About The Opportunity
Next Level ABA is currently seeking a Part Time Board Certified Behavior Analyst (LABA BCBA) to support our clients in the greater Boston area.

This position is ideal for BCBAs who want to maintain a meaningful clinical caseload while preserving balance and flexibility in their lives.

Whether you're a school-based BCBA seeking additional after-school hours, a stay-at-home parent ready to re-engage with direct work without the demands of a full-time role, or an experienced clinician looking for additional hours, this opportunity offers the chance to make a tangible impact, earn supplemental income, and keep a manageable schedule.

Our part-time BCBAs typically work with 1–2 clients, averaging about 5 hours per week, allowing for focused, high-quality care and strong clinical relationships.

We are seeking bright, compassionate professionals who are passionate about Applied Behavior Analysis (ABA) and committed to making a meaningful difference in the lives of children and families.

About Us
Next Level ABA believes in nurturing each child's unique strengths to help them achieve their full potential. Equally important, we prioritize the well-being of our clinicians. We have intentionally structured our practice to focus on underserved populations, including clients requiring fewer hours or those with insurance plans often overlooked by commercially driven agencies.
