I am a counseling student in another state, so my experience may not translate perfectly to Virginia, but I have found that securing quality supervision can be a challenge, and that being able to receive supervision from LCSW's and licensed psychologists has made this search much simpler. In addition, having a wider range of choices gives me room to find a good fit or seek out a supervisor with a particular speciality that I want to pursue. Limiting these options seems likely to benefit only a few LPC's and LMFT's who might see their supervision loads increase while detracting from the profession overall. Thanks for your consideration of an outside perspective.
