Washington recorded 5 behavioral health provider deactivations in this week’s NPI registry update, representing 3% of the national total. All five records were individuals, while organizations accounted for 0 deactivations. The update covers the week ending September 6, 2026. Because NPI deactivation is an administrative registry status, the records do not by themselves establish that a provider has stopped practicing or that a license action occurred.
Credentials
The retired taxonomy records were evenly distributed across five categories. RBT, Clinical Social Worker, Addiction (Substance Use Disorder) Counselor, Mental Health Counselor and Counselor each appeared once, or 20% of the state total. No single credential category led the group, indicating a mixed set of behavioral health roles rather than a concentration in one credential type. The taxonomy labels describe registry classifications and may not capture every role, setting or service a provider has held.
Cities
Seattle had 2 deactivations, the highest city count. Everett, Olympia and Vancouver each had one. Seattle therefore accounted for two of the state’s five records, while the remaining deactivations were spread across three cities. That distribution shows a modest Seattle concentration but no broad geographic cluster in the available records.
These figures describe NPI registry activity for Washington’s Behavioral Health Providers segment during the week, not a confirmed measure of workforce exits or changes in local service availability.
