Bad Idea
 

Hello,

Thank you for taking the time to read my comment. It is my opinion that this would be detrimental to the mental health community. Years of practice alone should not qualify anyone to be a supervisor. For example, someone who holds a doctorate in psychology but is not a licensed psychologist should not be supervised by someone with a bachelor's degree. This simply does not make sense.

I implore the board to reject this petition.

 

Thank you.
