I also had a counselor who supported me in seeking training, and respected my right to informed choice. At that point, I was still researching, and we did not justify my decision to her supervisors.

We have had a few conversations, and she mentioned the need to write a justification letter to her supervisor, and that we could do that on Friday. However, a friend told me that VR is required to provide a decision in writing, so I want to write out a justification before I even see my counselor. Does anyone have suggestions for writing justifications?
