Recently someone on our state list serve was horrified by a poor quality attempt at psychological assessment done by an LPC. The psychologist wanted to take some action. However, through the discussion on the list, we learned that a few yrs ago the state courts protected the rights of LPC's and MSW's to do such reports.
Terrible.
