Present the scope of practice for clinical mental health counselors in your state (note that CMHCs might also be called LPCs, LMHCs, or something similar). What are CMHCS allowed to do, as defined by law? What are they not allowed to do?
List the preparation standards and steps necessary for credentialing in your state. Post these in a bulleted, abbreviated, outline format.
Describe something new or surprising that you learned as you researched the scope of practice in your state.
