(a) The Department may begin a disciplinary action against an LPC or a person practicing counseling who is not exempt from licensure by following the procedures in Chapter 2 of this Title. The Department shall specifically state the violation(s) and shall request the appropriate remedy. Remedies include revocation of a license, suspension of a license, probation of a licensee and administrative penalty.

(b) If in the course of an investigation the Department determines that a licensee or candidate for licensure has engaged in conduct of a nature that is detrimental to the health, safety, or welfare of the public, and which conduct necessitates immediate action to prevent further harm, the Commissioner may order a summary suspension of the counselor's license or authorization to conduct counseling, counseling treatment interventions, and/or consulting. A presumption of imminent harm to the public shall exist if the Department determines that probable cause exists that a licensee or candidate has violated 310:405-3-3(c) or 310:405-3-4 (a,b,c or e).

Transferred from 310:405-31-4 by Laws 2013, c. 229, § 3(F), eff 11-1-13 (see Editor's Note at beginning of this Chapter)
