Therapy in Providence by the numbers
Based on 2748 licensed therapists across the US, including 4 in Providence · Updated July 2026
What "near me" means for therapy in Providence, RI
Near can mean a short drive, a stop on your commute, or a video session from your own couch. FindSupport lists 4 licensed therapists in Providence.
In a city known for its creative energy and academic rigor, many people start by deciding what matters most to them — a short trip, evening hours, or a particular way of working. Every Providence profile lists the therapist's focus areas and says whether they see clients online.
Expect to pay around $120–$250 per session in Providence. Ask about insurance and sliding-scale fees in your first message.
Local or online: making the choice in Providence
Some therapists offer both formats — profiles show who offers online sessions. If traffic, childcare, or shift work make an office visit hard, video sessions remove the trip.
A practical test: which one will you still manage in a hard week? Pick that, and ask the therapist whether switching later is possible.

Session format, insurance and nearby options in Providence

Where Providence stands for therapy and counseling options
Providence and Warwick have the most listings in Rhode Island, 4 each, out of 8 statewide. It's a small local pool by national standards (91 of 120 listed cities have more), so plan to widen to video sessions if the first few don't fit.
No Providence profile mentions video yet, while 6% of profiles nationwide do. Ask anyway, since some therapists offer it without saying so.
Typical fees in Providence run $120–$250 a session: above the middle of our city guides nationally ($90–$200).
