Phoenix recorded 30 providers in the latest CMS NPI registry weekly update, representing 0% of the national weekly total reported in the dataset. The registry lists 18 new providers this week and 21 new providers this year. With 24 individual providers and six organizations, the activity shows a concentrated local registration market, although NPI records measure registrations rather than active practices, staffing levels or available appointments.
ABA Credential Mix
The registry identifies four BCBA providers and nine RBT providers. No providers are listed with dual BCBA and RBT credentials. These credential counts should not be treated as mutually exclusive with the broader taxonomy and credential fields: five providers have multiple taxonomies, and the records also include a BCABA and one provider credentialed as MA, BCBA, LBA. The larger RBT group indicates a stronger direct-care workforce presence than the BCBA group, while the smaller number of BCBAs suggests a limited supervisory pool for treatment teams. In ABA operations, that imbalance can affect caseload growth, supervision coverage and the ability to convert new technician registrations into service capacity.
Workforce Demographics
Women account for 19 providers, or 79% of the reported workforce. Men account for four providers, or 17%, and one provider is listed as nonbinary, or 4%. The registry reports no notable organization appearing multiple times, and all 30 records are assigned to Phoenix in the city field. The broader mix includes speech-language pathology, psychology, counseling and social work records alongside ABA credentials, indicating that the update captures behavioral health activity beyond ABA alone. Overall, Phoenix’s registry activity suggests continued workforce expansion, but access growth may depend on adding supervisory capacity alongside RBT and other direct-service providers.
