California recorded 18 deactivations in the Behavioral Health Providers segment during 2026-W39, the week covered by the registry update. The state accounted for 9% of the national total. The records comprised 15 individuals and 3 organizations. An NPI deactivation is an administrative change in the federal registry; it does not by itself indicate a license action or confirm that a provider has stopped practicing.
Credentials and locations
Mental Health Counselor was the most frequently listed taxonomy, with 7 records, followed by Addiction (Substance Use Disorder) Counselor with 3. Case Manager/Care Coordinator and RBT each had 2 records, while Psychologist had 1. The credential mix is led by mental health counseling, with smaller counts across substance-use counseling, care coordination, behavioral technician and psychology classifications. These taxonomy labels describe registry records and do not establish current work status.
San Jose and Los Angeles had the highest city counts, with 2 deactivations each. Long Beach, Mission Viejo and South Pasadena each had 1. The leading cities therefore account for only a small portion of the statewide records, with the listed locations spread across multiple communities rather than concentrated in one city. City counts reflect the addresses in the registry, not necessarily where care was delivered.

The weekly figures show administrative record changes in California’s behavioral health segment; they do not measure active workforce, service availability or changes in local care capacity.
