Quick Answer

Travel LPCCs earn $2,600–$2,900/week in 2026. LPCC is California's version of the LPC credential — the same clinical scope of practice, just a different state name. California county mental health programs (LA County DMH, SF DPH) and VA Medical Centers are the highest-paying settings. There is no compact license — each state requires separate endorsement. CA LPCCs can endorse to other states as LPCs using their existing credential.
