How to Become an Approved Clinical Supervisor for LPCs in Wyoming

Licensed Professional Counselors (LPCs) in Wyoming have the opportunity to expand their impact and career potential by becoming Designated Qualified Clinical Supervisors (DQCS). Whether you're supervising future professionals or enhancing your leadership skills, supervision credentials are a strategic next step—and Telehealth Certification Institute (TCI) is here to help you meet the state's exact requirements.

  1. Licensure and Experience

    • Must hold an independent practice license for at least two years

    • Must have at least four years of post-graduate professional experience in counseling or a related field

  2. Supervision Training Requirement

    • Must complete either:

      • A graduate-level course in clinical supervision
        OR

      • A minimum of 3 contact hours of CE in clinical supervision

  3. Fulfillment Deadline

    • If you were approved as a supervisor before completing this educational requirement, you must complete it during your current renewal period to maintain your DQCS status.

📚 Continuing Education (CE) Requirements for License Renewal

While Wyoming does not require ongoing CE hours specifically for clinical supervisors after initial approval, pursuing additional supervision training is highly recommended. Advanced education helps you strengthen your supervisory skills, uphold ethical and professional standards, and work toward national credentials such as the Approved Clinical Supervisor (ACS).

Continued learning ensures you stay current with best practices and maintain competence in an evolving clinical landscape.
