In-Home Behavior Therapist
About The Position
The In-Home Behavior Therapist provides one-on-one applied behavior analysis (ABA) therapy to children with autism, supporting their learning, skill development, and growth. Therapists work with children ages 18 months to 12 years and implement individualized treatment plans while collecting data on each child’s progress.

The role offers guaranteed full-time hours regardless of patient cancellations, small caseloads, and opportunities for raises and promotion.
