Please do not make Virginia's Professional Counselor licensure policy exclusive to CACREP school graduates. I understand that movement is underway to essentially discredit those of us who attended very reputable universities, earned our degrees, completed our clinical hours, and maybe have been in practice successfully for many years. To not allow us to practice in Virginia is harmful to the population of the State as well as to many competent practitioners.It also limits immigration to the state from those counselors who are doing well and would like to relocate from a neighboring or far-off state. This proposed policy is not helpful to anyone, and I request that it not go into effect.
