BILL NUMBER:S4964 TITLE OF BILL: An act to amend the education law, in relation to the duration of limited permits for metal health practitioners PURPOSE: This bill would extend limited permits issued by the State Education Department (SED) for mental health practitioners SUMMARY OF PROVISIONS: This bill standardizes the two year timeframe for limited permits issued to all mental health practitioners and allows such limited permits, at the discretion of SED, to be renewed for a maximum of two additional one year periods. JUSTIFICATION: Graduates from programs leading to a license as one of the four mental health practitioners (creative arts, marriage and family, mental health counselors and psychotherapy) must acquire post graduate experience under supervision in order to become licensed. Practice under supervision is allowed via a limited permit which is issued by the NYS Education Department. Graduates working under the permit have a "limited" amount of time to acquire the necessary supervised hours.
