Many professionals practice without being fully knowledgeable of the Board Rules and Code of Ethics for their license. As mental health professionals, we are solely responsible from the time of licensure for being familiar with and adhering to these guidelines for our profession. Through this training, participants will identify their own pitfalls and how to make necessary changes to avoid board complaints.

For the online training option, the training is offered with a video and a handout that includes a matching format for the LPC, LMFT, and LSW Board Rules and Code of Ethics.

Our current video will be redone on May 3, 2019 to include the new 2019 LPC and LMFT Board Rules. In the meantime, we are including an extra video and handout to be knowledgeable of all of the board rules changes for 2019.
