Therapists & Counselors in Oxford, MS

There are 575 licensed providers registered in Oxford. The two most common licence types are mental health counselor (271) and social worker (150).

That is roughly 21.6 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 Oxford, the nearby places listed at the foot of this page are a better starting point than the count at the top.

Oxford is the 3rd largest concentration in Mississippi by number of providers, accounting for 5.8% of the state total.

The largest single group is mental health counselor, at 271 providers or 47% 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.

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

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.
