MISSION STATEMENT

Our mission is to protect the public interest by regulating the practice of mental health counseling and use of the title of Licensed Marriage and Family Therapist and Licensed Professional Counselor.

The Mental Health Counselor Licensing Act was passed in 1987 to provide for the regulation of the practice of mental health counseling in the state of Louisiana and to provide for the regulation  of the use of the title "licensed professional counselor". The Louisiana law is found in Chapter 13 of Title 37 of the Louisiana Revised Statutes and comprises R.S. 37:1101-1115. Chapter 13 was amended by Act 225 of 1988, Act 415 of 1989, Act 544 of 1993, Act 1301 of 1995 and Act 834 of 1997.

Louisiana's Position on Internet Counseling

For the record, it is the position of this Board that mental health services delivered over the internet are rendered where the patient is situated.

This position is based on assertions that all counselors serving Louisiana  residents will be licensed in Louisiana and will otherwise adhere to all applicable state laws relative to the practice of mental health counseling.

This website not to be used to verify license for credentialing purposes. 

This can be done by phone, fax, e-mail or US mail.

 

The academic requirements for Licensed Marriage and Family Therapists and MFT Interns as revised on September 21, 2008, are in Chapter 33-Requirements for Licensure under Rules on the left side of this page.
