Job Description

Job Description

Love working with children but not the driving that often comes with in home ABA?

One Step Forward is hiring ABA Therapists / Behavior Technicians to join our team at our Forked River center.

We currently have opportunities during both morning and afternoon/early evening hours, making this a great fit whether you're looking for daytime hours, after school hours, or a combination of both.

You'll work one on one with children with autism while having your BCBA, fellow therapists, and clinical team right there at the center.

Pay: $22–$32 per hour based on experience

Why Therapists Enjoy Center Based ABA

Working in a center gives you the independence of working one on one with your client without feeling like you're working alone.

You'll have:

• No travel between clients

• Morning and afternoon/early evening opportunities

• Consistent hours in one location

• One on one work with children

• Ongoing BCBA supervision and clinical guidance

• A team of therapists and clinical staff working alongside you

• Support from our administrative team

• Opportunities to build hands on ABA experience

What Your Day Will Look Like

You'll work directly with children using individualized ABA treatment programs developed and supervised by a Board Certified Behavior Analyst (BCBA).

Depending on your client's goals, you'll help build skills in areas such as communication, social interaction, play, independence, daily living, and appropriate replacement behaviors.

You'll also:

• Implement individualized skill acquisition programs

• Follow behavior intervention and behavior reduction programs

• Use evidence based ABA strategies including reinforcement and prompting

• Collect accurate data throughout sessions

• Complete electronic session documentation

• Communicate regularly with your supervising BCBA

• Help children practice skills throughout their everyday center routines and activities

Morning or Afternoon — Find the Schedule That Fits

We're currently looking for therapists with availability during weekday mornings as well as weekday afternoons and early evenings.

You do not need to be available for every time period. We're looking for dependable therapists who can maintain a consistent schedule based on the hours they commit to.

This makes the position a great option for someone looking for part time daytime hours, after school hours, or additional ABA hours throughout the week.

Who We're Looking For

Previous ABA experience

Relevant experience may include:

• ABA Therapist

• Behavior Technician

• Registered Behavior Technician (RBT)

• Paraprofessional

• Special education aide

• Behavioral health professional

Experience working with children with autism or developmental disabilities.

One Location. A Whole Team Behind You.

Our Forked River center gives therapists the opportunity to focus on their clients while having the support of a clinical team around them.

You won't be driving from home to home or working by yourself in the field. You'll be part of a center environment where therapists, BCBAs, and staff work together to help children make meaningful progress.

If you're looking for competitive pay, flexible morning or afternoon opportunities, strong BCBA support, and meaningful one on one work with children, we'd love to meet you.
