Common questions
Finding a counselor in Mississippi
How do I find a licensed counselor in Mississippi?
Browse by city or specialty using the search above. This directory lists 2,800+ licensed providers verified through the federal NPI Registry. You can filter by type — counselors, therapists, marriage and family therapists, social workers, or psychologists — or search by provider name.
What credentials do licensed counselors in Mississippi have?
Mississippi counselors hold one of several state licenses: Licensed Professional Counselor (LPC), Licensed Clinical Social Worker (LCSW), Licensed Marriage and Family Therapist (LMFT), or Licensed Psychologist (PhD or PsyD). Each requires a graduate degree, supervised clinical hours, and passing a state licensing exam.
What is the difference between an LPC and an LCSW in Mississippi?
An LPC (Licensed Professional Counselor) holds a master's degree in counseling and is licensed by the Mississippi State Board of Examiners for LPCs. An LCSW (Licensed Clinical Social Worker) holds a master's degree in social work and is licensed by the Mississippi State Board of Certified Social Workers. Both are qualified to provide psychotherapy; the difference lies in their graduate training background and professional associations.
How do I verify a counselor's license in Mississippi?
You can verify a counselor's license through the federal NPI Registry at nppes.cms.hhs.gov — every licensed provider has a unique NPI number listed on their profile here. LPC licenses can also be verified directly through the Mississippi State Board of Examiners for Licensed Professional Counselors.
Do Mississippi counselors accept insurance?
Many licensed counselors in Mississippi accept insurance, but coverage varies by plan and provider. Contact individual counselors directly to confirm whether they accept your specific plan. Counselors who have claimed their listing can display accepted insurance plans on their profile.
Is telehealth available from Mississippi counselors?
Yes — many licensed counselors in Mississippi offer telehealth sessions via video or phone. Telehealth expanded significantly after 2020 and many providers now offer it alongside in-person appointments. Contact individual counselors to confirm their current telehealth availability.
