# Vermont mental health counselor licensing requirements

Vermont’s independent counselor credential is Licensed Clinical Mental Health Counselor (LCMHC), after a supervised roster/nonlicensed psychotherapist stage. This counselor route is separate from psychology, clinical social work and marriage-and-family-therapy licenses.

Statewide license Reviewed October 2, 2026

## Credential requirements

### Licensed Clinical Mental Health Counselor (LCMHC); supervised practice may be recorded on Vermont’s roster of nonlicensed psychotherapists.

1.  #### Education
    
    Complete a qualifying counseling master’s or doctoral degree; CACREP programs generally document 60 graduate credits, while non-CACREP programs are reviewed under Vermont rules.
    
2.  #### Exam
    
    Pass both the NCE and NCMHCE.
    
3.  #### Experience
    
    Complete 3,000 post-graduate supervised hours over at least two years, including 2,000 direct client-contact hours and 100 hours of face-to-face supervision.
    
4.  #### Application
    
    Apply to the Vermont Office of Professional Regulation with the LCMHC application, transcript, NCE/NCMHCE results, roster/supervision records, background materials and fees.
    

**Good to know:** Vermont’s supervised-practice roster is a regulated step before independent counseling. Psychology, clinical social work and marriage-and-family-therapy licenses are separate regulated professions; a short pre-licensure course cannot replace the graduate degree, supervised practice, examinations or state license.
