Dear Approved Licensed Professional Supervisor (ALPS):


The board would like to take this time to thank our ALPS for their dedication and expertise in providing clinical supervision to our Provisionally Licensed Counselors.

WVBEC regards the ALPS as the professionals on the frontline of the counseling profession, helping to mold and grow applicants pursuing LPC licensure. In addition to the clinical component provided by our ALPS in supervision, it is WVBEC's goal to ensure we are all on the same page in regards to the current LPC Licensing Rule and the supervision documents to be used during the supervision experience. In doing so, we have revised our supervision documents AND we are currently providing Clinical Supervision Training for our ALPS. The board would like ALL ALPS to attend one of the 3 trainings provided in 2012. Dates and locations for upcoming trainings are included below.

Please download (click on the hyperlinked titles) the 2 revised documents currently under consideration by the board.
 
 
 
 
 
Please take a few minutes and review the forms. Please email Roxanne Clay, Program Coordinator at RClay27@msn.com with your suggestions and comments by Friday, May 18th.
After May 30th, we will have all documents finalized and ready for use, including the Quarterly log sheet. These finalized forms will be emailed to all ALPS and will be available for download from the Home page of our website, at the 'Popular Forms' tab and included on the Application Packet CD's.

The board is asking all ALPS, and prospective ALPS, to attend one of the three (3) trainings presented by the board in 2012 titled WVBEC Talks About Clinical Supervision. This workshop will count towards the required 3 hours of Clinical Supervision training to renew your ALPS credential. The most recent was sponsored by WVCA in which 60+ ALPS were in attendance. The next 2 trainings are scheduled for:

May 11, 2012 as part of the WVLPCA Spring Conference to be held at the Charleston Civic Center.

November 2, 2012 as part of the WVCA Fall Conference to be held in Flatwoods.

Please check the 'Approved CE' tab on our website for Registration information.
One final request. Please double check your ALPS contact information on our website at the 'Supervisor Information' tab, then 'Current ALPS'. The list of ALPS are grouped by County and the work phone number and email address that is listed feeds directly from the LPC database. If not correct, please email Roxanne Clay at RClay27@msn.com  with your updated information.
 

 
On behalf of the board, we thank you for all you do!
