Las Vegas's behavioral health sector recorded 56 total providers in the latest CMS NPI registry update, representing a small fraction of the national weekly total. This activity includes 21 new providers registered this week, contributing to 22 new registrations this year. The total comprises 45 individual practitioners and 11 organizations, indicating a mix of independent professionals and clinic-based services in the region.
ABA Credential Mix
Within the individual practitioner data, there are 7 BCBA providers and 8 RBT providers. These credential categories are not mutually exclusive, though no providers in this update held both BCBA and RBT credentials. The close ratio of BCBAs to RBTs, approximately 1:1.14, suggests either a highly supervised environment with a low RBT-to-BCBA caseload or a relatively nascent RBT workforce that is still building its supervisory capacity. Additionally, 12 providers reported multiple taxonomies, indicating a diverse skill set beyond primary ABA roles, including professionals with credentials like LCSW and various medical degrees.
Workforce Demographics and Trends
The individual provider workforce in Las Vegas is predominantly female, with 33 practitioners, accounting for 73% of individual providers. 12 practitioners identify as male, making up 27%. No nonbinary providers were registered in this update. PSYCHPLUS MEDICAL ASSOCIATES PLLC appeared 2 entries, suggesting a notable presence in the local organizational landscape. The consistent influx of new providers, particularly within the ABA and broader behavioral health fields, points to an expanding workforce poised to address the growing demand for services in the Las Vegas area.
