Wyoming registered 14 behavioral health providers in the latest CMS NPI registry weekly update, accounting for less than 1% of the national total. This small volume reflects the state's lower population density and potentially limited behavioral health infrastructure. Of these, 6 new providers were added this week, also representing the total new additions for the year to date.
Credential Landscape and ABA Workforce
The recent additions in Wyoming show no new BCBA or RBT credentials. This indicates that the new providers are not directly expanding the state's applied behavior analysis (ABA) workforce or its supervisory capacity for RBTs this week. Instead, the new individual providers primarily hold credentials such as LPC, MA, PPC, M.ED., ED.S., MSW, LCSW, and PPC, signaling growth in general counseling and social work services rather than ABA-specific roles.
Provider Demographics
Of the 9 individual providers registered, 67% are female and 33% are male, a gender distribution typical of the broader behavioral health field. The remaining 5 organizations include entities like Teton Behavior Therapy and Hometown Freedom Healthcare, LLC, though no single organization appeared multiple times in this week's data. Additionally, 3 individuals reported multiple taxonomies, suggesting a diverse service offering among some providers.
The absence of new ABA-specific credentials suggests that while general behavioral health services are seeing some growth, the ABA workforce in Wyoming did not expand through this week's NPI updates, potentially impacting access for individuals requiring ABA therapy.
