What the count covers

7,172 NPPES records list speech-language pathologist (235Z00000X) as their primary taxonomy with a practice address in North Carolina: 66 per 100,000 residents against 59 nationally (50 states and D.C.). Charlotte has 693 of them (10%).

A record is a registration a provider made and keeps up to date: it shows neither that the provider is licensed nor that they still practice there. The state's own license search is the check.
