Therapists & Counselors in Lakewood, NY

There are 11 licensed providers registered in Lakewood. The two most common licence types are psychiatrist (4) and mental health counselor (2).

With a population of 2,922, that works out to 37.6 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.

Density is the closest public proxy for how hard it will be to get an appointment, but it is only a proxy. It counts everyone with a registered address here, including people who have retired, moved or stopped taking new clients — nothing forces those records to be updated. Read it as a cautionary upper bound rather than a promise.

Lakewood is the 464th largest concentration in New York by number of providers, accounting for under 0.1% of the state total.

The largest single group is psychiatrist, at 4 providers or 36% of the total. Licence titles vary between states for what is often similar training and scope, so the mix here partly reflects how New York licenses its providers.

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

11 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: 115,464 licensed providers are registered across New York, and many practices now offer appointments by video. The towns listed further down are the next places to look.

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.
