The fine print most trackers miss
Michigan-specific rules
These are the rules that catch LMFT associates off-guard at submission. ClearPath flags each one in real time as you log.
- At least half of both practicum and post-degree direct client contact hours must include families, couples, or other family subsystems physically present in the therapy room
- If the 1,000 post-degree direct-client-contact hours are completed in Michigan, the candidate should hold a Michigan educational limited license while accruing them
- Michigan does not require continuing education for renewal
Built for Michigan
How ClearPath handles Michigan LMFT
- Live rule validation. Every entry is checked against the 1,300-hour total, the 1,000-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 Michigan Board of Marriage and Family Therapy 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.
