Counselor (Collection: Mental Health )

Usually a generic term for someone who counsels - e.g., someone who provides advice and support to another person or persons. The word can be synonymous with "therapist". It can also be short for Licensed Professional Counselor (LPC) which is a specific legal license (and a protected term) that a psychotherapist (usually at the MS/MA level of training) can get. Not all counselors are LPCs.
