Pay It Forward: Becoming a Clinical Supervisor

Rachel Ledbetter is the CEO and Co-Founder of Motivo Health, the first HIPAA-compliant video platform for virtual clinical supervision. As a Licensed Marriage and Family Therapist (LMFT), Rachel’s own challenges navigating licensure sparked her mission to remove barriers for aspiring therapists.

Before founding Motivo, Rachel worked with underserved communities, including providing therapy to chronically homeless adults on Skid Row in Los Angeles and later supporting families through Georgia HOPE.

Dr. Carla Smith is a leading voice in clinical supervision, provider-first workforce solutions, and continuing education. As the Chief Clinical Officer at Motivo, she develops learning opportunities and best practices that enhance clinical quality, compliance, and supervision in behavioral health.

Her work explores sustainable, high-quality supervision models that promote provider well-being and address workforce retention.
