in holding life’s questions.

Role in Fellowship Program: Clinical Supervisor

More about David
What do you like most about clinical supervision?
I find it invigorating to support clinicians in understanding what’s most important to them, what they enjoy most about this work and how to stretch beyond what they think is possible. It’s amazing how much growth and transformation happens for trainees over the course of a year. And of course, I value the great personal learning that takes shape for me during the year.
How would you describe your approach to clinical supervision?
My approach is collaborative and facilitated by a psychodynamic and relational-cultural frame. Our work is served well when clinicians take ownership of their own learning and bring an open mind and heart to our work. Over the year, we spend a lot of time focusing on the content and process of the supervisee’s experience with a special focus on each supervisee’s unique concerns and challenges that show up in the clinical relationship. While we spend considerable time focused on the supervisee’s relationship with the patient, we will also examine the relationship between supervisor and supervisee and its impact on training and development.
What are 3 characteristics of a successful Fellow?
Curiosity, Presence, and Mindfulness
How do you account for cultural and identity factors in clinical supervision?
Culture and Identity frame the context in which we Intuit and understand our lives. Understanding these contextual forces is critical in providing ethical, healing work with diverse clients. In supervision, we explore these factors over the course of our own lives and how they play out in supervision, our clinical work, with colleagues, family and the larger world.
Who has contributed most to your learning and development as a clinician?
My clients, colleagues, and supervisees have had a great impact on my work and have provided the best source of training and education. I’m continually inspired and in awe of the impact my community has on my work.

More about Sara
It is an honor to contribute to the field through fostering a nurturing, vigorous training experience for Fellows. It is exciting to witness and support a Fellow’s development of their clinical voice and skills throughout the course of their clinical placement.
How would you describe your approach to clinical supervision?
My supervisory approach is relational and direct. I use Socratic questions, feedback, compassion, and levity in my supervisory approach. I share information about evidence-based interventions and measures while also making space for Fellows to find their authentic clinical voice. I prioritize a Fellow’s health and well-being while also upholding a Fellow’s learning goals. My hope is that I can create an environment with a Fellow where we can acknowledge potential missteps or challenges and find our footing again. By the end of Fellowship, I hope that Fellows I supervise develop confidence in their emerging skill set and remain open to opportunities for growth.
What are 3 characteristics of a successful Fellow?
Introspective, self-compassionate, and game
How do you account for cultural and identity factors in clinical supervision?
Our identities and experiences with privilege and oppression are important parts of ourselves that we bring into every interaction, including clinical and supervision spaces. I am a White, straight, cis woman who is dedicated to personal and collective liberation from White supremacy, capitalism, and patriarchy. I aim to understand my Fellow’s lived experiences with privilege and oppression and how they can interact with my own in the supervision space. I continue to learn more and more about how to decolonize clinical supervision.
Who has contributed most to your learning and development as a clinician?
‘m forever shaped by my loved ones: my child, my partner, and my family – both chosen and biological.
The following clinicians directly contributed to my professional development as a clinician: Donna Potter, Kelly Sullivan, Elizabeth Dondero, Sara Yates, Stefanie LoSavio, Jon Ebert, Toni Herbine-Blank, and all of the clinicians who I worked with at the Center for Child and Family Health.
The following writers/thinkers/disruptors have contributed to my clinical voice: bell hooks, Mab Segrest, Audre Lorde, Gloria Anzaldua, Loretta Ross, Adrienne Rich, James Baldwin, Daniel Siegel, Emil Rudicell, and Sabrina Imbler.

More about Ashley
What do you like most about clinical supervision?
I enjoy the relationship developed in clinical supervision. My own clinical supervision was and is important in my development, and I’m honored to be in a position to pay it forward to others. Clinical supervision at its best is a vehicle for tremendous growth and learning on both sides, which I find exciting and invigorating.
How would you describe your approach to clinical supervision?
I strive to approach clinical supervision in a collaborative and transparent manner. Clinical supervision has an inherent power imbalance, and at the same time I believe that everyone has something to learn and something to teach. I like to believe that I bring strengths in connecting clinical practice to theory, curiosity, and humor to my practice.
What are 3 characteristics of a successful Fellow?
Curious, reliable, and courageous
How do you account for cultural and identity factors in clinical supervision?
I believe it is part of a supervisor’s role to invite exploration around cultural and identity factors in supervision, and to create a safe enough container in which to do so. I strive to approach these factors with a compassionate and respectful curiosity, and believe that these explorations can parallel and enrich our work with clients and ourselves. I honor that there are and have always been multiple ways of knowing, being, and doing. Simultaneously, we exist in white supremacist capitalist kyriarchy, which has legacies in our professions and has influenced our (sub)conscious minds. I consider liberation an essential element in psychotherapy, and in turn these factors are essential to account for in clinical supervision.
Who has contributed most to your learning and development as a clinician?
My own clinical supervisor was and continues to be a deeply impactful source of learning and development to myself as a clinician. Academically, I am inspired and influenced by many thinkers, including and not limited to bell hooks, Paulo Friere, and Michel Foucault. Experientially, I have found a lot of growth and learning in connection to plants and animals.

More about Meagan
What do you like most about clinical supervision?
I remember my MSW field placements well and love that I can take a turn supporting new clinicians. Serving as a supervisor allows me to share what I have learned and continue learning new things myself!
How would you describe your approach to clinical supervision?
I like to include many elements in supervision. Those include exploring the internal experience of being a new therapist, processing transference and countertransference, teaching concrete skills from different modalities, and encouraging fellows to develop compassion and acceptance for themselves and their clients.
What are 3 characteristics of a successful Fellow?
Self-compassion, independent motivation, and passion for the work.
How do you account for cultural and identity factors in clinical supervision?
We begin by noticing the identities of our clients that can marginalize or alienate them in therapy and in daily life. We skillfully acknowledge these identities and any differences between us and seek informed consent to work together. We continually listen with open minds and accept our clients’ truths. The same applies to the fellow/supervisor relationship.
Who has contributed most to your learning and development as a clinician?
Over the years I have learned from many supervisors in field placement and work settings. I’ve been supported by peers and therapists more experienced than myself in group supervision or peer supervision. I have attended training with experts in a variety of modalities. I carry their wisdom with me!

More about Ray
What do you like most about clinical supervision?
Clinical supervision is so vital! Not only does it provide a rich environment for learning clinical skills but also a space to reflect on our progress, mistakes, feelings and defenses. Imposter syndrome is a huge obstacle for so many of us upon entering the mental health field, and having a safe holding environment in clinical supervision can help us to build confidence.
How would you describe your approach to clinical supervision?
I hope to offer my supervisees consistency, boundary modeling, warmth and curiosity. I also value gentle confrontation and empathic reflection in order to increase insight and understanding of transference / countertransference issues. I believe a supervision meeting is equally successful whether it leaves us feeling intellectually and emotionally challenged or more resourced and capable than we were before.
What are 3 characteristics of a successful Fellow?
Not 3 characteristics, but 3 words come to mind: Curious About Discomfort 🙂
How do you account for cultural and identity factors in clinical supervision?
As in any relationship dynamic, culture and identity factors are undoubtedly in the room when I meet with my supervisees. As a white clinician and supervisor, it is my responsibility to be aware of both the overt and covert influences of colonialism and white supremacy in social work practice and supervision alike. I seek to bring anti-oppressive values into all of my personal, clinical and collegial relationships, while humbly acknowledging that I have and will continue to uncover my own internalized biases and shortcomings.
Who has contributed most to your learning and development as a clinician?
I have been fortunate to have had some excellent past clinical supervisors who modeled for me so many valuable relational and professional skills. Their guidance and encouragement was crucial, especially while I worked as a student intern. My clinical supervisor out of graduate school is someone I still admire and hope to emulate in my supervision practice for her emphasis on attachment theory and countertransference. This Fall I will begin training remotely with the Manhattan Institute for Psychoanalysis, which I hope will also be supportive in growing my clinical and supervisory skills.

Role in Fellowship Program: Clinical Supervisor
Licensure: LCMHC

More about Samara
What do you like most about clinical supervision?
Supervision has always been one of my favorite parts of clinical work. It provides therapists an opportunity to collaborate with other professionals, share various interpretations of cases, and ensure thorough care for self (as a clinician) and one’s clients. Mental health fields are unique in that therapists acknowledge clients’ internal world, which can really vary in presentation. Having a space where clinicians can come together and brainstorm allows us to acknowledge our own humanity and honor the complexity of our connections to one another in clinical spaces.
How would you describe your approach to clinical supervision?
As a supervisor, I prioritize multiculturalism, transparency, and authenticity. Counseling is truly a craft to be intentional about shaping, while also incorporating your personal style and context. We can’t escape being human in our work and it can be transformed into our greatest strength through the utilization of the appropriate resources. My approach to supervision reflects the delicate balance of challenging ourselves as clinicians and academics, while also understanding how our personal growth and reflection can be equally as important to our work.
What are 3 characteristics of a successful Fellow?
Curiosity, Openness, and Perseverance
How do you account for cultural and identity factors in clinical supervision?
Cultural and identity factors can show up in various ways throughout our work as clinicians, but is always a significant variable in the room. When beginning my role as a clinician, I often felt my cultural background and identity were on full display in comparison to many of my colleagues, considering I was in many predominantly white, cis-het spaces. I’ve learned overtime from various supervisors and peers that acknowledging cultural and identity factors in supervision and other clinical spaces can add to the richness of one’s work, when applied appropriately and intentionally. In supervision, we’ll acknowledge how these factors may impact dynamics in sessions, communication, interpretations, and experiences navigating clinical work as a whole.
Who has contributed most to your learning and development as a clinician?
My clinical supervisor at Northwestern University was a Black woman with such profound knowledge of and experience in the field. She really inspired my curiosity, not only about theory, but about my personal way of showing up with clients. Our supervision showed me how deeply healing and enlightening human connection can be, even when we can’t quite find the words to capture it. That experience inspired my love for supervision and my desire to facilitate supervision in a way that may also inspire other new clinicians.
