How to Become an Approved Clinical Supervisor for LPCCs in Kentucky

Kentucky counselors (LPCCs) who want to be approved as clinical supervisors must meet specific requirements established by the Kentucky Board of Licensed Professional Counselors. Whether you're preparing to supervise associates (LPCCs in training) or expand your leadership skills, this guide explains exactly what you need to qualify—and how the Telehealth Certification Institute (TCI) can help you meet those requirements efficiently and affordably.


🧾 Kentucky Clinical Supervisor Requirements

Initial Requirements:

To serve as a clinical supervisor in Kentucky, you must:

  • Hold a valid LPCC license in good standing for at least two years, and

  • Complete a minimum of 15 CE hours in a board-approved clinical supervision training program.

These requirements are outlined in 201 KAR 36:065, Section 1.

Unlike some states, Kentucky does not require additional supervision CE hours for renewal, as long as you maintain your LPCC license and fulfill general CE obligations.
