Also in the rule

Nevada’s rule says these too. TripleRoute does not count them for you, so keep your own record of each.

  • Pace cap

    An average of 32 hours a week, not more than 416 psychotherapy hours in each quarter, unless the Board approves otherwise.

    NAC 641B.150(4)

  • Modality

    Telecommunication may be used to supervise remotely, "but the supervisor must meet in person with the intern at the site ... at least once every month". Where the supervisor does not practise at the intern's site, a monthly site visit.

    NAC 641B.160(3)(b), (4)
