Board Certified Behavior Analyst (BCBA)

Board Certified Behavior Analyst (BCBA) – In-Home Therapy (Naperville & Clarendon Hills, IL)

About Us:
Golden Hour Wellness is a growing mental health and wellness clinic dedicated to providing comprehensive, patient-centered care. Our services include ketamine infusion therapy, talk therapy, and medication management, and we are now expanding into Applied Behavior Analysis (ABA) therapy to further support individuals with behavioral and developmental needs. By integrating these services, we aim to create a holistic approach to mental and behavioral healthcare, ensuring our patients receive the support they need in every aspect of their well-being.

Why This Opportunity is Unique:
This role is perfect for a BCBA who has always dreamed of entrepreneurship but doesn't want to deal with back-office responsibilities.
