    How much does a LPC / LMHC earn in Ohio?

    LPC / LMHC roles we recruit across the US are advertised at roughly $55k – $85k, typically $55k entry, $70k mid-career and $85k at senior or supervisory level. In Ohio, where an individual offer lands inside that range is driven by licensure, setting, caseload and local cost of living rather than a state-wide average. Balanced market across ABA, community mental health and IDD, with strong nonprofit provider presence.

    What changes a LPC / LMHC offer in Ohio

    • LPC/LPCC, LISW/LSW and MFT licensure sit with the CSWMFT Board.
    • Setting: Outpatient clinics, Community mental health, Substance use treatment price differently for the same credential.
    • Caseload cap and billable or productivity target, which decide whether a bonus is real.
    • Metro cost of living within the state; a city premium is not the same as a better offer.
    • Scarcity: High volume nationally, with the tightest markets wherever associate-level clinicians cannot find paid supervision.

    Why we do not publish a OH average

    We publish what we actually see advertised on roles we recruit. We do not hold a statistically valid state-level survey, so quoting a Ohio average would be guesswork dressed as data. For official state wage estimates, use the federal source and treat it as a floor for negotiation, not a target.

    Title portability is the trap. Moving state usually means a new application, sometimes new coursework. We map it before a candidate commits.
