{Hello Autism Tutors and Therapists}

Oh yes… The time has come again and we need a new lead therapist for our team in central Vancouver (near Cambie and 22nd Avenue.)

Our twelve year old daughter is high functioning, verbal, gentle, affectionate, and entertaining. Her therapy is fascinating, and her progress is swift. She has been doing ABA for ten years. We work under the guidance of Kim Kirsch and Thea Brain and the Early Autism Project, hence, it is a home-based ABA program which is supervised by a well-respected BCBA.

Previous experience with ABA programs is a must and previous lead experience would be swell, but as long as you seem bright, caring, and capable, we are interested. A criminal record check will be obligatory. Initial training will be provided along with follow up sessions.

Responsibilities include, but are not limited to: running sessions on your own, preparing for team meetings once a month, overlapping with our consultant, providing reports to the consultant, working on scheduling, and overlapping therapists. You will also need to provide feedback to the therapists and ourselves, train new therapists, oversee data recorded, probe new targets, and coach the team.

You will also be picking our daughter up from school, recording data, facilitating playdates, helping with home living skills, and working with her on her fine and gross motor challenges.

Our team meetings are currently held once a month on a Wednesday evening from 5:00-6:30 and sessions are from 3:00 to 5:30, everyday: two or three of which you would run. We also ask that you are able to commit to the team for at least one year.

You should be FUN, responsible, dedicated, and creative. You need to have strong play skills, a positive attitude, and lots of energy and patience. You are a good multitasker, are organized, encouraging, enthusiastic, and responsible. You need to be able to take constructive feedback and implement it immediately. Salary will be negotiable based on your experience and your performance.

If you are interested, please send a short cover letter and your resume to me at cathy.fitzhugh@gmail.com

We look forward to hearing from you, and thanks.
