Regional Chapters

NYMHCA regional chapters provide an opportunity for clinical counselors to meet, network, continue their professional education, and mentor students and new professionals.

You must be a NYMHCA member in good standing to become a member of a regional chapter. If there is no chapter near where you live, contact us to learn how you can start one!
