Mentara Health is a team of Licensed Mental Health Counselors and clinical supervisors. We help new graduates pass the NCMHCE, and help licensed clinicians (LMHCs, LMFTs and social workers) earn CE and open a private practice.
Pick your stage. Each path shows the next step.
Recent graduateThe NCMHCE tests clinical judgment under time pressure. We help you practice that way, so exam day feels familiar.
Licensed clinicianClinical school didn't teach you how to run a business. We cover the setup, the systems and the CE you need to keep your license.
Start free and see where you stand. Then add the support you need.
One timed client case in the current NCMHCE format. You'll get a score in each domain and a rationale for every option.
Join online small-group tutoring (8 or fewer), or book 1:1 tutoring. Work cases together and focus on your weakest domains.
Prep packages include a full-length timed practice exam, so you can rehearse your pacing before test day.
Free. Your score and rationales appear as soon as you finish.
Our instructors supervise pre-licensed clinicians and run a group practice, so we know where new counselors get stuck.
Your instructors are licensed clinicians who supervise and train counselors.
Realistic client cases with clear rationales, the way you'll reason on the exam and in session.
Groups of 8 or fewer, so you get real feedback, not a webinar and a PDF.
One place to pass your exam, keep your license current and open your doors.
Practice the way the exam is scored.
Courses you'll use in session.
From license to a practice that runs.
"What helped me most was the breakdown of the cases and the explanation of the reasoning behind the correct answers."
"The weekly case studies were the most helpful during the six weeks of learning. I would recommend this course because it was a very educational 6 weeks."
"I love how thorough Faye was with the worksheets... We all asked relevant questions and weren't afraid to participate."
Work through one client across three sessions, timed like the real exam. You'll get a score in each domain and a rationale for every answer, so you know what to study next.
