Therapists & Counselors in Ferguson, MO

Ferguson has 22 licensed providers with a registered practice address, across 10 licence types.

With a population of 17,953, that works out to 12.3 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 Ferguson close to the middle for Missouri. Expect to contact several providers rather than one, and to find that availability rather than choice is the binding constraint.

Of the 489 places in Missouri with at least one registered provider, Ferguson ranks 132nd by count.

By licence type the breakdown is mental health counselor (5), clinical social worker (4), professional counselor (3), social worker (3), with 6 further types making up the remainder.

10 distinct licence types are registered here. The letters after a provider's name describe their training route rather than a ranking, and several of them do substantially overlapping work.

22 is a small enough number that availability, not choice, will decide how quickly you are seen. Licences are issued at state level, so the practical pool is usually wider than this page shows: 21,902 licensed providers are registered across Missouri, and many practices now offer appointments by video. The towns listed further down are the next places to look.

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.
