Online Clinical Mental Health Counseling Programs

Clinical mental health counseling programs whose coursework is delivered online. Online coursework does not remove the in-person parts of clinical training: practicum and internship take place at an approved site, and many programs add campus residencies. Licensure depends on the state where you will practice — use each program's licensure disclosure.

Rule: Included when the program's verified delivery is online and its official title or description names clinical mental health counseling. This page updates from the directory's verified facts.

School or program keyword

Campus attendance (coursework)

About classes only. Practicum and internship are in person for every clinical program.

Accreditation

Placement support stated

The program publishes practicum/internship placement assistance or arranges placements.

Degree

Degree level

Exact degree

Program classification

Also include counseling psychology

A related field, listed separately. Doctoral counseling psychology prepares psychologists, not counselors.

Bachelor's entry route

Only routes the university publishes for the program.

School location

State

Where the school is based — not where you must live or complete fieldwork, and not proof that residents of that state may enroll.

Institution type

Schedule & length

Study intensity

Online class schedule

Only where the school states it.

Published length

Conditional minimums (“as few as…”) do not count as the program length.

Cost, admissions & funding

Tuition

Estimated total = published per-credit rate × required credits (or a published program total), using the rate for all students or nonresidents. Fees excluded. Programs without comparable data never match. How it works

GRE policy

Missing GRE information never counts as “not required”.

Funding

Competitive assistantships do not make a program funded.

Published enrollment restrictions

Programs whose school publishes state authorization or residency restrictions for online students.

Deadline

Order

Unknown never counts as a match: a program without verified tuition is not “under $X”, unpublished attendance rules are not “no campus visits”, and an unmatched program is not CACREP-accredited.
