I do not see concern with having partial LCSW supervision for counseling residents, especially if it were in collaboration or with support of LPC supervision. There are many advantages for new counselors if this petition were to pass. I feel the fields share vast knowledge and can benefit from the perspectives on any differences, with the assistance of supervision from same degree supervisors. This can allow for leniency in choice of supervisor, expand access to training in subcategories in the field, and support interdisciplinary partnership. I believe the important aspect of enlarging the supervision pool is to remain firm in ethics, education, and competency for supervision. Ensuring that there are ethics in understanding supervisory competency and limits in training LPC residents, whether you have an LPC or LCSW, is the only factor that should be reviewed. This includes ensuring that all supervisory parties are trained in clinical practice to the extent that it is appropriate to train LPCs. The focus needs to be in the ways that professional counselors can increase skills and knowledge within the field, and by denying social workers a role in supervision is to denounce their schooling and capacity.
