What is an LMHC?

A Licensed Mental Health Counselor is a master's-level clinician licensed to diagnose and treat mental health conditions through psychotherapy. The LMHC title is used in states including New York, Florida, Massachusetts, and Washington. Training and scope are close to what other states call an LPC, so the license name tells you more about the state than about the style of therapy.
