To Whom It May Concern:

I am strongly opposed to the proposed regulations of LPC and LMFT only supervisors. Although I plan to prcatice in the state of Utah, this affects the entire field of counseling. It is difficult enough for someone to seek licensure as a counselor, and limiting the number of people that can supervise their hours is hurting this process even more. It will impede MANY people from being able to become a licensed counselor, and this is the opposite of what we should be working towards at this time. Additionally, I know from experience, both personal and professional, that some of the most talented and amazing therapists and counselors are non LPC or LMFT, and this regulation would be denying people the phenomenal experience of working under these counselors. 

I sincerely hope these regulations are reconsidered.
