Overview

The Clinical Mental Health Counseling program at Tarleton State University meets the requirements for licensure in the state of Texas.

It is important to note these requirements may not meet the requirements in other states, even if you have completed a master’s program in counseling. If you plan on becoming a licensed mental health counselor outside of the state of Texas, it is important to know the state requirements of a state you might move to in the future. Currently in the US, there is not one set of requirements for all states and each state is different.
