Therapists & Counselors in Fairbanks, AK

There are 284 licensed providers registered in Fairbanks. The two most common licence types are counselor (84) and mental health counselor (61).

That is roughly 8.9 providers per square mile of land area, or 90.3 per 10,000 residents.

A figure well above the median usually means more choice and shorter waits than most of Alaska — 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 116 places in Alaska with at least one registered provider, Fairbanks ranks 7th by count.

By licence type the breakdown is counselor (84), mental health counselor (61), clinical social worker (37), professional counselor (28), 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.

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.
