Behavioral Health Technician ABA
About The Position
As a Behavioral Health Technician, you will provide one-to-one services to children and adolescents ages 2–24 who experience identified emotional and/or behavioral disturbances. With guidance from a Behavioral Consultant, you will help clients improve independent, age-appropriate functioning so that they require less or no service intervention. You will travel daily to clients’ homes, schools, or other service locations and follow prescribed treatment plans, providing behavioral and treatment interventions and consequences. The role also involves setting boundaries with clients and families to prevent dependency on your services, supporting parents and adult professionals, and educating and training parents and young adults to use these skills. Services should include positive reinforcement and be culturally aware and competent. The position offers a stated pay rate of $22.50 per hour. Full-time employees receive paid vacation days that increase with tenure, separate sick leave that rolls over each year, up to 10 paid holidays, medical, dental, and vision plan options, DailyPay access, and training, development, and continuing education credits for licensure requirements. All employees are offered a 401(k), free licensure supervision, pet insurance, an employee assistance program, national shopping, travel, Verizon, and entertainment discounts through Perks @Pathways, mileage reimbursement, and a cellphone stipend. Benefit options vary by state and county.
