San Fernando Valley recorded 48 providers in the latest CMS NPI registry weekly update, representing 0% of the national weekly total reported in the dataset. The registry added 24 new providers this week and lists 29 new providers this year. Records include 38 individuals and 10 organizations, signaling a market with substantial recent registration activity across clinicians and provider entities. NPI counts are not a direct measure of active practices, staffed locations or available appointments.
ABA Credential Mix
The update identifies 4 BCBA providers and 17 RBT providers, with no providers listed as holding both credentials. The gap between behavior analysts and registered technicians suggests a workforce weighted toward direct service, while the smaller BCBA pool may constrain supervision capacity as clinics add RBTs. The registry also reports six other named credentials, including M.D., LCSW, MSW, LMFT, MA, AMFT, ACSW and CCC-SLP. Credential and taxonomy categories overlap and are not mutually exclusive; nine providers have multiple taxonomies, so classification totals should not be added together.
Workforce Demographics and Geography
Women account for 25 providers, or 66% of the reported workforce. Men account for 7 providers, or 18%, and nonbinary providers account for 6 providers, or 16%. No notable organization appears multiple times in the update. Burbank leads the listed cities with 8 providers, followed by Van Nuys and Woodland Hills with 7 providers each; Encino and Sherman Oaks each have 5 providers. The data points to expanding provider activity, but ABA access will depend on converting RBT growth into services supported by sufficient BCBA supervision.
