AMHCA Credentials

The AMHCA Professional Credentialing Certification

The AMHCA credentials are for LCMHCs who are independently licensed and currently practicing. These credentialing certifications provide evidence of increasing professional competence and expertise that convey to clients that an LCMHC holds independently recognized competencies.

These credentials honor your education, hard work, certifications and experience. They are envisioned to represent who you are and what you do in your path while getting certified and being qualified.

Why These Credentials Are Needed

• Board certification adds professional credibility
• Credentialing certifications provide evidence of increasing professional competence and expertise that can convey to clients that an LCMHC holds independently recognized competencies
• Our credentials enable CMHCs to distinguish themselves as both advanced practice clinicians and specialist clinicians
• Applicants who are qualified receive an AMHCA certificate and join the over 200 other awardees in being recognized by AMHCA.

Announcement

As of February 9th, AMHCA will briefly pause receiving credentialing applications to revamp the application process. Once the revamping has been completed, an announcement will be made of the credentialing application being back online. Thank you for your understanding and patience as we revisit our credentialing systems and processes.  If you have questions or concerns, please direct them to DrBSmith@amhca.org.

We will process all applications received by Feb 9.
