House Bill 3808 amends the Education Code to make a licensed marriage and family therapist eligible for repayment assistance for certain mental health professional education loans, subject to specified caps. The bill authorizes the Texas Higher Education Coordinating Board in a state fiscal year in which there are funds available for the repayment of such loans after funding grants to other eligible mental health professionals to allocate any unused funds to award repayment assistance grants free of certain limitations to any of the eligible mental health professionals, including a licensed marriage and family therapist, but with priority given to awarding grants to the other eligible professionals.
House Bill 3808 amends the Occupations Code to revise the conduct that constitutes the practice of psychology, for purposes of the regulation of that profession, and to exclude certain conduct from that practice.
