Renee A. Romine, LCSW‑S

I was born and raised in Texas and have lived in several corners of this state. Social work has given me a career I love, and supervision is how I give some of it back — to the next generation of clinicians, and to the Texans they will go on to serve.

Nearly two decades in behavioral health: inpatient and outpatient therapist, Director of multiple clinical programs both for‑profit and non‑profit, and now individual practice. I am trained in EMDR (certification imminent), DBT skills, CBT and REBT, and trauma‑focused modalities including TF‑CBT and CPT, and I work from a trauma‑informed lens.

The requirements

What Texas asks of you

The numbers look daunting written down. Spread across two years, they are entirely doable.

3,000
Hours of supervised clinical practice

Your actual clinical work in the field, accumulated over the supervision period.

100
Hours of direct supervision

Time with your clinical supervisor — the group hours you'll spend with me.

24
Full months, minimum

Supervision cannot be compressed. Two years is the floor, not the target.

The hours you work

Roughly 30 hours a week in a clinical setting will finish 3,000 hours inside the 24‑month minimum. A minimum of 4 hours per week in a clinical setting is required to count at all.

Part‑time work is welcome — it simply extends the timeline beyond two years.

What counts as clinical work

Assessing, diagnosing, and treating mental health and substance use conditions.

Please don't count yourself out. Plenty of roles qualify that don't look like it on paper — we can review your position together in your consultation.

The groups

How supervision runs

Step one

Initial consultation

A conversation to be sure the group and your specific needs are a genuine fit before anything is signed.

Step two

Agreement & plan

Supervision agreement, clinical supervision plan, and a template letter for your employer.

Step three

Twice‑monthly groups

Two hours per meeting, two meetings a month, with two to six colleagues alongside you.

Step four

Exam & licensure

We prepare for the LCSW exam together, and submit to the Board at the end of supervision.

What we actually discuss

Defining your therapeutic framework and orientation
Learning and practising therapeutic modalities
DSM‑5 diagnosis and symptom presentation
Clinical skill development
Preparing for the LCSW exam

Online, across Texas

Groups meet primarily online, so where you live is not a barrier. If enough supervisees form a group locally, we can meet in a hybrid arrangement.

Group, with room for individual

Most hours are group hours. Some individual hours are available when your situation calls for them.

Paperwork

Less than you fear

Nothing goes to the Board until the end of supervision. In the meantime, you and I each keep records of supervision hours, clinical hours worked toward supervision, and topics covered.

I provide a template letter for your employer to agree to outside supervision — you don't have to write that email yourself.
