    How much does a NCSP earn in Mississippi?

    In Mississippi, what a NCSP is offered is set by MS licensure, the setting, caseload size and local cost of living rather than a state-wide average — we do not publish one, and there is no federal wage series for this credential. One of the thinnest clinician supplies in the country relative to need, so out-of-state and remote supervision models are common. Nationally, the NCSP roles we recruit are advertised at roughly $72k – $105k; the national NCSP salary guide sets out the entry, mid-career and senior figures behind that.

    What changes a NCSP offer in Mississippi

    • LPC, LCSW and LMFT are separately licensed.
    • Setting: School districts, Charter networks, Contract school services 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: Structurally short in nearly every state; evaluation backlogs drive most of our contract school work.

    Why we do not publish a MS average

    We publish what we actually see advertised on roles we recruit. We do not hold a statistically valid state-level survey, and there is no federal wage series for this credential, so quoting a Mississippi average would be guesswork dressed as data.

    NCSP pay and licensure in Mississippi: common questions

    Do you need a license to work as a NCSP in Mississippi?
    LPC, LCSW and LMFT are separately licensed. Confirm the current position with the Mississippi board before you accept a start date, as processing time is the usual cause of a delayed start.
    What is the average NCSP salary in Mississippi?
    There is no federal wage series for NCSPs, because the credential has no separate occupation code, and we do not hold a statistically valid Mississippi survey. What we can publish is advertised pay on the NCSP roles we recruit: roughly $72k – $105k across the US, moved by setting, caseload and metro cost of living.
    Does NCSP pay in Mississippi differ from the rest of the US?
    We publish advertised pay on the roles we recruit, not a Mississippi average. Across the US those NCSP roles are advertised at roughly $72k – $105k, and where a Mississippi offer lands inside that band is driven by setting, caseload and metro cost of living.
    Where are the NCSP jobs in Mississippi?
    One of the thinnest clinician supplies in the country relative to need, so out-of-state and remote supervision models are common. The live NCSP vacancies we hold in Mississippi are listed on this page; when nothing is open there today, the national NCSP board carries every role we currently hold.
    Who employs NCSPs in Mississippi?
    The employers hiring this credential are school districts, charter networks, contract school services, special education cooperatives. Which of those dominates in Mississippi follows the local funding and provider mix rather than any national pattern, and it is the single biggest driver of what an offer looks like: the same NCSP is priced differently by a center-based provider, a school district and a hospital system.
    What do employers look for when hiring a NCSP in Mississippi?
    First, the credential and the right to practise: state school psychologist credential; ncsp certification widely preferred. LPC, LCSW and LMFT are separately licensed. After that, hiring managers screen on the specifics of the work — caseload size you have carried, the settings you have worked in, supervision responsibility, and documentation or payer experience. Availability matters too: a realistic start date that accounts for board processing usually beats a stronger resume that cannot start.
    What does the salary range on this page actually mean?
    Two different things, kept separate on purpose. $72k – $105k is what NCSP roles we recruit are advertised at across the US — a live market signal, not a survey. There is no federal wage series for this credential, so no official Mississippi median exists to compare it against. Neither number is an offer; where you land inside a range is set by setting, caseload and metro cost of living.
