The opposition offers comments that seem uninformed and lacking in professional counselor identity.  Unfortunately, for them, identity matters.  Identity is connected to training.  Counselor training and psychologist training overlap but are also distinct.  Professional affiliations, history, and professional orientation differ.  I wonder if the same people who are so against this are advocating for a more inclusive APA?  I wonder if they are upset because APA programs DO NOT hire CACREP PhD graduates?  This is an attempt at turf grabbing by those against.
