Summary

Texas Mental Health Law provides licensed psychologists, professional counselors, social workers, mental health professionals, and professors with the key legal and policy issues specific to the state of Texas today. Issues directly affecting all these practitioners and their students have been carefully selected from statutes, case laws, official archives of the Attorney General Opinions and Open Records Opinions as well as synopses of the opinion letters of the Texas State Board of Examiners of Psychologists.
