# Mississippi mental health counselor licensing requirements

The primary independent counselor route in Mississippi is Licensed Professional Counselor (LPC); the supervised stage is Provisional Licensed Professional Counselor (P-LPC). The requirements below describe that counselor license only; psychology, social work and marriage-and-family-therapy routes are separate.

Statewide license Reviewed October 2, 2026

## Credential requirements

### Licensed Professional Counselor (LPC); the supervised stage is Provisional Licensed Professional Counselor (P-LPC).

1.  #### Education
    
    Complete a 60-semester-hour master’s degree in counseling or an approved related counseling field.
    
2.  #### Exam
    
    Mississippi requires the NCE or NCMHCE under the Board’s current rules and licensure instructions.
    
3.  #### Experience
    
    Complete 3,000 supervised post-master’s hours over at least 18 months under a Board-approved LPC supervisor, while holding P-LPC.
    
4.  #### Application
    
    Apply to the Mississippi LPC Board for P-LPC and then LPC with transcript, national exam score, fingerprint/background materials, supervision agreement/logs, supervisor verification and fees.
    

**Good to know:** This guide covers only the Licensed Professional Counselor (LPC); the supervised stage is Provisional Licensed Professional Counselor (P-LPC). Psychology, clinical social work and marriage-and-family-therapy licenses are separate regulated professions; a short pre-licensure course cannot replace the required graduate degree, supervised practice, examinations or state license.
