Description

At Soar Autism Center, we are dedicated to enhancing the lives of children on the autism spectrum. As we strive to innovate and build a better model of care for kids, the role of the Pediatric Behavior Therapist or RBT (Registered Behavior Technician) becomes paramount. Through our specialized approach, we empower these children, guiding them towards their full potential. Our methods draw from the principles of the Early Start Denver Model (ESDM), a play-based form of Applied Behavioral Analysis (ABA) therapy. The role of a Pediatric Behavior Therapist is central bringing this care model to life.

Key Responsibilities:

  • Provide one-on-one ABA therapy to children aged 2-6 in our clinic, adhering to the profession's high standards
  • Implement intervention plans crafted by our expert BCBAs, ensuring alignment with Applied Behavioral Analysis therapy principles
  • Build trusting relationships with families, providing regular updates on their child’s progress and offering guidance within the ABA framework.
  • Participate in ongoing training and development to stay current with ABA therapy advancements and maintain RBT certification.

Qualifications:

  • Strong preference for either enrollment in or completion of a degree program. Bonus for degrees in Child Development, Psychology, or related fields
  • Ability to achieve and maintain RBT certification (Soar will provide paid training)
  • Previous experience with children and enjoyment working with children
  • Must have reliable transportation to both training location and local center. Punctuality is essential
  • Must be able to meet the following physical requirements: sit and stand frequently, shift positions quickly, lift up to 50 lbs., sit/kneel on the floor for extended periods of time, sit in a chair, stand, walk, and occasionally run short distances to catch up with a client
  • Computer and tablet literacy
  • Ability to work on a team

What We Offer:

  • $20.50 - $26.00/hour with regular bonus and promotion opportunities. All staff members are considered every 3 months for a raise or promotion
  • Comprehensive health benefits, including medical, dental, and vision plans
  • Student loan repayment and tuition reimbursement benefits
  • Priority access for in-network mental health support through our partnership with Sol Mental Health
  • Opportunities for career exploration in Behavior Analysis, Speech Therapy, Occupational Therapy, Psychology, and other roles
  • A guaranteed minimum of 30 hours per week for full-time roles
  • Supportive training for RBT certification and ABA therapy best practices
  • Tons of support from our multi-disciplinary team
  • A collaborative and fun environment where every team member's contribution is valued

Join Soar Autism Center as a Pediatric Behavior Therapist and be part of a team that's committed to making a positive difference in the lives of children on the autism spectrum!
