What do you need to work in behavioral health in New York?
Dense, credential-heavy market. Licensure processing time is the main obstacle to out-of-state hires, so we start it before offer, not after. For behavior analysis, new York licenses behavior analysts (LBA) through the Office of the Professions; BCBA certification alone is not sufficient. Counseling and social work roles require lMHC, LCSW and LMFT are licensed by NYSED, with limited-permit routes pre-licensure. New York participates in PSYPACT: not a member, Counseling Compact: enacted, which can shorten the route in for clinicians already licensed elsewhere.
