Behavioral Therapist

Tailor Your Resume for this Job

Overview
We are seeking a compassionate, flexible, and growth-oriented Behavioural Therapist to join our team at Beyond Barriers Therapy Center (BBTC). The ideal candidate will support both children and adults with diverse needs, with a primary focus on individuals with Autism Spectrum Disorder while also working beyond a single-diagnosis model. As one of the few centers offering services across the lifespan, we value clinicians who are adaptable and open to working with a wide range of behavioural presentations.

BBTC is a fully Assent-Based practice. All therapists are expected to deliver services that prioritize client autonomy, dignity, and willingness to participate. Candidates must either have prior experience with assent-based approaches or demonstrate a strong willingness to learn and complete training provided by the organization. A commitment to ethical, compassionate care and collaborative teamwork is essential.

Duties

• Conduct assessments and assist in the development and implementation of individualized, assent-based treatment plans tailored to each client’s unique needs.
• Implement evidence-based behavioural interventions while ensuring ongoing client assent and engagement.
• Collect, record, and analyze data using a variety of methods, including Discrete Trial Training (DTT), probe data, ABC (Antecedent-Behaviour-Consequence) data, and narrative data collection.
• Complete detailed and accurate session notes at the end of each session in accordance with organizational and clinical standards.
• Monitor and evaluate client progress and adjust intervention strategies in collaboration with supervising clinicians.
• Work collaboratively with families, caregivers, and other professionals to support consistency and generalization of skills across environments.
• Maintain accurate and timely documentation of all client interactions, progress, and treatment outcomes.
• Participate in team meetings, supervision, and ongoing training to ensure high-quality service delivery.
• Provide support with case coordination, including communication with other service providers and referrals as needed.

Experience

• Previous experience in behavioural therapy, Applied Behaviour Analysis (ABA), or related fields is preferred.
• Experience working with children with Autism Spectrum Disorder is highly valued; experience working with adults and/or a broader range of diagnoses is considered a strong asset.
• Proficiency in data collection methods, including DTT, probe, ABC, and narrative data collection, is required.
• Strong clinical writing skills, particularly in completing session notes and documentation, are essential.
• Familiarity with assent-based, trauma-informed, or client-centred approaches is highly desirable.
• Ability to work collaboratively within a multidisciplinary team and adapt to a variety of client needs and settings.
• Commitment to ongoing professional development and openness to training in assent-based practices if not already experienced.
• This position offers the opportunity to make a meaningful and lasting impact while working within a progressive, ethical, and supportive clinical environment that values both client and clinician growth.
