Proposed merge of Clinical mental health counseling into Counseling psychology
editThe following discussion is closed. Please do not modify it. Subsequent comments should be made on the appropriate discussion page. No further edits should be made to this discussion.
The clinical psychology article has much more information, links, and provides a global view of the topic. The clinical mental health counseling article reads like an essay about mental healthcare with a focus on the USA, specifically North Carolina. SparklingSnail (talk) 22:52, 10 September 2022 (UTC)
- Support and create a new section for some of the information in this article to go on the article where it will be merged into.

- Support, but clinic mental health counseling article will need to be much abridged during this move. At the moment it looks like a complete mess trying to describe every aspect and every organization in its field; way too many subheadings. It looks like only the licensing section is majorly biased towards North Carolina focus, the other sections seem to have a more broad view.

- Support. The Clinical mental health counseling article is a mess and it will take a long time to complete the merge. ImproperlyPeeledOrange (talk) 03:28, 15 September 2022 (UTC)
- Work/function-wise, there is certainly overlap with 'counseling psychology' but 'clinical mental health counseling' is not part of 'counseling psychology;' rather, it's under the umbrella of the counseling profession (very closely related to, but separate from, the profession of psychology). 72.227.101.76 (talk) 17:01, 26 November 2022 (UTC)

- Oppose, noting that Clinical mental health counseling is just one form of Counseling psychology (the others being listed in Counseling psychology#Subcategories of Counseling), and that the current proposal would unbalance the target. Rather, I suggest leaving the pages in WP:SUMMARY format but to improve Clinical mental health counseling. Klbrain (talk) 16:00, 21 August 2023 (UTC)
- Oppose on the same grounds as Klbrain. If this is an established variety of therapy, it should have it's own entry. However, most of the material on the page should be merged with the existing entries on counselling. The new version of the page should be very much focused on what makes this kind of counselling unique from other kinds. However, I get the sense that "clinical mental health counseling" is just a miscellaneous bucket that counseling without another established category gets put into. A successor to the more DSM-linked "personal adjustment counseling" (a treatment for "adjustment disorder") category. Transient-understanding (talk) 05:30, 26 August 2023 (UTC)

Counselling Psychology should note it is about Counselling in the USA
editthe Counselling Psychology page should note that it refers specifically to counselling and counselling professions in the USA and does not cover differences in other countries. The title and the introduction to the page do not specify that this is a regional article and could easily be interpreted as being about counselling generally or making generalisations about counselling as a professions which could be misleading to readers.
