Phoenix recorded 59 providers in the latest CMS NPI registry weekly update, representing 1% of the national weekly total. The registry lists 31 new providers this week and 32 new providers this year. Records include 45 individuals and 14 organizations, indicating activity from both practitioners and behavioral health entities. The concentration signals a substantial local presence, although NPI records do not establish whether providers are actively practicing, accepting patients, staffing a site or offering ABA services.
ABA Credential Mix
The registry reports 5 BCBA providers and 23 RBT providers, plus 1 dual-credentialed provider holding both BCBA and RBT credentials. These categories overlap, so they should not be added as mutually exclusive workforce groups; the dual-credentialed provider may also be represented in the BCBA and RBT counts. The gap between the reported BCBA and RBT totals points to a much larger direct-care workforce than supervisory workforce. In ABA operations, that pattern can support service delivery but may constrain growth if BCBA capacity does not expand alongside RBT hiring. The update also identifies 16 providers with multiple taxonomies, another reason credential and taxonomy categories should not be treated as separate shares.
Workforce Demographics
Women account for 33 providers, or 73% of the reported workforce. Men account for 11 providers, or 24%, while one nonbinary provider represents 2%. CALVARY CENTER INC appears twice in the registry, indicating repeated organizational records rather than necessarily two distinct operating locations or programs. Overall, the update suggests Phoenix has active behavioral health and ABA workforce activity, with access growth likely to depend on expanding BCBA supervision capacity alongside its larger RBT pipeline.
