Board Certified Behavior Analyst (BCBA)
At Cherished Stars, we want BCBAs to have the time, autonomy, and support to practice at a high clinical standard. You should be able to focus on understanding your clients, designing thoughtful treatment, developing RBTs, partnering with families, and using data to create meaningful progress.
Why Cherished Stars
Cherished Stars is building more than another ABA therapy center. We are creating an inclusive practice that begins with understanding the whole child, partners closely with families, and focuses on progress that matters in everyday life. We are equally intentional about the clinician experience: reasonable clinical expectations, protected time for the work behind great care, and operational support that reduces avoidable administrative burden.
Our Vision
To build a trusted, inclusive practice where every child is understood, every family feels supported, and exceptional clinicians have the environment and resources to do their best work.
Our Mission
To deliver individualized, evidence-based care that begins with understanding the child, includes the family’s voice, and translates clinical progress into skills that make a meaningful difference in everyday life.
Our Values
- Begin With Understanding: Listen, observe, and understand before deciding how best to support each child.
- Make Progress Meaningful: Focus on communication, confidence, relationships, independence, and accomplishments that matter in daily life.
- Earn Trust Through Excellence: Deliver consistent, responsive, evidence-based care with accountability and continuous improvement.
- Invest in the People Who Care: Support, mentor, and develop clinicians so they can thrive and do their best work.
Role at a Glance
- Compensation range: $90,000 to $110,000
- Sign-On Bonus: $10,000*
- Clinical Hours: up to 25 clinical hours per week
- Target Caseload: Approximately 6 to 10 active clients, adjusted for complexity and treatment intensity
- Protected Time: Assessment, treatment planning, RBT supervision, caregiver collaboration, documentation, consultation, and professional development
- Work Model: Primarily center-based, with potential for up to 3 remote administrative day per month after onboarding and based on clinical needs.
* $10,000 sign-on bonus, paid in three equal installments during the first 12 months of employment, subject to continued employment and applicable plan terms.
What You Will Do
- Conduct behavioral and functional assessments and develop individualized, measurable treatment plans.
- Manage an appropriate caseload and continuously evaluate progress through data review, observation, and treatment modification.
- Design and oversee behavior intervention programs grounded in evidence-based ABA practice.
- Provide high-quality supervision, direct modeling, coaching, and competency feedback to RBTs.
- Partner with caregivers as active participants in treatment and support generalization into everyday life.
- Maintain timely, accurate clinical documentation that meets ethical, regulatory, and payer standards.
- Participate in case reviews, peer consultation, clinical development, and ongoing training.
- Collaborate with schools, physicians, therapists, and other professionals when clinically appropriate.
A Clinical Structure Designed for Quality
BCBAs are expected to contribute 25 clinical hours per week. The remaining time is intentionally available for the work that makes care strong: assessment, treatment planning, RBT supervision and coaching, caregiver collaboration, data analysis, documentation, case consultation, and professional development.
Our goal is not to maximize billable hours. It is to create the structure clinicians need to deliver thoughtful, consistent, high-quality care.
What We Are Looking For
- Current BCBA certification in good standing.
- Active Georgia Licensed Behavior Analyst (LBA) license, or ability to obtain before beginning clinical practice in Georgia.
- Master’s degree in Behavior Analysis, Psychology, Special Education, or a related field.

- Experience conducting assessments, developing individualized treatment plans, and supervising RBTs.
- Strong data interpretation, clinical judgment, documentation discipline, and caregiver communication skills.
- Commitment to ethical, evidence-based, individualized care and meaningful client outcomes.
Benefits
- 23 days of paid leave: 15 days of paid time off (PTO) plus 8 company-paid holidays.
- Medical insurance options.
- $1,500 annual CEU / professional-development allowance.
- Reimbursement of BCBA recertification and Georgia LBA renewal fees.
- Registration support for one approved professional conference each year.
- Employee referral bonus program.
- Operational support designed to reduce avoidable, billing, credentialing, and administrative burden.
- Clear opportunities to progress toward Lead BCBA, Center Clinical Director, and broader clinical leadership roles as Cherished Stars grows.
Benefits are subject to eligibility requirements and applicable plan terms.
Who Will Thrive Here
A BCBA who wants to practice at a high clinical standard and have the time to do the work well. You value individualized treatment, meaningful outcomes, strong RBT development, genuine family partnership, clinical autonomy, and room to grow.
If you want to do excellent clinical work in an environment that invests in its clinicians and gives you the structure to succeed, we would like to hear from you.
