Disagree
 

I completely disagree with this proposal! Most doctoral students have very little clinical experience already, so to permit them to supervise with even less than is required (2 years is not much time all-in-all!) would not serve our profession nor Residents. Although doctoral students MAY have more supervision training, that training MUST be accompanied with significant clinical experience to understand the depth and capacity of the counseling process.
