The Georgia Composite Board of Professional Counselors, Social Workers, and Marriage and Family Therapists is a ten-member board consisting of three professional counselors, three social workers, three marriage and family therapists, and one consumer. The three members from each profession constitute a separate standards committee for their respective specialty. The members are appointed by the Governor. Persons wishing to bring matters for the Board’s consideration should submit written notification or request to Board office.
The Board is charged by law with regulating the practice of professional counseling, social work, and marriage and family therapy in order to protect the health, safety and welfare of the people of Georgia. It does so by enforcing the education and training requirements established by law for licensure in each profession, by adopting and enforcing a code of ethics governing licensees, by establishing and enforcing continuing education requirements, and by addressing unlicensed practice in these professions.
