GA psychotherapy requirement?

[Kristi Hurley]

Just got my consent order from the GA BON and there's a psychotherapy requirement. I was thinking that just meant any psychologist/ psychiatrist, but then I saw it says it must be a "board approved psychotherapy program.” Are there only certain therapists that qualify? I tried to Google this, but couldn't find a list of approved psychotherapists anywhere.

Usually you just submit to them the name, credentials and contact information.  They will approve it as long as the provider has legitimate credentials.  I think they just want to be sure you are seeing a provider who is legitimate and credentialed, rather than a "faith healer" or a self proclaimed "therapist" who is isn't legit.
