Dallas recorded 24 providers in the latest CMS NPI registry weekly update, representing 0% of the national weekly total. The registry lists 15 new providers this week and 16 new providers this year. Records include 17 individuals and 7 organizations, indicating activity from both practitioners and behavioral health entities. The concentration is modest in the national comparison, while the recent additions suggest continued registration activity in the city. NPI records do not establish whether a provider is actively practicing, accepting patients, staffing a site or offering ABA services.
ABA Credential Mix
The registry identifies 0 BCBA providers and 1 RBT provider. No providers are listed with dual BCBA-RBT credentials. The absence of a BCBA record means the update does not show local behavior-analytic supervisory capacity, while the single RBT record indicates limited direct-care representation in the registry. These credential counts should not be treated as a complete measure of Dallas’s ABA workforce: the broader records include counselors, psychologists, social workers, speech-language pathologists and other professionals, and 3 providers have multiple taxonomies. Credential and taxonomy categories can overlap and are not mutually exclusive.
Workforce Demographics
Women account for 17 providers, or 100% of the reported workforce. The registry reports 0 male providers and 0 nonbinary providers. No notable organizations were identified as appearing multiple times in the update. Dallas’s entries span mental health counseling, clinical social work, psychology, care coordination, speech-language pathology and other specialties, showing a multidisciplinary behavioral health footprint rather than an ABA-specific cohort. Overall, the update suggests that Dallas’s recorded ABA workforce is small and lacks listed BCBA supervision, a pattern that could limit access expansion unless supervisory capacity grows alongside direct-care staffing.
