Therapists & Counselors in St. George, LA

There are 1,074 licensed providers registered in St. George. The two most common licence types are mental health counselor (324) and clinical social worker (139).

That is roughly 18 providers per square mile of land area, or 136.8 per 10,000 residents.

A figure well above the median usually means more choice and shorter waits than most of Louisiana — though supply is not the same as availability. Plenty of providers in a well-served area are full, out of network, or private-pay only.

Of the 304 places in Louisiana with at least one registered provider, St. George ranks 4th by count.

By licence type the breakdown is mental health counselor (324), clinical social worker (139), counselor (136), social worker (127), with 5 further types making up the remainder.

The largest single group, mental health counselor, accounts for 31% 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.
