In Firm Opposition of this Proposal
 

As a student seeking LPC licensure, I uphold that only professional counselors should oversee the training of future counselors. This is essential in preserving our profession's distinct identity, teachings, and theories. The function of a social worker diverts from that of a counselor and thus should be separately supervised to preserve the integrity of both fields.
