Licences are issued at state level, so a provider anywhere in New York can generally see you by video — which makes the statewide figure the more useful one: 40,072 licensed therapists are registered across New York. Asking specifically whether a practice takes remote appointments is usually the fastest way to widen the search.

These counts come from the federal NPI registry. A provider appears here if they hold an active NPI with a practice address in this area — it does not mean they are currently accepting new clients, and the registry does not record insurance, fees or availability.
