The marriage and family therapist section may issue a temporary license permitting a person who has completed the educational and supervised practice requirements for eligibility for a license as a marriage and family therapist upon payment of the fee for the temporary license and application for the next available examination to use the title "marriage and family therapist" and to practice marriage and family therapy. The temporary license is valid for a period not to exceed 9 months from the date of its issuance, and it may be renewed once upon receipt of a written request and any required renewal fee. If a temporary license is returned to the department prior to its expiration along with a written request that it be placed on hold, the temporary license may later be reissued to the holder for the remainder of the 9 month period.
