AMHCA Partners with Motivo for Online Clinical Supervision

Motivo, the first platform for online clinical supervision, is proud to announce its partnership with AMHCA. By partnering with Motivo—a HIPAA-compliant network for connecting therapists to clinical supervisors for live video supervision—AMHCA members seeking licensure can find a supervisor and receive a discount on their first three sessions of supervision. With the rise of telehealth, many states now allow clinical supervision hours to be obtained online through live video conferencing. That's why Rachel McCrickard, a Licensed Marriage and Family Therapist, created Motivo to provide a more accessible option for supervision.

AMHCA continues to be a leader in promoting our understanding of the role of neuroscience in the training, research, and practice of clinical mental health counseling.
