CHRIS CAMPASSI

Supervision Training and Experience:

My clinical experience includes work in a Community Mental Health Center, residential settings for children, adolescents and adults, Hospital Emergency Rooms, and private practice. I have worked with various populations that have included adults with severe and persistent mental illness, children and adolescents in residential settings, and seniors residing in assisted living or nursing homes. I also have experience with individuals having mental health crises due to suicidal thoughts or attempts, psychosis, mania, or substance-related concerns. The bulk of my recent experience has been in crisis intervention, evaluation and assessment. 

My supervision experience includes work as a Program Coordinator for three residential treatment facilities serving adults with severe mental illness, as an Internship Program Manager for master’s level Counseling and Social Work students, as well as an international trainer of Social Workers and Counselors through the United States Peace Corps. I have also completed the Approved Clinical Supervisor 45-hour training and credential through the National Board of Certified Counselors (NBCC), as well as six hours of supervision training through the NAADAC, the Association for Addiction Professionals. I am an Approved Clinical Supervisor (ACS).

Providing clinical supervision to master’s level students and interns is a particular passion of mine. I provide supervision of your supervision if you are a clinical supervisor looking to start an internship program or take on supervisees. As an Internship Coordinator both currently and in the past, I have developed strong internship and training programs and I enjoy helping you do this too.

Together, we will have intelligent discussions about your cases, your professional orientation, how you show up as a therapist and clinical supervisor, and primarily how you can prevent burnout. I am laid back in my approach and am empowering to you as a therapist.
