Okay - Supervisor Behavior Management Foundation Employee Review

Amazing staff wonderful job if you love helping

Stressful but very awarding job

I had a great Clinical Supervisor to whom I reported directly; she was very supportive and communicative. I also built good rapport with some of my clients and enjoyed the work for the most part. I gained experience working with children with disabilities.

I never once had in-person or virtual supervision from the BCBA (the one who is legally required to be supervising), who was very detached from clients and the day-to-day. I only ever received supervision and training from my clinical supervisor, who is not certified. With one client, I did not receive ANY supervision for over two months, as my supervisor was taken off the case and the BCBA did not reach out to offer any form of support. I often got the impression that the BCBA's at the company (who are also owners) prioritize caseload and insurance reimbursements over client progress. Training for the Behavior Technician role was also very meager and unstructured. I also was left with two of the most complex patients in my region (other staff refused to work with them), and I did not feel prepared or supported as a new BT.
