I am a Virginia LPC who has sought and attained counseling licensure in two other states (MA, WA). Having gone through the reciprocity process several times as a Virginia LPC, this proposal establishes fair "licensure by endorsement" provisions for licensed counselors who are relocating to Virginia.  There are several options given for endorsement, that include (a) 2 years of practice at the highest licensure level, (b) CCMHC credential, (c) NCC credential and CACREP accreditation of educational program. These options appear fair and are roughly consistent with the portability plan endorsed by AACSB-ACES-AMHCA-NBCC.  Note that, contrary to most critics, graduation from a CACREP accredited program is only one of three pathways to endorsement. I highly support.
