Therapists & Counselors in Gulfport, FL

Gulfport has 126 licensed providers with a registered practice address, across 10 licence types.

That is roughly 45.6 providers per square mile of land area.

What that means in practice: the licence-type breakdown below still describes real people with real registrations, but it describes one employer's staff, so the variety you see is that organisation's hiring rather than a local market. If you are looking for an independent practice in Gulfport, the nearby places listed at the foot of this page are a better starting point than the count at the top.

Of the 551 places in Florida with at least one registered provider, Gulfport ranks 126th by count.

By licence type the breakdown is mental health counselor (74), clinical social worker (15), social worker (13), counselor (4), with 6 further types making up the remainder.

Just over half of the licensed providers here — 60% — hold the same licence, mental health counselor. Where one type dominates like this, the practical question is less which letters someone has than whether they work with what you are bringing to 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.
