Mental Health Supervision Registry

Act 117 (2022) requires OPR to maintain a registry of licensed mental health professionals who are available to serve as supervisors for mental health professionals in training. Supervisors and individuals engaged in supervised practice must comply with all other requirements for supervision, as set forth in the Vermont statutes and regulations. It is the responsibility of the supervisor and the supervisee to read and comply with the statutes and administrative rules for your profession.
