Job DescriptionJob Description

We deliver exceptional service by hiring extraordinary talent 

If you are passionate about helping others and want to have a career changing lives, then the Autism Therapy Assistant position could be the perfect fit for you. 

About Us 

LittleStar ABA Therapy works with children, teens, and young adults affected by autism.  Operating as a non-profit organization, we use our resources to ensure quality services to our patients, and to invest in our staff and the autism community. Our clinical leadership consists of experts in the field of ABA, including three PhDs and a world-class advisory board.  We have been improving the lives of individuals with autism for over 20 years   

Summary 

The Autism Therapy Assistant position is one of the most important roles within our organization  As an Autism Therapy Assistant, you will implement your patient’s individualized program written by a Board Certified Behavior Analyst (BCBA). Using Applied Behavior Analysis (ABA), you will help your patient learn new skills that are truly beneficial to them and their family.  Some of the targets we work on are social, communication, vocational, and life skills. We support patients from two years old to young adults. Services are implemented in the most appropriate setting for the patient and can include the therapy center, home, school, workplace, and/or other community-based setting. The Autism Therapy Assistant position offers a lot of variety as each day can look a little different 

Why You Should Work as an Autism Therapy Assistant

  • Work one-on-one with individuals on the autism spectrum and help them learn skills to improve the quality of their life.

  • Unlike many professions, Autism Therapy Assistants have one job and one focus- working with the patients.  

  • The Autism Therapy Assistant position provides great experience for anyone interested psychology, social work, speech and occupational therapy, education, and all human services.

  • Be an advocate for your patient 

  • Build relationships and have fun while you work 

  • The Autism Therapy Assistant position is a great career for anyone motivated and rewarded by seeing patients make real progress. Applied Behavior Analysis (ABA) is the most effective treatment for individuals with autism and is endorsed by the US Surgeon General. It is science based and proven to work. 

"Behavior analysis... it's more than a job, it's a calling." - Dr. Pat Friman
