Setting: Center-Based ABA therapy; includes 1:1 services, groups, parent trainings, sibling events, and vacation events

Population Served: 3-15 years old

Years in Operation: Founded in 2004

What You'll Actually Be Doing (aka no surprises later):

• See clients weekly and conduct assessments, create goals, and write behavior plans and programs
• Supervise and train RBTs; collect and analyze data
• Consult with families, make recommendations, and collaborate with other providers
• Run social skills groups, ABA events, and parent trainings; prepare materials and attend meetings

Caseload & Support Transparency (because details matter):

Caseload size: Guaranteed under 10 (typically 7–8 clients)

Billable hour expectations: 24–25 hours per week

Support Structure:

• Open-door policy with the Executive Director; frequent case meetings for brainstorming and problem-solving
• Mentorship is an integral part of the role — BCBAs are supported daily and never left to navigate cases alone
• Billing is flexible and BCBA-determined — hours are structured around client needs, not company financial targets

Compensation & Perks (real ones):

Base salary: $70,000–$88,000

Bonus structure: Annual $1,000 bonus for full-time staff

PTO: Paid vacation and sick time; one mental health day per year

Paid Holidays: A minimum of 7 each year

CEU support: Reimbursement for BACB renewals and approved CEU events (~$1,000-1,500 annual budget)

Supervision/mentorship provided: Frequent individual and group case meetings with the Executive Director; BCBAs have full autonomy over how they supervise their cases; no billing-tied supervision pressure

Schedule flexibility / remote options: Mostly in-person (9:15–5:45); remote work available for program writing, authorizations, and parent consultations when HIPAA-compliant setup is in place

Additional perks:

• Team building activities and staff recognition programs
• One mental health day per year; liability insurance and workers' comp provided
• On-site cafe, community garden, and gym

If it's listed here, it's real.

  Why This Is a Green-Flag Clinic

This organization meets our standards in:

• Manageable, guaranteed caseloads
• Long-standing clinical reputation built over two decades
• Low staff turnover
• Billing autonomy — BCBAs set their own hours based on client need, not company quotas
• Ongoing mentorship and daily support built into the culture

We don't certify everyone, and we definitely don't promote clinics we wouldn't work at ourselves.

  You'd Be a Great Fit If You:

Are a credentialed BCBA (and LABA in Massachusetts)

Care deeply about ethical, high-quality ABA

Thrive in a small, close-knit team where your work is seen and valued

Want clinical autonomy without the isolation — support is always available

Believe the best ABA is driven by what each child needs, not what looks good on a billing report
