Our mission is to provide accessible, affordable clinical supervision.

For therapists, getting your degree is the easy part – it’s becoming licensed that is hard. We are on a mission to increase the number of licensed mental health providers in our world by providing accessible, affordable clinical supervision, virtually.

The Motivo Story

Our founder, Rachel, created Motivo after spending a year driving two hours to get to the closest supervisor. Rachel knew there had to be a better way to complete her supervision requirements and, a few years later, Motivo was born.

Motivo (mō-tea-vō) means “foundation” in Portuguese and we chose the name with intention. We believe clinical supervision is the foundation of a therapist’s career, and that starts with having access to the right supervisor, not just the one closest by.

We are excited to build a world where supervision hours aren’t simply a box you check on the road toward licensure, but rather a formative experience that guides and develops you into the clinician you want to become.

Don’t just take our word for it...
