Therapists & Counselors in Tempe, AZ

There are 1,066 licensed providers registered in Tempe. The two most common licence types are mental health counselor (199) and professional counselor (198).

Among the 77 places in Arizona big enough for the comparison to hold — at least a thousand residents, and a resident population that matches who is registered there — Tempe ranks 9th by providers per resident.

A figure well above the median usually means more choice and shorter waits than most of Arizona — 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 172 places in Arizona with at least one registered provider, Tempe ranks 6th by count.

By licence type the breakdown is mental health counselor (199), professional counselor (198), clinical social worker (186), behavior analyst (95), 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.
