Therapists & Counselors in Defiance, OH

There are 131 licensed providers registered in Defiance. The two most common licence types are social worker (34) and counselor (24).

That is roughly 10.2 providers per square mile of land area, or 77 per 10,000 residents.

A figure well above the median usually means more choice and shorter waits than most of Ohio — 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 706 places in Ohio with at least one registered provider, Defiance ranks 102nd by count.

By licence type the breakdown is social worker (34), counselor (24), addiction (substance use disorder) counselor (22), mental health counselor (19), 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.

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.
