(1)Licensure issued under KRS 335.330 shall be renewed annually upon payment of a

fee to be established by administrative regulation promulgated by the board not to

exceed one hundred fifty dollars ($150).

(2)On January 1, 1999, all persons authorized to use the title "certified marriage and

family therapist" shall be deemed "licensed marriage and family therapists" until the

date of their second annual license renewal. As of that date, each formerly certified

licensee seeking license renewal shall provide the board with verification of

education or experience relating to psychopathology, as determined by

administrative regulations promulgated by the board, to include:

(a)Coursework in psychopathology;

(b)Supervised experience with a focus on diagnosis; or

(c)Completion of equivalent continuing education units relating to

psychopathology.

This subsection shall not apply to license renewals for those persons also licensed

or certified by another mental health profession which authorizes diagnosis within

its scope of practice.

(3)A ninety

(90)day grace period shall be granted during which time licensees may

continue to practice and may renew their licenses upon payment of the renewal fee

plus a late renewal fee as promulgated by administrative regulation of the board.

Any license not renewed during this period shall expire. The board may reinstate an

expired license within three

(3)years of its expiration date upon payment of the

renewal fee and satisfaction of other requirements.

(4)A suspended license is subject to expiration and termination and shall be renewed

as provided in this chapter. Renewal shall not entitle the licensee to engage in the

practice of marriage and family therapy until the suspension has ended, or is

otherwise removed by the board and the right to practice is restored by the board.

(5)A revoked license is subject to expiration or termination but may not be renewed. If

it is reinstated, the licensee shall pay the renewal fee as set forth in subsection

(1)of

this section.

(6)A person who fails to reinstate his or her license within three

(3)years of its

termination may not have it renewed, restored, reissued, or reinstated. A person may

apply for and obtain a new license by meeting the current requirements of this

chapter.

(7)The board shall require that a person applying for renewal or reinstatement of

licensure show evidence of completion of continuing education as prescribed by the

board by administrative regulations, not to exceed twenty

(20)clock hours per

renewal period.
