Therapists & Counselors in Lee's Summit, MO

191 licensed providers are registered in Lee's Summit — about 17.8 for every 10,000 residents.

Among the 276 places in Missouri big enough for the comparison to hold — at least a thousand residents, and a resident population that matches who is registered there — Lee's Summit ranks 171st by providers per resident.

That puts Lee's Summit 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, Lee's Summit ranks 31st by count.

By licence type the breakdown is professional counselor (63), clinical social worker (35), social worker (24), mental health counselor (21), with 6 further types making up the remainder.

No single licence type dominates here — professional counselor and clinical 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.

Registered addresses are spread across 5 ZIP codes. The map above sizes each ZIP by how many providers are registered there — clustering usually follows medical districts and commercial corridors rather than population.

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.
