Therapists & Counselors in Tuscaloosa, AL

443 licensed providers are registered in Tuscaloosa — about 38.8 for every 10,000 residents.

That is roughly 7.1 providers per square mile of land area, or 38.8 per 10,000 residents.

A figure well above the median usually means more choice and shorter waits than most of Alabama — though supply is not the same as availability. Plenty of providers in a well-served area are full, out of network, or private-pay only.

Of the 289 places in Alabama with at least one registered provider, Tuscaloosa ranks 5th by count.

By licence type the breakdown is clinical social worker (120), social worker (63), professional counselor (40), psychiatrist (40), with 6 further types making up the remainder.

10 distinct licence types are registered here. The letters after a provider's name describe their training route rather than a ranking, and several of them do substantially overlapping work.

Registered addresses are spread across 5 ZIP codes. The map above sizes each ZIP by how many providers are registered there — clustering usually follows medical districts and commercial corridors rather than population.

One caveat on reading these numbers: the registry records where a provider registered an address, not where they see clients day to day, and addresses are not always kept current. It also says nothing about whether someone is taking new clients.
