Supervisor Qualifications
 

LMHP's and LMHP-E's have been able to facilitate parent training and family systems therapy successfully within the EPSDT program. LMHP's and LMHP-E's have expertise in addressing family dynamics and building structure and the capacity within the family to embrace and sustain change. A solid understanding of Autism and other developmental disabilities, along with strong technical knowledge of ABA, should be requisites for any supervisors of the EPSDT program. We believe that both BCBA's and LMHP's/LMHP-E's have much to offer.

Thank you,

Monika Isip, LPC, ATR
