Supervision

For pre-licensed and provisionally licensed professionals seeking to decolonize mental health and disrupt harmful practices that have been handed down in academia

With Alyssa Cedillo, MA, LPC-S, RPT-S™, IP-CST


I offer supervision to a limited number of pre-licensed and provisionally licensed professionals seeking a relationship grounded in trust, transparency, and autonomy. My supervision models center on openness, humility, adaptability, relational power and awareness and inclusion. In the process of decolonizing mental health, I will work with you to set reasonable goals and case loads so that you are not burned out by the time you are seeking full licensure. We will work together to disrupt internalized systems of oppression so that we can do the work of disrupting external oppressive systems.

You have dedicated enough time and energy into becoming a competent provider, you deserve to find joy in the work that you do!

I have over 15 years of experience in working with children, adolescents/adults and families in clinic, RTC, inpatient & outpatient settings. Throughout my career, I’ve gained extensive experience with diverse backgrounds, developmental issues, neurodivergence, attachment issues, chronic illness, and a relational cultural clinical approach. As a Registered Play Therapist Supervisor, I focus on incorporating play therapy into my work with adults.

I believe that before we can help others process, understand and heal intergenerational trauma, we as providers need to first do that work ourselves. I incorporate these skills into supervision—I am not your therapist, but I will help you to find the skills needed to be a competent healer. 

As a supervisee, you are not a number to me. You are the future of our healing profession and how we make a continued impact within the community we serve and the mental health profession at large. We rise together.

WHO WE ARE

Tree of Life Counseling Center is a practice known for disrupting systems of oppression while engaging in ethical healing practices. Each of us is part of this change as social justice advocates and mental health professionals. 

As providers we may not have known some of the practices that were taught to us in school could be damaging. With this new awareness comes responsibility to take action to ensure these practices no longer impact our clients or our communities and are not passed down to future providers.

We offer a safe, equitable, and welcoming environment for all. We strive to be more than an optical ally, believing that each of us has the power to rewrite some of the negative or damaging experiences the community has experienced when engaging with other mental health providers who may not have taken into account your individual lived experience.
