Therapists & Counselors in Petaluma, CA

There are 464 licensed providers registered in Petaluma. The two most common licence types are marriage & family therapist (185) and counselor (56).

Among the 423 places in California big enough for the comparison to hold — at least a thousand residents, and a resident population that matches who is registered there — Petaluma ranks 105th by providers per resident.

A figure well above the median usually means more choice and shorter waits than most of California — 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 939 places in California with at least one registered provider, Petaluma ranks 121st by count.

By licence type the breakdown is marriage & family therapist (185), counselor (56), clinical social worker (47), behavior analyst (42), 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.
