New Jersey's behavioral health provider registry now stands at 166 active providers, representing 2% of the national weekly total tracked by CMS. The state added 1 provider this week and 106 so far this year, signaling continued workforce expansion but at a measured pace compared to higher-volume states. The concentration of providers across 117 individuals and 49 organizations reflects a mixed landscape of independent practitioners and emerging group structures.

The credential mix reveals supervision constraints typical of states building ABA capacity. New Jersey has 19 BCBAs and 16 RBTs, a ratio that underscores a persistent bottleneck: insufficient board-certified supervisors relative to technicians. Only 1 provider holds dual BCBA+RBT credentials, a credential pairing that signals career progression and operational flexibility. Beyond ABA credentials, the registry includes 13 LCSWs, 4 LACs, and scattered clinical psychologists and speech-language pathologists, reflecting the multidisciplinary nature of behavioral health in the state.

The workforce skews heavily female, at 84%, with 15 male and 4 nonbinary providers. No single organization dominates the landscape; Oaks Integrated Care, Inc. appears twice, the only notable org clustering in the data. Providers concentrate in Westampton, Parsippany, Cherry Hill, Hoboken, and Lakewood, suggesting geographic clustering around North Jersey population centers.

With 28 providers holding multiple taxonomies, New Jersey is building a cross-disciplinary network, but the BCBA shortage remains the critical constraint on ABA service capacity expansion.
