The Board of Behavioral Sciences consumer guide explains complaint information. Review its family court jurisdiction flyer before assuming a court-connected role falls within its authority. A professional's license and their role in a particular proceeding are separate questions.
Read the Judicial Council's Standard 5.20 for the official standards concerning supervised visitation. Check the current text and the particular court order with an independently retained professional.
A public account, a disciplinary complaint, and a request to change a court order serve different purposes. A complaint is an allegation, not a finding. Do not assume posting here or contacting an agency changes an order or protects a court deadline.
