Description

Applied ABA Job Type: Part-Time / Full-Time About Us Applied ABA Therapy, is a rapidly growing healthcare company dedicated to providing innovative and effective treatment for children with autism and other neurodevelopmental differences. Our mission is to deliver life-changing care—one child, one family, one community at a time. We foster a collaborative, inclusive, and growth-oriented culture, celebrating diversity and ensuring equal opportunities for all. Join our team to make a meaningful impact in the lives of children and families! Job Summary As a Registered Behavior Technician (RBT) or Behavior Technician (BT), you will work one-on-one with children with autism spectrum disorder, implementing individualized treatment plans designed by Board-Certified Behavior Analysts (BCBAs). You will use evidence-based behavior-analytic strategies to help children acquire new skills, improve communication and socialization, and reduce challenging behaviors in a fun, engaging, and supportive environment. This role offers comprehensive training, professional development, and opportunities for career advancement. What You’ll Do Provide direct behavior-analytic services in a 1:1 group setting, delivering therapy in homes and daycare environments to meet each child’s unique needs. Implement positive behavior strategies, including antecedent and consequence (reinforcement) interventions, as outlined in individualized treatment plans developed by BCBAs. Collect and record precise behavioral data (e.g., A-B-C, count, frequency, duration, latency, inter-response time, event, and interval-based recording) during sessions to track progress and inform clinical decisions. Build and maintain therapeutic relationships by establishing rapport with clients and their families, fostering trust and engagement in the treatment process. Collaborate closely with families, BCBAs, and multidisciplinary team members to ensure consistent application of behavior management techniques across all settings without disruption to the environment. Assist with individualized assessment procedures, such as conducting preference assessments and functional analyses, to identify motivators and tailor interventions. Document session notes in real-time, ensuring accurate and timely completion of all required documentation, including data collection and progress reports. Educate parents/guardians on reinforcement strategies, intervention techniques, and behavior management tools when requested to promote generalization of skills outside therapy sessions. Promote safe and socially acceptable replacement behaviors to build a repertoire of communication, social interaction, problem-solving, and daily living skills. Ensure proper implementation of behavior programs by training and retraining staff as needed, routinely communicating with team members to maintain fidelity of interventions. Engage clients in age-appropriate leisure activities (e.g., games, crafts) to keep them active and motivated during therapy times, enhancing their overall experience. Review updates for clients, including new programs or scheduled sessions, and prepare to implement these changes effectively. Monitor and evaluate client progress using behavior-analytic methods, identifying barriers to success and making data-driven recommendations to supervisors and BCBAs. Participate in ongoing training and professional development to stay current with best practices in applied behavior analysis and enhance your clinical skills. Represent the Applied ABA Therapy program with professionalism in all interactions, maintaining appropriate dress, demeanor, and communication with families and colleagues.
