INDIVIDUAL AASECT SUPERVISION

For Clinicians Ready to Embody a More Expansive, Liberating, and Soul-Aligned Approach to Sex Therapy

Whether you are just beginning your journey toward AASECT certification or are deep in the process and seeking meaningful guidance, individual supervision with Jacqueline offers a spacious, heart-centered container to explore your clinical questions, sharpen your skills, and step more fully into the sex therapist you are becoming.

This is not checkbox supervision. This is supervision for the clinician who longs to move beyond pathologizing frameworks and toward a model that honors the wisdom of the body, centers liberation, and celebrates cultural, spiritual, and erotic aliveness.

With two decades of experience as a bilingual, bicultural therapist, AASECT-Certified Supervisor, and media consultant on sexual health, Jacqueline brings a uniquely integrative approach to supervision—one that bridges academic rigor with embodied presence, clinical strategy with ancestral knowing, and science with soul.

Whether you work primarily with BIPOC, LGBTQ+, or spiritually-inclined clients—or are yearning to explore how to ethically and confidently hold space for sexuality, trauma, pleasure, and identity—this space invites your full self to be present and supported.

What to Expect:

  • Customized supervision that aligns with your clinical experience, cultural values, and areas of growth

  • Guidance on AASECT competencies, ethical dilemmas, case conceptualization, and documentation

  • Support for integrating decolonizing, feminist, somatic, and systemic approaches into your work

  • Mentorship that honors your voice, intuition, and ancestral wisdom as central to your evolution

  • Bilingual/Bicultural supervision available (English/Spanish/Spanglish)

This is your invitation to claim a style of supervision that honors both the science of sexuality and the sacredness of your path as a healer.

Let’s Begin Your Supervision Journey

As a supervisor and mentor, my commitment is to walk alongside clinicians as they deepen their capacity to hold space for the full spectrum of human sexual experience. I support future AASECT Certified Sex Therapists in cultivating the clinical skill, presence, and discernment needed to do this work with depth, integrity, and soul.

The clinicians I supervise are often already deeply attuned and devoted to their clients’ healing. My role is to help refine that attunement—to expand their understanding of sexual health through a sex-positive, trauma-informed, culturally responsive, and spiritually grounded lens. Together, we explore how to sit with complexity: with the silence after a client names a secret, the tremble of shame when someone discloses a long-held fear, the sacredness of pleasure, and the courage it takes to untangle relational and sexual trauma.

I believe that sex therapy is not just a clinical specialty—it’s a calling. One that invites clinicians to engage in their own growth and healing, to confront internalized narratives, and to become more embodied and awake in the process.

Supervision with me is never about checking boxes. It is about becoming the kind of therapist who can truly meet others in the most tender, transformative spaces—where the body meets the story, where desire meets dignity, and where intimacy becomes a path to wholeness.

As a Primary & Secondary Certified AASECT Supervisor

I am passionate about mentoring others in the field of sex therapy and appreciate longstanding relationships with those I have worked with.  I approach supervision intuitively and tailor each session, and the overall experience of the supervisory journey to best meet the unique needs of each supervisee. 

I help my supervisees understand their ethical responsibilities, how to conceptualize their cases, and how to structure a treatment plan and intervention application.  I also celebrate their strengths while identifying the areas to improve.  Compassionate yet challenging, positive yet direct.

I work from a trauma-informed, systemic, and spiritual framework.  I supervise from a holistic and integrative approach, having presented at the Annual AASECT Conference several times on the use of movement, mind/body connection, and body-heart-mind-spiritual integration in sex therapy.  I was mentored and trained by Gina Ogden and am an active member of the 4-D Network.  

I use the general supervision perspective of person-of-the-therapist and strength-based theoretical lenses to help my supervisees expand upon their learning as evolving sex therapists.  It is essential for me to help supervisees work through their sex therapy cases with their theoretical perspective and life experience.  By doing so, I help her supervisees grow into the sex therapists they desire to become, and best serve the clients.

My highest intention is to empower clinicians on their journey of becoming sex therapists by providing a safe dialogue space where unconscious bias can be unraveled and updated through decolonial and intersectional lenses, ensuring that my supervisees are challenged by experiencing and conceptualizing cases in a variety of ways. 

Embarking on the journey to becoming an AASECT Certified Sex Therapist is a profound and transformative experience. This path is about acquiring specialized knowledge or clinical skills personal growth, and deep self-exploration. A key part of this journey is the relationship and mentorship you build with your supervisor. A good supervisor doesn’t just guide you through the certification process—they provide a safe and supportive space for you to examine your own issues and limiting beliefs around gender and sexuality.

As therapists, we recognize that we cannot guide our clients to places we haven’t explored ourselves. The journey to becoming a sex therapist offers a unique opportunity to confront and heal our own biases and discomforts, enabling us to serve our clients with greater empathy and authenticity. A skilled supervisor acts as a mirror, reflecting the areas where we need to grow and encouraging us to challenge our assumptions compassionately and non-judgmentally.

The certification process changes you both professionally and personally, deepening your understanding of human sexuality and expanding your capacity for connection and intimacy. Your supervisor plays a vital role in this transformation, helping you navigate the complexities of this field with wisdom, humility, and grace.

As you begin this journey, remember that it’s as much about your own evolution as it is about serving others. Embrace the challenges and growth that come with it, and trust that with the right mentorship, you will emerge not only as a skilled therapist but as a more whole and authentic person.

Alignment with My Approach

My supervision style is relational, somatic, intersectional, and depth-oriented. This work invites self-inquiry, curiosity, and courage. I welcome supervisees who are open to integrating body-based, spiritual, and decolonial frameworks into their clinical work.

Why Work With Me?

Supervision with me is not just about meeting requirements—it’s about becoming the kind of therapist you were always meant to be. I bring a decolonial, feminist, and somatic lens that honors both the science and the soul of sex therapy. As a bilingual (English/Spanish) and bicultural clinician, I understand the nuanced realities of working across cultures, languages, and systems of oppression. My supervision is rooted in a deep commitment to serving BIPOC and historically marginalized communities with care, curiosity, and cultural responsiveness.

I’m passionate about supporting therapists who are ready to integrate sexuality, spirituality, and psychotherapy into their work in ways that feel authentic, liberating, and alive. Because the path to becoming a sex therapist is as much personal as it is professional, I hold space for your transformation—your questions, your growth edges, your power, and your healing. Together, we create supervision that goes beyond the clinical and into the sacred.
