About PAMHCA

This organization is the mental health counselor's resource for Pennsylvania. We recently reactivated in May 2006 with the election of our current board members. We continue to expand our membership.

We are connected organizationally to Pennsylvania Counseling Association (PCA) and the American Mental Health Counselors Association (AMHCA). Our board, which meets four times annually, is composed of practicing clinicians who have a commitment to the counseling profession and practitioners in the mental health field.

Our members are either private providers or employed by companies, universities, church groups or governmental agencies. Our graduate student members are also crucial in the future of mental health.

In 2007, workshops and seminars will be organized and presented in close proximity to the capital area region. Additionally, we hope to expand our workshops to other regions in Pennsylvania.

Our mission is to enhance the profession of mental health counseling through licensing, advocacy, education and professional development in Pennsylvania.
