Behavior Therapist, Pediatric Aba - Clinic-Based

Keller, Texas, United States

Gracent Pediatric Therapy $18/hour to start. $20 once you're certified (paid training) MondayFriday, 8:00 am start.

This is an entry-level ABA therapy position. No prior clinical experience required. What we need is someone who is good with kids, stays calm under pressure, and wants to build a career in behavioral health, child psychology, education, or therapy.

What A Behavior Technician Does

As a Behavior Technician (BT) at Gracent Pediatric Therapy, you work 1:1 with autistic children ages 212. You implement therapy plans built by a Board Certified Behavior Analyst (BCBA) and show up consistently, session after session, as a steady, supportive presence in each child's day.

You'll spend the vast majority of your day with kids. You'll be on your feet. You'll be engaged. You'll be the most consistent adult in some of these kids' days, and that matters more than most job descriptions will tell you.

What We Do Differently

At Gracent Pediatric Therapy, we practice assent-based, neuroaffirming care, which means we follow each child's lead, honor their boundaries, and build trust before we build skills. You'll work alongside occupational therapists and speech-language pathologists in a genuinely interdisciplinary environment.
