Opposed to CACREP only requirements
 

The need for counseling and psychotherapy is too great to limit the practice of counseling in Virginia to graduates of CACREP programs.  What is more,, there are many outstanding NON-CACREP programs in Virginia (as well as my own nearby state of Maryland) that are no less rigorous than their CACREP counterparts.
