How Virtual Clinical Supervision is Changing the Field: An Interview with Rachel Ledbetter, LMFT
Curt and Katie chat with Rachel Ledbetter, LMFT, CEO and Co-Founder of Motivo, about how virtual supervision is transforming therapist training and professional development. We explore how technology can remove barriers for prelicensed clinicians, improve the supervision experience, and create space for mentorship beyond administrative oversight. Rachel also shares insights on the future of AI in mental health and what supervisors can do to better support early career therapists.
Guest Bio:
Rachel Ledbetter is the CEO and Co-Founder of Motivo Health, a pioneering platform dedicated to transforming the landscape of mental health care by facilitating virtual clinical supervision for behavioral health professionals. As a Licensed Marriage and Family Therapist (LMFT), Rachel's personal experiences navigating the licensure process have profoundly influenced her mission to remove barriers for aspiring therapists. Through Motivo, she continues to make a lasting impact by supporting the next generation of therapists and ensuring that quality mental health services are accessible to all.
Key Takeaways:
Supervision should focus on developing a clinician’s unique identity—not just administrative tasks.
Virtual supervision increases access and continuity, especially for rural and underserved areas.
Motivo actively tracks licensure requirements and verifies supervisor qualifications.
AI can ease therapist burdens (e.g., documentation) but shouldn’t be used to raise productivity quotas.
Supervisors are more effective when they support both professional development and self-of-the-therapist work.
