Texas at a Glance
Behavioral-health NP roles across Texas span outpatient clinics, telehealth platforms, and integrated care settings, typically paying $120K–$170K, with demand elevated by nationwide prescriber shortages. Texas grants restricted practice authority requiring physician supervision, and the state's cost of living near the national average (index 107) directly shapes NP compensation expectations. The 35 active postings reflect strong demand for nurse practitioners across Texas, alongside the state's reimbursement structure and employer mix. 1 of the state's top metros carry a federal HRSA behavioral-health Health Professional Shortage Area (HPSA) designation, which is what puts National Health Service Corps Loan Repayment within reach for behavioral-health clinicians at NHSC-approved sites in those areas — awards follow the site's approval and the applicant's discipline, not the metro alone.
