Our full accreditation with the BHCOE means we have been tested and every area of our business and clinical operations have been vetted and approved for the highest level of excellence in our industry.
Our Professional Staff:
Our ABA therapists are known as Registered Behavior Technicians (RBTs). RBTs are certified and credentialed by the Behavior Analyst Certification Board (BACB). These RBT professionals are the people who spend the most time working directly with your child. Our RBTs follow the direction and work under the supervision of our licensed Board Certified Behavior Analysts (BCBAs). RBTs follow an individualized, customized treatment plan designed specifically for your child that is crafted by one of our BCBAs.
Our Board Certified Behavior Analysts (BCBAs) are the treatment team leaders. A BCBA will first assess your child and then design a individualized treatment program to target key, pivotal areas for intervention. BCBAs are licensed behavioral health professionals with an educational background (at least a Master's degree) in Applied Behavior Analysis, psychology, child development and related academic disciplines. BCBAs have undergone rigorous training and supervision in their disciplines before becoming licensed and qualified to practice ABA. This process includes passing a rigorous exam comparable to what a lawyer does when passing the bar exam or what a doctor does when take a medical licensing exam.
Clinical Director/ Lead BCBA: Our Clinical Director or Lead BCBA ensures that the interventions that are included in your child's treatment program are evidence-based and have shown to be effective in helping your child acquire skills and reduce problematic and interfering behaviors. These staff ensure that any behavioral intervention or protocol used with your child has been researched and has demonstrated effectiveness over time.
