Job Description

Job Description

Nice to meet you! We're Kyo.

Kyo is a leading provider of therapy for individuals with autism. Our core service is Applied Behavior Analysis (ABA) therapy, a clinically proven form of treatment for autism. Kyo serves thousands of children and teens across ten states and is growing rapidly to meet demand for its services. Every day, our team seeks to achieve the unachievable for our clients.

We deliver effective, child-centric ABA therapy to children with autism. We define success by the new connections, new capabilities, and new achievements that matter most to each child and their family. We believe in making every minute count when we're together, and will help you do the same while we're apart!

If you're creative, compassionate, ambitious and looking to make an impact in your community, Kyo might be the place for you!

Our growing team of clinicians has a full-time (30-40 hours weekly) opening for a Program Supervisor.

Pay Range: $27-$28 Dependent on location

For a limited time, a $2000 sign-on bonus is available!

Kyo's ABA Optimized program is designed to deliver the most effective, efficient care possible to our clients. The model is based on the premise that more hours does not always equal more progress, and that there are other important clinical levers that can yield greater clinical outcomes to a client than simply more direct therapy. Program Supervisors (PS) in the ABA Optimized program will spend more time with clients than PSs in Kyo's standard treatment model. Therapy hours are tailored to the needs of each individual client and are optimized around increased supervision, parent training, and coordination of care, with direct therapy playing an important role but with fewer hours than conventional ABA therapy programs.

The ideal PS working within the ABA Optimized program will have a demonstrated history of strong interpersonal skills and top-notch clinical skills.
