Clinical Supervision
A supportive space to reflect, grow, and stay grounded in your practice for clinicians.
Supervision is about having a safe space where questions are welcome. A space to slow down, reflect, and reconnect with why you do this work in the first place. It’s a chance to talk through the hard stuff, make sense of complex moments, and stay grounded in your values, especially when things feel messy.
You don’t need to have all the answers. You just need somewhere to think things through.
Why Supervision Matters
Supervision gives you room to pause and take stock. To ask better questions and get clear on what matters.
Working with Elizabeth
Elizabeth Nardella, RSW, RCC, offers clinical supervision for Registered Social Workers and Registered Clinical Counsellors in BC.
Elizabeth’s supervision style is curious and collaborative. She values process over perfection and brings both clinical insight and practical grounding.
She brings over a decade of experience working with youth, families, and trauma, and draws from narrative and somatic practices to support meaningful, grounded conversations about the work.
Expect honest reflection, space to think, and a focus on staying grounded in your work.
Supervision Sessions may include:
Case Consultation
Transcript or Audio review
Reflection on Therapeutic Stance
Exploration of Professional Identity and Ethics.
Supervision with Elizabeth makes room for the complexities of your work, the things that don’t always have easy answers.
Focus Areas
She’s especially drawn to supporting clinicians who are:
Working in high-stress environments or systems-involved care;
Navigating the grey areas of ethics, scope, and sustainability;
Trying to stay grounded in the face of clients who are struggling with trauma, grief, or big emotions;
Looking to bring narrative and somatic practices together in real-life sessions;
Wanting support with documentation, or finding their voice in notes;
Struggling with overfunctioning or emotional overload;
Feeling pulled between care and capacity
Supervision is where the messy middle gets to be seen.
What to Expect
Supervision isn’t about getting it “right.” It’s about being honest about what’s happening in the room and in your own body. You don’t need to arrive with tidy notes or perfect phrasing. You just need a place that holds what’s hard with care and clarity.
Working with Elizabeth, you can expect:
No pressure to perform, just support for the real work you’re doing;
Sessions where it’s okay to say “I don’t know”;
Honest conversations around burnout, boundaries, ethics, and scope;
Freedom to bring in transcripts or recordings (with consent) if helpful;
Respect for what you already bring, and help notice what’s getting in your way;
Flexibility for in-person or virtual sessions, depending on your needs;
Elizabeth has completed advanced clinical supervision training (Levels 1 & 2) and is currently working toward becoming an Approved Clinical Supervisor (ACS-C). She’s especially passionate about supporting clinicians who work with youth and families, and those navigating the challenges of private practice.
Still Not Sure if Supervision is What You Need?
That’s okay. You don’t have to be certain to reach out. Supervision can look like steady support through a tough season, a space to talk things through, check in with yourself, and not feel so alone in it all.
You’re allowed to ask for a space that feels safe enough to be real. Let’s see if this one works for you.

Land and Practice
Elizabeth’s work takes place on the shared traditional and unceded territories of the Musqueam, Squamish, Stolo, Tsleil-Waututh Nations, and Coast Salish Peoples. She holds deep respect for these lands and the communities who have cared for them since time immemorial, and reflects often on what it means to practice as a settler here.
