Supervision from a therapist who still sees clients
Individual supervision at Colorado LPC Supervision, part of My Denver Therapy, is one-on-one supervision with a working therapist for $150 per supervision hour. It’s online by default, with in-person meetings available in Denver, Lone Tree or Greenwood Village. LPCCs and MFTCs need at least 50 individual hours at the 2,000-hour minimum. Bring your hardest cases. Your supervisor sees clients every week and will tell you what they’d do.

Who is individual supervision for?
We provide individual supervision to Colorado candidates working toward three licenses:
- LPCCs working toward the LPC
- MFTCs working toward the LMFT
- ADDCs working toward the LAC
How many individual supervision hours do you need in Colorado?
LPCCs and MFTCs need at least 25 individual supervision hours for every 1,000 practice hours, which is 50 hours at the 2,000-hour minimum. Colorado counts individual supervision as supervision given to one person at a time.
| License | Individual minimum per 1,000 practice hours | Remaining hours can be | Source |
|---|---|---|---|
| LPC | 25 of 50 | Triadic or group | C.R.S. 12-245-604 |
| LMFT | 25 of 50 | Group | 4 CCR 736-1.14 |
Addiction counselor candidates work under different rules, which we cover on our LAC requirements page.
What happens in individual supervision?
Individual supervision gives you uninterrupted time on your own cases and your own licensing questions. Most supervisees use it for some mix of these:
- Talking through difficult cases and treatment decisions
- Legal and ethical questions that come up in your practice
- Tracking your hours and getting your DORA paperwork right
- Working out where you want your career to go, including private practice
What does individual supervision cost in Colorado?
Individual supervision at Colorado LPC Supervision is $150 per supervision hour, with no packages or required combos. The 50-hour individual minimum comes to $7,500. Over 24 months, that’s about two individual hours and about $315 a month. If you did all 100 supervision hours individually, the total would be $15,000. Moving 50 of those hours to group at $50 each brings the total to $10,000. Our rates page has the details.
Should you choose individual or group supervision?
Many LPCCs and MFTCs use both, because Colorado requires individual hours and group hours cost less. If you’d rather not join a group, you can do all your hours individually.
- Individual supervision works well when you want more time on your own cases or your own career questions.
- Online group supervision is $50 per supervision hour and lets you hear how other candidates handle their cases.

Common questions about individual supervision
Can individual supervision be online in Colorado?
Yes. Colorado allows individual supervision for the LPC and LMFT in person or by telesupervision.
Can I have a supervisor here and another at work?
Yes. Colorado’s LPC and MFT rules both say supervised practice may involve more than one supervisor. Each one needs to qualify and keep records of the hours they supervised.
Does triadic supervision count as individual supervision?
No. For LPC candidates, triadic supervision counts toward the hours that can be triadic or group. The MFT rule accepts only individual and group supervision.
Can I do individual supervision with you and group supervision elsewhere?
Yes. We don’t require you to do both group and individual supervision with us.
