Question 5

What's a professional clinical counselor? Do I need to be talking about school or counseling stuff but not therapy?

Accepted Answer

A Professional Clinical Counselor (PCC, or LPCC in many states such as California) is a licensed mental health professional who provides psychotherapy and counseling services to individuals, couples, families, and groups.

They are trained to:
Help clients work through emotional, behavioral, and mental health issues
Use evidence-based counseling techniques (like CBT, mindfulness, etc.)
Support personal growth, relationship health, and career or life transitions

So, when you talk about a professional clinical counselor, you’re referring to a mental health clinician, not a school counselor, and yes, it is therapy.
