LMFT-Limited Permit supervision
in New York.
New York has one of the most diverse pre-licensed therapist communities in the country, and one of the most underserved when it comes to queer-affirming supervision. I hold an active LMFT license in New York and offer telehealth supervision that meets NYSED requirements while centering your full identity in the room.

The Approach
Two frameworks.
One integrated practice.
Every supervisory relationship I hold is grounded in two frameworks that I believe belong together: the Universal Design for Learning (UDL) and Buddhist Psychology.
UDL means supervision is built around how you learn, not a fixed template you have to fit yourself into. Multiple means of engagement, representation, and expression aren't accommodations; they're the design.
Buddhist Psychology brings impermanence, non-attachment, and compassionate awareness into the clinical frame, for your clients and for you. We hold the work lightly without holding it carelessly.
Universal Design for Learning
Supervision structured around your learning style, not a one-size-fits-all model. Flexible engagement, multiple modalities, and a pace that serves your development.
Buddhist Psychology
Mindfulness, impermanence, and compassionate non-attachment as clinical tools, for working with clients and for sustaining yourself in the work.
Queer & Trans Affirming
Identity-affirming supervision isn't a specialty add-on. It's the foundation. You don't have to translate yourself here.

Your Supervisor
Mx. Love C. Dialogos,
LMFT
I'm a queer, genderless womxn (she/they) and licensed Marriage & Family Therapist. I'm licensed in New York (NY-002307) and hold AAMFT Approved Supervisor status.
My supervision practice is grounded in UDL and Buddhist Psychology, because I believe the most effective clinical work happens when clinicians feel genuinely seen and supported, not just evaluated.
I built this practice because the supervision I needed didn't exist when I was pre-licensed. I don't want that to be your story.
