Under the old Rules and Regulations, I began my supervision with a Board Certified Psychiatrist. Can I continue to be supervised by a psychiatrist after January 1, 2000 when the new Practice Act goes into effect?
The new Practice Act requires supervision by an LCSW. If you had already entered into a supervisory contract with a Board Certified Psychiatrist prior to January 1, 2000, you will be allowed to continue. No new supervisory contracts with psychiatrists will be approved consistent with the requirements of our new law.
