Texas recorded 6 behavioral health provider deactivations in the NPI registry during the week of September 14–20, 2026, accounting for 4% of the national total. The records include 5 individuals and 1 organization. The deactivations were entered on September 17 and September 18. A registry deactivation is an administrative status change; by itself, it does not establish that a provider has stopped practicing or that a license action occurred.
Credentials and Cities
The listed credentials are spread across five categories, each represented by 1 record: Speech-Language Pathologist, Specialist, Mental Health Counselor, Addiction (Substance Use Disorder) Counselor and Psychologist. No credential appears more than once in the summary, so the data shows no dominant credential among these deactivations.
Plano, Houston, Kerrville, Dallas and Austin each had 1 record in the city breakdown. The organization was listed in Richmond, which is not among the five cities shown in that summary. The distribution across several cities suggests the reported records were geographically dispersed rather than concentrated in one of the listed cities. These counts describe this week’s registry changes, not the size or availability of local behavioral health workforces.
Registry Context
The weekly figures capture changes to NPI records in Texas and do not measure provider exits, service capacity or patient access. They offer a snapshot of deactivation activity by provider type, credential and location, with no single credential or listed city accounting for multiple records.
