Therapists & Counselors in Ithaca, NY

Ithaca has 561 licensed providers with a registered practice address, across 10 licence types.

With a population of 33,632, that works out to 166.8 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.

A figure well above the median usually means more choice and shorter waits than most of New York — 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 998 places in New York with at least one registered provider, Ithaca ranks 17th by count.

By licence type the breakdown is clinical social worker (196), social worker (107), mental health counselor (71), addiction (substance use disorder) counselor (33), 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.

Registered addresses are spread across 4 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.
