When these licenses can’t cross state lines, consumers suffer (opens the original)
Read excerpt
This article originally appeared in the Washington Post August 5, 2026. Anne Davis is a psychotherapist who spent two decades counseling homeless people and patients with mental illness in Colorado. But when she moved home to Michigan — which has a severe shortage of counselors, social workers and therapists — it took more than a year for the state to allow her to get back to work.

A series of bills in the state Senate would make this challenge a little easier.
