Therapists & Counselors in West Memphis, AR

96 licensed providers are registered in West Memphis — about 41.1 for every 10,000 residents.

Among the 158 places in Arkansas big enough for the comparison to hold — at least a thousand residents, and a resident population that matches who is registered there — West Memphis ranks 56th by providers per resident.

A figure well above the median usually means more choice and shorter waits than most of Arkansas — 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 269 places in Arkansas with at least one registered provider, West Memphis ranks 22nd by count.

By licence type the breakdown is social worker (35), clinical social worker (25), mental health counselor (12), counselor (7), with 4 further types making up the remainder.

The largest single group, social worker, accounts for 37% of licensed providers registered here, so no one licence defines what is available. Training route and areas of focus vary more within a licence type than between them.

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.
