About professional clinical counselor therapy for people in Long Beach

Everyone listed on this page holds a licence to practise in California and works online. That matters more than it sounds: a licence is issued by the state, not by a city, so a therapist is available to anyone in California regardless of how far away they are. Someone in Long Beach can work with a therapist whose books would otherwise be out of reach.

166 therapists match this page, all of whom name professional clinical counselor among the areas they work with. Fifteen are shown above. The list changes between pages, so it is worth looking at more than one if none of these feels like a fit.

What to compare

  • Credential. LMFT, LCSW and LPCC are different training routes to the same licensed practice. None outranks the others; they shape emphasis rather than quality.
  • Years in practice. Shown for every therapist here. More experience is not automatically better, but it is a fair proxy for how much of a given problem someone has seen.
  • What else they work with. A therapist whose other focus areas overlap with your situation is usually a better starting point than one whose listed areas stop at the single thing you searched for.
  • Approach. CBT, psychodynamic, solution-focused and the rest describe how sessions tend to run. If you have tried therapy before and it did not suit you, changing approach is often more useful than changing therapist.
  • Language. Shown where a therapist offers sessions in more than English.

How online sessions work

Sessions run by video or by messaging, arranged through our partner platform rather than booked directly with the therapist. There is no travel and no waiting room, which for most people is the difference between starting and not starting. Pricing is set by the platform and shown before you commit.

Therapy in Long Beach

Long Beach has a population of about 466,742. Local in-person availability varies and waiting lists are common, which is part of why state-wide online practice has grown. Nothing on this page depends on a therapist being near you.

Common questions

What is an LPCC and how does that differ from other mental health licences?

An LPCC is a Licensed Professional Clinical Counselor who completed specific graduate training and supervised clinical hours in counseling. They focus on psychotherapy, assessment, and treatment planning. Differences from other licenses involve training emphasis and scope of practice. Check each therapist’s stated specialisms, theoretical orientation, and client focus to see if they fit your needs.

Can an LPCC provide services to someone living in Long Beach if they are licensed elsewhere in California?

Yes. A California license allows an LPCC to take clients anywhere in the state. What matters is whether the therapist lists Long Beach among the places they serve online. Confirm directly with the LPCC about any jurisdictional or practice limitations before starting sessions.

What should I compare between LPCC profiles when choosing a therapist for specific issues?

Compare stated areas of expertise, modalities used (for example CBT, EMDR, or interpersonal therapy), populations served by age or identity, language ability, and whether they note experience with your concern. Also look for information on session format and how to contact them to ask practical questions before booking.
