Board of Examiners in Counseling rule relating to marriage and family therapist licensing

SB 334 authorizes West Virginia's Board of Examiners in Counseling to implement a modified licensing rule for marriage and family therapists. The bill specifically approves a revised rule (27 CSR 08) that was adjusted after feedback from the Legislative Rule-Making Review Committee and refiled in October 2025. This rule directly affects marriage and family therapists seeking or renewing their licenses in West Virginia. The legislation is procedural, focusing solely on authorizing the board to adopt this existing modified rule, not changing the actual licensing requirements.
