Who We Are
At Lighthouse Neurofeedback and Behavioral Health, we are committed to delivering high-quality, science-based care that helps individuals and families achieve meaningful, lasting change.

- Lead clinical training systems and advanced staff development
- Ensure ethical compliance and alignment with best practices in ABA and behavioral health
- Collaborate with operational leadership to align clinical systems with organizational goals
- Carry a minimal caseload (0–3 clients) focused on high-complexity and strategic cases
Who We Are Looking For
