Therapists & Counselors in Abbeville, LA

There are 35 licensed providers registered in Abbeville. The two most common licence types are addiction (substance use disorder) counselor (14) and counselor (5).

With a population of 10,861, that works out to 32.2 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.

That puts Abbeville close to the middle for Louisiana. Expect to contact several providers rather than one, and to find that availability rather than choice is the binding constraint.

Of the 304 places in Louisiana with at least one registered provider, Abbeville ranks 68th by count.

By licence type the breakdown is addiction (substance use disorder) counselor (14), counselor (5), clinical social worker (5), social worker (4), with 5 further types making up the remainder.

The largest single group, addiction (substance use disorder) counselor, accounts for 40% 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.

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.
