New Hampshire added 10 behavioral health providers in the latest weekly CMS update, accounting for 0% of the national total. This indicates a minimal contribution to the national behavioral health workforce expansion this week, reflecting limited new activity in the state's behavioral health sector.
ABA Workforce Composition
Within the applied behavior analysis field, the update includes 2 Registered Behavior Technicians (RBTs). Notably, there were no new Board Certified Behavior Analysts (BCBAs) or individuals with dual BCBA and RBT credentials reported this week. This absence of new BCBAs, who provide critical supervision, alongside a small number of RBTs, suggests very limited growth in the state's ABA supervisory capacity from this week's enrollments. Beyond ABA-specific credentials, one individual listed an MA and another a BS, M.ED.
Provider Demographics and Organizations
Of the 8 individual providers added, the workforce is predominantly female, with women accounting for 75% (6 individuals) of the total. Male providers make up 13% (1 individual), and 13% (1 individual) identify as nonbinary. The update also included 2 organizations: Valor Ridge and Freedom to Thrive Therapy LLC. Two providers reported multiple taxonomies, indicating a breadth of service offerings beyond a single specialty.
The low number of new ABA-specific credentials this week suggests a static period for direct ABA service capacity growth in New Hampshire.
