I will graduate with my masters degree this summer and will start a PhD program in the fall. I can attain a entry-level/intern LPC license in the state(s) where my potential program(s) are with my M.A.
My question is: Can the hours I collect on practicum(s) count for LCPC/full licensure hour accrual? Could I then potentially attain a full license by the time I apply for predoctoral internship?
I know that the reverse (licensure hours counting for practicum, especially when paid) depends on the school's discretion, but I suppose that is a follow-up question: How common is this scenario?
Finally, would there be any purpose to any of this? For example, is attaining a full LCPC license helpful for internship?
Thanks in advance.
