Forms and Helpful Links

Students graduating from our Clinical Mental Health Counseling and Counselor Education and Supervision programs are eligible for professional licensure by the Texas State Board of Examiners for Professional Counselors (LPC), and the National Board for Certified Counselors (NBCC).

Students are expected to become actively involved in professional organizations most closely associated with their interests and program of study. Counseling students are encouraged to join the American Counseling Association (ACA). This organization acts as an advocate for the special interests of its members. It is in the students' best interest that their professional organizations be strong, purposeful, and effective in order to advocate for members, the profession, and public interests. Students will also very likely purchase their professional liability insurance coverage through their student memberships in ACA (actually, ACA provides master's students with liability insurance at no cost). Faculty members encourage students to become active, contributing members within their professional organizations.
