Therapists & Counselors in Gautier, MS

There are 157 licensed providers registered in Gautier. The two most common licence types are mental health counselor (100) and addiction (substance use disorder) counselor (22).

That is roughly 5.2 providers per square mile of land area.

What that means in practice: the licence-type breakdown below still describes real people with real registrations, but it describes one employer's staff, so the variety you see is that organisation's hiring rather than a local market. If you are looking for an independent practice in Gautier, the nearby places listed at the foot of this page are a better starting point than the count at the top.

Gautier is the 18th largest concentration in Mississippi by number of providers, accounting for 1.4% of the state total.

The largest single group is mental health counselor, at 100 providers or 64% of the total. Licence titles vary between states for what is often similar training and scope, so the mix here partly reflects how Mississippi licenses its providers.

Just over half of the licensed providers here — 64% — hold the same licence, mental health counselor. Where one type dominates like this, the practical question is less which letters someone has than whether they work with what you are bringing to them.

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.
