Job Description

Join Butterfly Effects - Where BCBAs Lead
$10,000 Sign On Bonus

At Butterfly Effects, we're not just another ABA therapy provider - we're a BCBA-led organization dedicated to empowering you with unmatched support, professional growth, and a family-centric approach. Led by Dr. Steve Woolf, PhD, BCBA-D (President) and Molly McGinnis, M.Ed., BCBA (Vice President of Clinical Services) , we prioritize your success so you can focus on what matters; making a socially meaningful change in the lives of children and families .

Why BCBAs Choose Butterfly Effects

  • BCBA Leadership: BCBAs hold key roles across management and senior leadership. Your expertise shapes clinical practice and company direction, not just individual caseloads.
  • Ethical, High-Quality Standards: As a fully accredited BHCOE organization, we uphold BACB guidelines and prioritize meaningful supervision, family involvement, and evidence-based ABA. No rigid quotas.
  • On-the-Ground Support: Each market has a locally or regionally based clinical director available for real-time guidance and collaboration. You are never working in isolation.
  • Clinical Autonomy: Design customized treatment plans tailored to each client's needs, with full access to tools, resources, and interdisciplinary collaboration.
  • Stable Growth Paths: Clear advancement to Assistant Regional Director, Center Director, and Regional Director as we expand nationwide.
  • Your Freedom: No non-compete clauses.

Compensation That Reflects Your Value

Our BCBAs earn above the national average. Here is what your total package looks like:

  • Base Salary: $85,000 - $95,000
  • Performance Bonus: Quarterly incentives up to $12,000 annually
  • Total Potential: Up to $107,000

Additional Benefits

  • PhD Support: University partnership discounts plus $2,000/year tuition support toward your doctorate.
  • Time Off: Generous PTO and paid holidays.
  • Health Benefits: Medical, dental, vision, life insurance, supplemental coverage, and HSA options.
  • Retirement: 401(k) to build your future.

Professional Development & Clinical Community

We invest in your growth because better BCBAs produce better outcomes - for clients and for our organization.

  • Case Reviews: Monthly clinical case reviews with all peers and clinical leadership.
  • "PD Speaker Series": Internal CEU presentations led by thought leaders - experts you may only otherwise see at national conferences.
  • Mentorship: New or early-career BCBAs receive personalized guidance from experienced BCBA mentors.
  • Research & Publications: Our team has contributed to 15+ publications in journals including the Journal of Applied Behavior Analysis. Collaborate and present at national conferences.
  • CEU Funding: In-house CEUs annually, plus funding for external conferences, live events, and our annual Clinical Conference.

Your Role at Butterfly Effects

As a BCBA on our interdisciplinary team, you will:

  • Lead & Supervise: Oversee RBTs and BTs to ensure consistent, high-quality ABA service delivery.
  • Assess & Plan: Perform functional behavior assessments, develop individualized treatment goals, and create evidence-based intervention plans.
  • Empower Families: Lead monthly caregiver training sessions to build long-term family capacity.
  • Coordinate Care: Collaborate with therapists, educators, and other professionals for holistic client outcomes.

Qualifications

  • Master's degree in Applied Behavior Analysis, Psychology, or a related field.
  • Active BCBA certification from the BACB.
  • Passion for working with children and families affected by autism spectrum disorder.
  • Strong communication and collaboration skills for interdisciplinary teams.

All experience levels welcome - we tailor opportunities to your career stage.

About Butterfly Effects

Since 2005, Butterfly Effects has transformed the lives of over 14,000 families through individualized ABA therapy. Our butterfly logo symbolizes love, rebirth, and metamorphosis - mirroring our commitment to helping children and families thrive.

We are co-founders of the National Coalition for Access to Autism Services (NCAAS) and the Louisiana Coalition for Access to Autism Services (LCAAS) - two nonprofits dedicated to expanding access to ABA regardless of socio-economic status.

At Butterfly Effects, you will find more than a job - you will find a mission. Visit to learn more and apply.
