  • Maintain ethical and professional standards in accordance with Georgia licensure requirements.

Qualifications

Master’s degree in counseling, social work, marriage and family therapy, psychology, or a related mental health field.

  • A strong desire to work toward full, independent licensure.
  • Excellent communication, boundary-setting, and documentation skills.
