It counts everyone with a registered address here, including people who have retired, moved or stopped taking new clients — nothing forces those records to be updated. Read it as an encouraging upper bound rather than a promise.

Evanston is the 3rd largest concentration in Illinois by number of providers, accounting for 2% of the state total.

The largest single group is clinical social worker, at 388 providers or 29% of the total. Licence titles vary between states for what is often similar training and scope, so the mix here partly reflects how Illinois licenses its providers.

The largest single group, clinical social worker, accounts for 30% 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.

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.

These counts come from the federal NPI registry. A provider appears here if they hold an active NPI with a practice address in this area — it does not mean they are currently accepting new clients, and the registry does not record insurance, fees or availability.
