The Unmasked Therapist: Clinical Supervision for The Authentic Therapist
Supervision that empowers therapists to bring authenticity into every session
At Keystone Therapy Group, we believe the therapy you provide starts with the therapist you are. When supervision is rooted in authenticity, it lays the foundation for ethical, effective, and confident therapy.
Our Unmasked Therapist Clinical Supervision and Consultation Programs guide early career counselors and therapists through the personal work necessary to:
Resident Clinical Supervision Group
Connect with a group of licensed residents while earning supervision hours for independent Virginia Licensure (LPC or LMFT). Conversations are grounded in the person-of-the-therapist model, focusing on how your unique perspective and identity impacts how you show up for clients, coworkers, and yourself.
Summer Group led by Kim Rippy, LPC
Newly Licensed Consultation Group
Connect with a group of early-career therapists to explore conversations grounded in authenticity, professional goals, personal development, specialization, starting a practice, networking & referrals, client care, and more!

Our Clinical Supervision Programs for
Residents and Licensed Therapists
Comprehensive clinical support designed to empower therapists at every stage of their journey.
Group Supervision for Your Authentic Self
A supportive, closed group experience for therapists in their clinical residency (LPC or LMFT track). Sessions are held weekly with a clinical supervisor and 3–6 members, allowing for rich discussion, feedback, and case consultation. This program offers consistent, high-quality guidance to help you grow in confidence, skill, and professional identity.
Group supervision counts towards state licensure hours with a board approved supervisor.
Our Summer 2026 cycle will run June-August.
Sessions are 90 minutes each and $60/week.
Guidance & Growth for Newly Licensed Therapists
A closed consultation group for therapists in the first years after licensure. This is a dedicated space for case consultation and “person-of-the-therapist” work – exploring how your unique identity, values, and experiences shape your clinical presence. Develop your voice, refine your approach, and connect with others navigating the early years of independent practice.
Stay connected between meetings through our dedicated chat community for resource sharing and peer support in between meetings.
Spring cycle will run mid-January to mid-June. Sessions are 90-minutes each, meeting every-other-week, at $90/session.
Skill-Building Workshops to Enhance Your Practice
Dive deep into essential clinical and administrative skills with our focused workshops. Each session explores timely topics – from ethical challenges and treatment planning to private practice essentials and trauma-informed care.
Designed to complement group supervision/consultations, these workshops equip you with practical tools and fresh insights to enhance your clinical confidence and career growth.
Note: Workshops do not count towards clinical supervision hours. Workshops are $40 each.
Testimonials From Our Supervisees
Read what our supervisees had to say about their experience in our Unmasked Therapist: Clinical Supervision Group for Licensed Residents:
“This group has been extremely helpful and rewarding! I have loved the process-focused style.“
“This is a great place to get a different experience from supervision. My other supervision groups have been wonderful for treatment planning, interventions, and clinical work. But this one is a much needed space to process my own personal role in all of that work and ‘debrief’ about my own thoughts, feelings, perceptions during the process. I didn’t realize how needed it was!“
“What stood out most about this supervision to me was the openness and safety within the group. Kaitlyn created an environment where vulnerability felt welcomed rather than judged, allowing for honest conversations about strengths, challenges, and growth. I am grateful to have gained not only valuable insight and skills, but also a stronger sense of self-awareness and connection to others in the field.”
“This group was a place to come and be genuine and vulnerable about our experiences as resident therapists both internally and externally. Kaitlyn helps you to go deeper and look at things in a way you may not have looked at it before.”
