Black LPCs/LPCCs: licensed professional counselors for anxiety, depression, life transitions, and trauma. Often the most affordable entry to quality therapy.
Licensed Professional Counselors (LPCs, also LPCCs in some states) are master's-level mental-health clinicians. They provide individual and group therapy for depression, anxiety, grief, identity work, and many trauma modalities.

A 2023 NAMI report found counselor wait times were 60 percent shorter on average.
