Getting clinical psychology license as an LMFT
Hello! I have a bit of a conundrum. I have been licensed as an LMFT in California for over 12 years. I have finished a doctoral program that qualifies me to pursue an License in Clinical Psychology. However, I already have a thriving private practice. It seems that my supervisor must work in the same setting as me and I'm not allowed to be paid as an Associate.
So, what should I do? Am I in a major bind? Do I have to see all my clients as an Clinical Psychologist Associate, with them paying my supervisor, or can I continue to be paid as an LMFT while accruing hours for those sessions?
Finally, if we both worked for the same company, would I then be able to see them under my LMFT and Clinical Psychologist Associate while my company pays my supervisor?
Once again, this is in California. I forgot to include it in the subject. Sorry.
