How many clinical and supervision hours are required for licensure?
A total of 1500 clinical hours wth 200 approved supervision hours is the minimum requirement. Up to 500 clinical hours and any amount of approved supervision earned while in your qualifying degree program may be counted toward the licensure requirement. The remaining 1000 clinical hours must be acquired, under approved supervision (AAMFT Approved Supervisor), post licensure (LMFTA). A minimum of 25 approved supervision hours must be acquired post degree, regardless of the number of hours earned prior to completion of your degree. In other words, even if you earned 200 supervision hours during your degree program, you would still need 25 more post degree.
