192nd of 432 places in GA
population 17,604
Port Wentworth has 8 licensed providers with a registered practice address, across 6 licence types.
Among the 267 places in Georgia big enough for the comparison to hold — at least a thousand residents, and a resident population that matches who is registered there — Port Wentworth ranks 243rd by providers per resident.
Practically, a figure this far below the median means planning for a longer search. Widening the area you are willing to travel to, asking about video sessions anywhere in Georgia, and looking at community clinics as well as private practice all tend to matter more here than they would in a large city.
Of the 432 places in Georgia with at least one registered provider, Port Wentworth ranks 192nd by count.
By licence type the breakdown is professional counselor (3), counselor (1), addiction (substance use disorder) counselor (1), mental health counselor (1), with 2 further types making up the remainder.
The largest single group, professional counselor, accounts for 38% 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.
8 is a small enough number that availability, not choice, will decide how quickly you are seen. Licences are issued at state level, so the practical pool is usually wider than this page shows: 29,281 licensed providers are registered across Georgia, and many practices now offer appointments by video. The towns listed further down are the next places to look.
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.
