Child Autism Therapist

Action Behavior Centers - ABA Therapy for Autism

Overview We welcome applicants of all experience levels, from entry-level to seasoned professionals, to apply for our Behavior Therapist role—everyone brings unique value to our team! At Action Behavior Centers, we’re driven by our core values—learning, caring, fun, team, and excellence. We foster a diverse, inclusive, and collaborative environment where creativity thrives, and both personal and professional growth are encouraged. In our 1:1 ABA setting, you’ll work hands-on with children (18 months to 8 years) using ethical, evidence-based ABA techniques in a supportive, center-based environment. With top-tier supervision, ongoing training, and a passionate team by your side, you’ll make a real impact every day. Responsibilities Apply the principles of one-on-one ABA therapy to help children with Autism reach their full potential by reading treatment plans and program descriptions, implementing treatment in line with written descriptions, collecting data, writing insurance notes, and implementing feedback provided by the supervisor during observation sessions. Support the development of children in early childhood (ages 18 months to 8 years) through engaging and fun therapeutic activities. Collaborate with a team to optimize treatment, safety, and a positive center experience. Engage with children through play, movement, and imitation, maintaining energy and enthusiasm to foster a joyful atmosphere. Communicate effectively with stakeholders (peers, families, supervisors) to coordinate activities, celebrate successes, and advocate for personal needs. Job Requirements Lift and move with children in a fast-paced environment, including the ability to lift up to 30 lbs, bend, squat, and move quickly on the floor to stay engaged with young children and maintain safety. Maintain an environment conducive to therapy; keep play spaces tidy, organized, and conducive to a stimulating experience for children. Multitask to balance actions, decisions, or conversations while prioritizing safety for all parties. Support teams by working cohesively as a center, neighborhood, and region. Travel to nearby centers may be required. Reliable transportation and a valid driver’s license are required. Must be at least 18 years old and have a high school diploma or GED equivalent. Complete the RBT certification process within 20 days of employment by passing a 40-hour training curriculum, hands-on competency assessment, registering for an exam, and passing the board’s exam. Notes We are a responsive employer and will be in touch within 24 hours of applying.
