Idaho counselor Mark Wiseman loses license after conviction

On October 29, 2013, the Idaho Board of Professional Counselors and Marriage & Family Therapists revoked the right of professional counselor Mark W. Wiseman to renew his license and ordered him to pay a $1,000 fine.

According to the Board’s documents, Wiseman had sexual relations with a counseling client in August 2012, September 2012 and February 2013.

The client had filed a criminal charge against Wiseman for rape, relative to the February 2013 incident of sexual relations.

Wiseman did not deny sexual relations with the client but insisted it was consensual.

He nonetheless pleaded guilty to a reduced charge of battery.
