What do LPCCs Do?

Licensed Professional Clinical Counselors (LPCC) deliver mental health care to individuals, couples and families, and groups, incorporating the principles of empirically-based and recovery-oriented counseling.

Professional counselors help clients to understand their problems and develop strategies to improve their lives. They are directly responsible for ensuring client safety, remaining compliant with all laws, and regulations and ethical guidelines for the profession.
