Gaithersburg, United States The Language and Behavior Center Full time

The Language and Behavior Center (TLBC) is a boutique-style ABA company that is employee-centered and focuses on an anti-ableist approach to working with autistic children. We are owned and operated by two BCBAs and are not backed by private equity. This means we get to prioritize quality of services and employee-relationships over profit. Our Director Team is also comprised entirely of parents, so we understand the need for balance.


We pride ourselves in our interdisciplinary team of BCBAs, SLPs, and OTs that collaborate to provide a well-rounded support system for our clients.


Position Overview

Our Behavior Technicians (BT) work as a part of the ABA Treatment Team, providing in-home services for children with Autism and related disorders. Our BTs receive frequent supervision and support from a supervising BCBA. They're integral to the child's progress as well as family communication with the ABA Treatment Team. The BTs role involves planning, collecting data, and treatment.


Planning – BTs are responsible for arriving at appointments with materials to keep clients engaged and stimulated for the duration of the appointment. This can include toys, books, games, arts & crafts, or other creative ideas. Prior to the scheduled session, the BT consults with the child’s supervising BCBA to determine the appropriate goals, materials, and activities for the day’s session.

Specific job responsibilities include

  • Review the child's individualized treatment plan and goals prior to session.
  • Develop a plan for the session, to include creative materials and engaging activities to integrate into programs.
  • Consult with the supervising BCBA to ensure the appointment follows the designed schedule and addresses the child’s individualized goals.
  • Punctuality: BTs are expected to arrive a minimum of 5 minutes prior to the session’s start time.


Collecting Data – BTs need to collect data in order to monitor the progress and effectiveness of the individualized treatment plan. Regular and ongoing data collection is vital in evaluating the progress a client makes towards their goals. Critical decisions regarding the client’s goals and therapy sessions are made based on this ongoing data collection. BTs will collect their data during sessions as they implement programs developed by the supervising BCBA. This allows the ABA and administrative team to ensure the treatment is progressing and effective.

Specific job responsibilities include

  • Collect data throughout session to actively monitor the child's progress
  • Participate in program development with the BCBA
  • Discuss collected data with the BCBA and assist with program modifications to ensure the child continues to reach attainable goals
  • Ensure confidentiality and abide by HIPPA regulations


Treatment – BTs are responsible for implementing the child’s individual treatment goals throughout the session. Specified targets are embedded in play and seamlessly incorporated into fun and engaging activities. BTs collect data on all specified targets and provide a comprehensive, narrative report at the end of each session.

Specific job responsibilities include

  • Provide reliable one-on-one ABA services based on the child's treatment plan
  • Implement programs developed by the child’s supervising BCBA to help build communication, advocacy skills, daily living skills, and social-emotional skills
  • Assist with preference assessment to ensure the child is continually motivated during teaching
  • Provide an overview of the session activities to the caregiver at the end of each session
  • Obtain a signature from the caregiver at the end of each session
  • Include all specified information on the session note (i.e. caregivers present, start and end time of session, behavior goals, and skill acquisition goals)
  • Ensure confidentiality and abide by HIPPA regulations


About The Language and Behavior Center:

We provide family-focused therapeutic services to children age 0-12 years old. With a focus on play-based learning, TLBC believes that language and skill development should be a positive experience for both the child and the family.

Focus on Staff: The happiness of our staff is essential to the quality of service that TLBC provides. TLBC is constantly evolving to ensure our staff's happiness through an extensive benefits package, supportive mentors and supervisors, and frequent opportunities for promotions and raises.
