Only professional counselors should supervise counselors-in-training because this is necessary to protect the unique identity of the counseling profession, including its unique teachings and theories. For the same reason, neither the Board of Psychology nor the Board of Social Work permits LPCs to supervise future psychologists or social workers. Likewise, we believe that future LPCs should be supervised by experienced members of their own profession.
