Built by a team of clinicians and operators in behavioral health, Headstart is empowering BCBAs to build and run their own, independent ABA practices. The ABA space has changed a lot in recent years – and we’ve witnessed first-hand how challenging things can be for clinicians. From unreasonable billable targets, to standardized treatment plans, to limited opportunities for training and development, it’s no wonder that BCBAs and RBTs are frustrated! At Headstart, we believe that ABA works best when clinicians are in charge – because nobody knows your client’s needs better than you do! 

We’ve found that many clinicians dream of opening their own practice but don’t feel like they have the support, tools, and resources to do this successfully. Headstart is here to help you build your own, thriving ABA practice – focus on providing exceptional care to clients, and let our world-class support team handle the rest. Get your work-life balance back, take care of clients how you see fit, and keep what you earn – because happy providers make happy families!

At Headstart, we are committed to:

• Putting Families First. Everything we do is to enable clinicians to focus on doing what you do best: providing exceptional care!
• Your Independence. It’s your practice. Importantly, you will not be a 1099 (or W2) employee at Headstart - you will have your own LLC, which means you have total control over how many clients you see, the hours you work, and how best to provide care.
• Working For You. Headstart works for you, not the other way around. Running a practice without support can be hard – we’re here to make it easy. Reach out anytime, we’re happy to help.
