The fine print most trackers miss
Colorado-specific rules
These are the rules that catch LMFT associates off-guard at submission. ClearPath flags each one in real time as you log.
- Candidate registration or another qualifying Colorado mental-health credential must be in place before post-degree hours count
- At least 1,000 of the 1,500 face-to-face direct client contact hours must be with couples and families for diagnosis, assessment, and intervention
Built for Colorado
How ClearPath handles Colorado LMFT
- Live rule validation. Every entry is checked against the 2,000-hour total, the 1,500-hour direct-client minimum, and the supervision ratios at the time you log it.
- Auto-filled official form. When you're ready to apply, ClearPath fills the official form of the Division of Professions and Occupations (DPO) from your records. It is the same PDF the board accepts, not a reproduction.
- Supervisor portal. Your supervisor logs in, reviews your weekly entries, and e-signs without printing. No paper PDFs, no scanning.
- AI hour reviewer. Ask plain-language questions about your log ("what week did I miss a supervision hour?") and get the exact answer in seconds.
- $25/year. One quarter the price of the legacy tracker.
