Navigating the Road to Licensure

The road to licensure is paved with good intentions and ever-evolving regulations. This presentation will provide pre-licensees and supervisors with an overview of the licensure process, including the new supervision regulations that went into effect in 2022. Topics will include: supervised experience requirements for MFT applicants, supervisor qualifications, and licensing examinations. 

Participants will gain a deeper understanding of the licensure process for marriage and family therapists, the roles and responsibilities of pre-licensees and supervisors, and how to navigate common challenges these parties often encounter. 

Participants will be able to:

1. Identify the specific criteria Pre-Licensed therapists must meet for the Board to approve their hours (e.g. how many weeks of individual or triadic supervision pre-licensees must complete, how many direct counseling hours they must obtain, etc.).
2. Distinguish between the two 90-day rules and the two six-year rules.
3. State how these rules impact the licensure process.
4. Identify the work settings in which MFT trainees and associates can accumulate supervised experience hours.
5. Identify the eligibility requirements for, and specific responsibilities of supervisors.
