The fine print most trackers miss
New York-specific rules
These are the rules that catch LMFT associates off-guard at submission. ClearPath flags each one in real time as you log.
- Experience completed in New York must be under a limited permit or licensure-qualifying program; other jurisdictions can count when the experience was completed legally under equivalent requirements
- 36 hours CE every 3 years
