Our Clinical Approach

At Hope Discovery, play is at the heart of how children learn and grow.

Our naturalistic developmental behavioral intervention (NDBI) approach draws on evidence-based models such as the Early Start Denver Model (ESDM). Through play, shared routines, and responsive relationships, we help children develop communication, social, and learning skills that support confidence, independence, and meaningful progress.

We believe exceptional care begins with individualized treatment, caregiver collaboration, and a clinical team committed to making a lasting difference for children and families.

What You'll Do

As a BCBA at Hope Discovery, you'll guide individualized treatment, collaborate with caregivers, and support the clinical development of our team.

• Conduct functional behavior assessments (FBAs) and skill-based assessments, including VB-MAPP and ABLLS-R.
• Design and oversee naturalistic, play-based NDBI treatment informed by models such as ESDM.
• Develop, implement, monitor, and revise individualized treatment plans.
• Partner with caregivers through training, coaching, and collaboration to promote skill generalization.
• Supervise, coach, and develop RBTs and trainees pursuing BCBA certification.
• Evaluate client progress and use clinical data to guide treatment decisions.
• Collaborate with the clinical team to deliver compassionate, high-quality care.
• Maintain accurate clinical documentation and uphold professional, ethical, and regulatory standards.

What You'll Bring

• Current BCBA certification in good standing with the Behavior Analyst Certification Board (BACB).
• Current Michigan behavior analyst license or eligibility to obtain Michigan licensure before practicing.
• Master's degree or higher in behavior analysis, psychology, social work, education, or a related field.
• At least one year of experience providing ABA services to children with autism.

We value clinicians who demonstrate sound clinical judgment, accountability, effective communication, collaboration, and a commitment to continued professional growth.
