Therapists & Counselors in Medicine Lodge, KS

There are 2 licensed providers registered in Medicine Lodge. The two most common licence types are social worker (1) and marriage & family therapist (1).

With a population of 1,707, that works out to 11.7 providers per 10,000 residents. Density is a rough measure: providers register a practice address, which may be a clinic serving a much wider area than the city itself.

Density is the closest public proxy for how hard it will be to get an appointment, but it is only a proxy. 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 a cautionary upper bound rather than a promise.

Medicine Lodge is the 176th largest concentration in Kansas by number of providers, accounting for under 0.1% of the state total.

No single licence type dominates here — social worker and marriage & family therapist are within reach of each other. For most common reasons to seek therapy, the distinction between those licences matters less than availability and cost.

With only 2 providers registered locally, most people here will be looking beyond the town. Licences are issued at state level, so a provider anywhere in Kansas can generally see you by video — which makes the statewide figure the more useful one: 11,837 licensed providers are registered across Kansas. Asking specifically whether a practice takes remote appointments is usually the fastest way to widen the search.

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.
