Change is inevitable- but you don't have to be left behind! Here's your chance to keep up with Texas regulations

for Mental Health Professionals.

Please join us as

Darrel Spinks, Executive Director for the Texas Behavioral Health Executive Council,

shares information and insights via Zoom

specifically for BVPA

1:00 to 2:00 PM on November 20, 2026

and earn 1 Ethics CEU

This presentation provides important regulatory and legislative updates for Texas licensed mental health providers. It will highlight recent statutory changes from the 89th Legislature, as well as key regulatory developments and emerging issues the Texas Behavioral Health Executive Council anticipates will shape the 2028–2029 biennium.

As a current or future Texas licensee, you may have wondered:

How is BHEC using AI to better assist me when I have questions about my license?
Why do we have to use CE Broker and who can I vent to about my frustrations with CE Broker?
Who gets audited and why?
What are the most common reasons licensees are sanctioned?
What issues does BHEC anticipate may arise during the upcoming 90th Legislature?

This is your chance to directly address your questions and ask for clarification from Mr. Darrel Spinks, Executive Director of the Texas Behavioral Health Executive Council.

PLEASE NOTE: This is a free event, open to all Texas mental health professionals.
It will be followed immediately at 2PM by BVPA's Third Annual General Membership Meeting, and then at 3PM by another Ethics CEU event "Ask A Lawyer...or Two".
Each of these presentations will have a separate Zoom Link, so please be sure to register separately for each event.
Attendance for all 3 events is free.

We look forward to seeing you at this important information session.

About our Presenter:

Darrel D. Spinks is the Executive Director of the Texas Behavioral Health Executive Council, having previously served as the Executive Director and General Counsel for the Texas State Board of Examiners of Psychologists. Prior to working for the state, Mr. Spinks was in private practice for over nine years, during which time he handled a wide variety of both civil and criminal litigation in state and federal court.

Cost: BVPA Members Free, Non-Members $80, TPA Members 10% discount at registration with TPA Member Number, Student Non-Members $10.

Learning Objectives:

By the end of the session, the learner will be able to:

1. Define differentiation of self and distinguish it from popular misreadings

2. Identify triangulation and emotional reactivity patterns in clinical case material.

3. Apply a Bowen Family Systems Theory lens to individual, couple, or family case conceptualization.

and doctoral candidate specializing in couples therapy, ADHD, and

chronic illness. His work examines the intersection of ADHD, chronic

illness, and couple functioning, emphasizing relational adjustment,

emotional regulation, and adaptive processes from a Bowen Family

Systems Theory perspective.

Peer Consultation Meetings provide an opportunity for members to provide one another with valuable information to increase the efficacy of our work, as well as provide an opportunity to engage in “best practices” for consultation about difficult cases. As you may recall, one of the best risk management practices, when dealing with difficult clients or situations, is to document peer consultation in your notes.

In addition to consultations on individual cases brought by participants, issues of general concern that we address include professional liability questions, compliance with regulations, the impact of changes in legislation, insurance guidelines, and practical questions about the business of running a practice. Additionally, you may have a specific area of expertise that you would be willing to share with the group, such as training in specific treatment modalities, expertise with certain populations, teletherapy expertise, or insights that come from years of practice.
