Can a Licensed Professional Counselor transfer a license to Wyoming as a military spouse?
Yes. Wyoming is a member of the Counseling Compact, so a Licensed Professional Counselor holding a multistate/compact license can practice in WY without re-applying. Explicit military-spouse provision: practice on home-state license in any Compact state, plus expedited home-license process when moving.
Your counseling licensing board in Wyoming
Under Wyoming Statute 33-1-117, which reaches licensing boards under Title 33 except attorneys and boards with prescriptive drug authority (and therefore reaches the Mental Health Professions Licensing Board that licenses professional counselors), a qualifying military spouse applicant may practice under a temporary permit for up to 120 days while the Wyoming license application is pending.
