I am against the implementation of this unnecessary restriction, as it does not seem to provide more protection to the public nor further the counseling profession in any way.  So long as residents in counseling are following all Board regulations, including using the title Resident in Counseling, not calling themselves professional counselors, and advising all clients in writing (and verbally) that they are supervised by licensed professionals and are thus not practicing independently, I see no reason why advertising the availability of their counseling services would result in harm to the public.  Residents in counseling need clients so that they can become licensed professionals.  They are trained counseling clinicians with a master's degree, working toward licensure through the process of gaining clinical hours with clients and passing a licensure exam.
