The requirement to have a licensed mental health professional provide supervision for a QMHP will put a stress on the system making the supervision virtually impossible to accomplish.  In our local area, we have very few LMHP types to provide supervision for professional licensure at this time.  Adding additional supervision of QMHP would strain the resources that are already scarce in the community.  A QMHP that has experience could provide this supervision for new QMHP without adding yet another responsibility to a LMHP to provide.  These new rules for services requiring LMHP type credentials is driving these professionals out of the field because the load is too great to handle with very little return.
