Texas recorded 10 behavioral health provider deactivations in the NPI registry during the week of August 31 through September 6, 2026, accounting for 5% of the national total. The records included 9 individuals and 1 organization, indicating that the week’s activity was concentrated among individual providers rather than organizational entities. NPI deactivation is an administrative status change and does not, by itself, establish that a provider has stopped practicing or that a license action occurred.
Credentials
Clinical Social Worker was the most frequently retired taxonomy, with 4 records, followed by RBT with 3. Addiction (Substance Use Disorder) Counselor accounted for 2 records, while Professional Counselor accounted for 1. The credential mix therefore spans social work, applied behavior analysis support and counseling roles, without a single category representing most of the Texas records.
City Distribution
Houston had the largest city total, with 2 deactivations. Dallas, Katy, Athens and Lampasas each had 1. The remaining records were distributed among San Antonio, Kyle, Cedar Park and Rowlett, each also appearing once in the provider data. Houston’s lead is limited, while the broader distribution across cities does not show a strong geographic concentration in this weekly snapshot.
These figures describe changes to NPI registry records for Texas behavioral health providers and should be read as administrative workforce data rather than a direct measure of service availability.
