Mental Health Credentials and Services |
The field of mental health is broad, with countless titles and acronyms that seem to be second nature for practitioners, though they can be quite confusing for individuals seeking services. This article will explore a number of terms and provide brief descriptions for many of the common roles and titles within the mental health world. Some terms are considered relatively universal, while others are used differently in various settings. Some terms are meant to distinguish between various forms of licensure, while others are to denote the level of education and program of study, and still others are meant to describe the role and services offered by the provider. It is important to note that this is not an exhaustive list of all the possible terms for mental health service providers.
