About this site
FindLPCTherapists.com is an independent directory of licensed professional counselors across the United States: LPC, LPCC and LCPC. It exists to make one thing easier: comparing enough about a counselor to decide whether they might suit you, before you contact anybody.
How it is paid for
This is a commercial directory. It is free to use and carries no advertising, but if you go on to sign up with a therapist through a link here, this site will earn a commission at no extra cost to you. The commission does not change who is listed or the order they appear in.
Who is listed
Everyone here holds a state counseling license under one of three titles: Licensed Professional Counselor, Licensed Professional Clinical Counselor, or Licensed Clinical Professional Counselor. The wording differs by state; the training behind it is a master's degree in counseling followed by supervised clinical hours and a state examination. All of them work online through BetterHelp, the platform their details come from.
Naming a method is not the same as holding a training credential in it. This site records what each counselor listed, nothing more. If a counselor's training matters to you, ask them directly; how to choose a counselor explains where to look.
The areas someone appears under are self-selected: they are categories the counselor chose when setting up their profile. Appearing under one means they have said they work with it, nothing more. If it matters to you, ask them directly.
What the license line means
Every counselor here holds a license granted by a board in the state named on their profile, and almost every one also has an NPI, the national provider identifier. Both are printed on the profile exactly as the counselor lists them, with a link to the national registry, so you can look either one up yourself. We do not verify any of it, and we never claim to have done so.
Where the information comes from
License details, the NPI, years in practice, focus areas, methods and languages come from BetterHelp. We do not collect them from counselors directly.
The written summaries on each profile are produced with the help of AI, working only from those supplied facts, and are written not to add anything that is not in them: no invented specialties, diagnoses, availability or results. If something looks wrong, tell us and we will correct it.
What this site does not do
- We do not check, rate or endorse any counselor, and we do not confirm training, license standing or registry status.
- We do not rank listings by quality, and the order is not paid for.
- We do not give clinical advice, make diagnoses or promise any outcome.
- We do not publish whether someone is taking new clients; it changes constantly.

Corrections and removals
If you are listed here and something is wrong or out of date, write to us and we will amend or remove the listing. Counselors can ask to be removed at any time and do not need to give a reason. Removal applies across the whole site.
