Okla. Stat. tit. 59, § 59-1908

Retirement.

A. An applicant who meets the requirements for licensure

pursuant to the provisions of the Licensed Professional Counselors

Act, has paid the required license fees and has otherwise complied

with the provisions of the Licensed Professional Counselors Act

shall be licensed by the State Board of Behavioral Health Licensure.

B. Each initial license issued pursuant to the Licensed

Professional Counselors Act shall expire twenty-four (24) months

from the date of issuance unless revoked. A license may be renewed

annually upon application and payment of fees. The application for

renewal shall be accompanied by evidence satisfactory to the Board

that the applicant has completed relevant professional or continued

educational experience during the previous twenty-four (24) months.

Failure to renew a license shall result in forfeiture of the rights

and privileges granted by the license. A person whose license has

expired may make application within one (1) year following the

expiration in writing to the Board requesting reinstatement in a

manner prescribed by the Board and payment of the fees required by

the provisions of the Licensed Professional Counselors Act. The

license of a person whose license has expired for more than one (1)

year shall not be reinstated. A person may reapply for a new

license as provided in Section 1906 of this title.

C. A licensed professional counselor whose license is current

and in good standing, who wishes to retire the license, may do so by

informing the Board in writing and returning the license to the

Office of Licensed Professional Counselors. A license so retired

shall not be reinstated but does not prevent a person from applying

for a new license at a future date.
