scilas Posted May 28, 2019 Share Posted May 28, 2019 Is it better to be dual licensed with an LPC and LMFT? A program I am looking at has a track that would make me eligible to sit for both license's, rather than just LPC. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dancedementia Posted May 30, 2019 Share Posted May 30, 2019 You will not be paid more for being dual-licensed, and frankly no one cares in practice. The one area that is IS beneficial is if you want to be a dually-licensed supervisor. There aren't a lot of those, so you can charge more and/or hold double the amount of supervisees.

Le Chat Posted June 1, 2019 Share Posted June 1, 2019 I would tag on to Dance Dementia's comment that the main benefit would be supervising LMFT-associates and LPC-interns (or whatever your state calls them.) Also, if you ever wanted to pursue a PhD program you would be able to choose from Counselor Education or Marriage and Family Therapy if that is a goal of yours.
