Vermont registered 13 behavioral health providers in the latest CMS NPI registry update. This week, the state added 1 new provider, contributing 0% to the national total, and has seen 5 new providers join the workforce this year. This minimal contribution reflects Vermont's smaller size and potentially slower growth in certain behavioral health sectors.
Credential Snapshot
Of the 13 providers in Vermont, only 1 was identified with an RBT credential. Specifically, one provider held the 'BT' credential and was listed under the RBT taxonomy, indicating an overlap in how these roles are identified. Crucially, there were 0 BCBA credentials reported, and 0 dual BCBA+RBT credentials. This complete absence of BCBAs means that Vermont lacks the essential supervisory infrastructure required for RBTs to deliver supervised ABA therapy services. The majority of other listed credentials, such as 2 LCMHC and 2 M.A., point to a workforce primarily composed of mental health counselors and psychologists rather than ABA-specific practitioners.
Workforce Demographics
The individual provider demographic in Vermont shows a slight male majority, with 6 male providers making up 55% of individuals, compared to 5 female providers at 45%. There were 2 organizations listed in this dataset, but no particular organization appeared multiple times, suggesting a decentralized or varied organizational landscape. No notable multi-state chains were present in this week's data for Vermont.
This data suggests that access to supervised ABA services in Vermont remains extremely limited, indicating a significant gap in the state's capacity for comprehensive ABA treatment.
