    Texas State Board of Examiners of Psychologists (TSBEP) will be going through Sunset in 2019 since our sunset legislation failed to pass last session. As you recall, last session the Sunset Commission recommended that TSBEP be consolidated with all the other mental health boards (LPC, MFT, SW) to create an umbrella mental health agency.  The Sunset Commission staff has completed their review of our agency and last week released their recommendations for the upcoming session.
