Mala’s Dedicated Supervisors
Guiding, Mentoring, and Elevating Our Clinicians
At Mala Child & Family Institute, our supervisors play a vital role in shaping the next generation of trauma-informed, neurodiversity-affirming, and culturally sensitive clinicians. With deep clinical expertise, compassionate leadership, and a passion for mentorship, our supervisors guide trainees and early-career providers, ensuring they receive the highest level of support, feedback, and growth opportunities. Together, they uphold Mala’s commitment to excellence — not only in client care but in clinician development and lifelong learning.
