A regulation looking for a problem...that doesn't exist
 

Without sound empirical evidence for doing so, limiting supervision to LPC's only is unnecessarily restrictive. I live in a rural area of Virginia that is underserved. I met with the director of the county social services agency a while back and during our conversation learned that they are already challenged in finding supervsion for staff - why make it harder.
