What are an LPC's options following the board's decision on a violation?

Ignore the decision
Request for a reevaluation
Seek a different board's opinion
Pay the penalty or file a petition for judicial review

The correct answer is: Pay the penalty or file a petition for judicial review

An LPC (Licensed Professional Counselor) cannot simply choose to ignore the board's decision on a violation as it can result in further penalties and consequences. Seeking a different board's opinion is also not a recommended option as it will only prolong the process and may not yield a different decision. Requesting for a reevaluation is also not an option, as the board's decision has already been finalized. The only appropriate options for an LPC to follow after a violation has been determined by the board is to either pay the penalty or file a petition for judicial review. This ensures that the violation is appropriately addressed and resolved, while also providing an opportunity for the LPC to challenge the board's decision through the court system.
