The Counseling Landscape Workshop Series
Everything we teach is based around The Counseling Landscape. That's the body of information you need to know in order to run a successful practice, a lot of which is required by BHEC. Completing this series of workshops will put you in the top 5% of all mental health counselors trying to run a practice today and it will put you on a firm, safe foundation. Oh, and each of these workshops is a stand-alone event; you do not have to take the entire series to earn ce credit. Pick one and let's get started!
TCL Pt 1 - BHEC, Complaint Process & The Academy
Please Note: You'll receive 7 CE hours for this course. Because of the type of content you may count them towards your ethics requirements, supervisor refresher hours, or simply as elective hours. Your choice!
In this first in the series workshop we're going to cover some pretty important foundational aspects of the counseling profession, all stuff you didn't learn in school but vital to your personal and professional safety. We call that agenda, "The Counseling Landscape".
Over the years we've developed a lot of material designed specifically to Protect, Equip, and Defend you and your practice from those people out there who would all too easily take it from you, or be happy to see you lose everything you've worked so hard to achieve. I know that from personal experience. What happened to me doesn't have to happen to you and studying The Counseling Landscape with Phillip and me will be your biggest effort in keeping that from happening.

TCL Pt 2 - State Codes and Marketing Your Practice
Please Note: You'll receive 7 CE hours for this course. Because of the type of content you may count them towards your ethics requirements, supervisor refresher hours, or simply as elective hours. Your choice!
In this second installment of the workshop series we'll cover another large slice of The Counseling Landscape pie. BHEC requires that you maintain a working knowledge of a fairly stout list of both State and Federal laws outside of your licensing rulebook, so we're going to tackle about half of that list in the first half of this workshop.
The balance we will cover in the third workshop. For a much needed change of pace we'll cover a list of critical things you need to know in order to market your practice and, if you're a supervisor, teach it to the next generation of associates. Click the link and read more about it.
TCL Pt 3 - More State Codes and More Practice Marketing
Please Note: You'll receive 7 CE hours for this course. Because of the type of content you may count them towards your ethics requirements, supervisor refresher hours, or simply as elective hours. Your choice!
Our 3rd workshop in this series will finish the Federal and State Codes review that we began in workshop #2. Then we'll spend the afternoon talking about additional things you should consider in the marketing of your practice as well as the specific marketing of your associates. Not a supervisor? Don't worry, these sessions will absolutely apply to the marketing of you, and the rest of your practice.
TCL Pt 4 - Ch 611 Release of Records and Professional Forms
Please Note: You'll receive 7 CE hours for this course. Because of the type of content you may count them towards your ethics requirements, supervisor refresher hours, or simply as elective hours. Your choice!
So, we've packaged our very popular course, Chapter 611 and The Release of Records with newly minted material, Professional Counseling Forms, which includes the most popular forms needed to run a counseling practice in 2022. Click the link and see how we can help you to not be someone's next release of records complaint!
TCL Pt 5 - The Optimal Practice
Please Note: You'll receive 7 CE hours for this course. Because of the type of content you may count them towards your ethics requirements, supervisor refresher hours, or simply as elective hours. Your choice!
So you want to own and run your own practice (business)? Good, then you should know there's far more to it than renting a 10x10 and buying a cheap liability policy. Running any business, including a mental health practice, should be based on numbers and that's what you'll get in this workshop. Real numbers-based tools that you can use immediately to make sure that practice you open, stays open!
We encourage all counselors to take this course. Whether you're just getting started as an associate or you're fully licensed and credentialed or maybe you have your Supervisory designation already, this course is for you! This is the stuff about running a mental health practice (a business) that they didn't teach you in school.
TCL Pt 6 - 40 Hr Texas Supervisor Training Workshop for LPC's and LMFT's
Please Note: This 40 clock-hour supervisor training course complies with 681.147 of the LPC boards' requirements for license upgrade status to Supervisor. If you're already a supervisor you may take this course and count it towards your supervisor refresher requirements, your ethics requirements, and apply the balance towards any elective ce needs.
So you want to be a Supervisor? Good! We need more Supervisors with a "pay-it-forward" attitude and a desire to help the next generation of counselors launch their careers successfully.
What we're looking for are counselors who......well, click the link and I think you'll be happy with what you find there. We look forward to helping you reach your next professional goal!
