Texas recorded 665 providers in the latest CMS NPI registry weekly update, representing 7% of the national weekly total. With 354 new providers added this week, Texas remains one of the country’s largest sources of behavioral health provider activity. That concentration signals a large, expanding service market, although NPI registrations include both individuals and organizations and do not measure active caseloads or treatment capacity.

ABA Workforce Mix

The registry lists 46 BCBA credentials and 160 RBT credentials, plus 6 dual BCBA-RBT credentials. These categories overlap: dual-credentialed providers are included in both the BCBA and RBT counts, so they should not be added as separate people or treated as mutually exclusive shares. Even with that caveat, the larger RBT pool points to substantial direct-service capacity, while the smaller BCBA group indicates a more limited supervisory layer. Because BCBAs supervise RBTs and oversee treatment planning, continued growth in supervisory capacity will matter for expanding ABA access.

Demographics and Organizations

Of 547 individuals, 472 were female, 59 male and 16 nonbinary. The gender data show a strongly female workforce, consistent with behavioral health and ABA employment patterns. The registry also includes 118 organizations, with MY HEALTH MY RESOURCES OF TARRANT COUNTY appearing 4 times. SETON FAMILY OF HOSPITALS, AVERA USA LLC, COMMUNITY OPTIONS, INC., CENTRAL PLAINS CENTER, TWINKLE AUTISM THERAPY, LLC and TWINKLE PEDS PSYCH MEDICAL GROUP PA each appeared 2 times.

Overall, the update suggests Texas is adding providers across a broad behavioral health market, while its ABA workforce continues to grow around RBT delivery and a comparatively smaller BCBA supervisory base.
