The bill amends the Public Health Code of Michigan to enhance the licensing and practice regulations for marriage and family therapists, counselors, and psychologists. It introduces a requirement for licensed marriage and family therapists to use specific titles and limits advertising to those licensed under the relevant sections. New provisions for limited licenses allow individuals to practice under supervision while gaining experience, with a mandated 3-year license cycle for these limited licenses that can be renewed under certain conditions. The bill also updates the requirements for obtaining psychology licenses, including educational qualifications and postdoctoral experience, and emphasizes the importance of continuing education for license renewal.

Additionally, the bill modifies the requirements for licensed master's social workers by removing the stipulation that their post-master's or postdoctoral degree experience must be supervised by someone with a master's or doctoral degree in social work until July 1, 2008. Instead, it allows supervision by a licensed master's social worker. A new provision grants limited licenses to individuals who have completed the educational requirements for licensure as a bachelor's or master's social worker, enabling them to engage in the necessary two-year post-degree experience. This limited license is renewable for up to six years, with plans to establish a three-year license cycle for it within five years, allowing for one additional three-year renewal term.
