Who Supervises the Aba Therapy Sessions in my Home?
In-home ABA therapy sessions at Heart Core ABA are supervised by a Board Certified Behavior Analyst (BCBA). While the daily one-on-one therapy is delivered by a Registered Behavior Technician (RBT), the BCBA serves as the clinical leader responsible for the following:
- Supervision and Oversight: The BCBA provides essential supervision to the RBT to ensure treatment fidelity. This includes ongoing direct observation of sessions and a requirement that the BCBA supervises at least 5% of therapy hours each month.
- Program Design: As a master’s-level professional, the BCBA conducts initial assessments and designs the personalized treatment plan that the technician follows.
- Data-Driven Adjustments: The BCBA regularly reviews the data collected by the RBT during sessions and makes strategic adjustments to goals and interventions as your child progresses.
- Parent Coaching: The supervising BCBA also leads weekly parent coaching and provides updates on milestones and your child’s overall progress.
This team-based approach ensures that while the RBT provides hands-on support, the BCBA provides the expert direction necessary for consistent, high-quality care.
