Autism & Behavioral Spectrum
Behavior Technician (PT)
Autism & Behavioral Spectrum, Saint Peters, Missouri, United States, 63376
Role Overview
We’re seeking compassionate, reliable individuals to provide 1:1 Applied Behavior Analysis (ABA) therapy to children ages 1–6 with Autism Spectrum Disorder. As a Behavior Technician, you’ll work directly with children in a clinic-based setting, helping them build critical life skills through our unique, play‑based ReggioABA™ approach. You’ll be trained and supported by Board Certified Behavior Analysts (BCBAs) every step of the way.
This is a physically and emotionally active role. You’ll spend much of your day on the floor with children, supporting them as they learn to communicate, potty train, and manage big emotions. At times, children may engage in behaviors such as screaming, biting, or hitting—you’ll be trained to respond calmly and professionally. Reliability is key: families depend on consistent, committed staff to help their children grow. Attendance and punctuality are essential from your very first day of paid training through your work in the clinic.
