All correspondence and inquiries should be directed to the Board of Psychology staff at 4052 Bald Cypress Way, Bin #C05, Tallahassee, FL 32399-3255. Since this Board serves as a "quasi-judicial" entity on licensure issues, contact with the members may cause the members to be recused from administrative proceedings. Staff will direct inquiries, when appropriate to the full Board for review.
