Do you have a patient in your practice that have difficulty with compliance during their medical and dental appointments? We’re here to help!  Let us work directly with the families and caregivers to address the child’s individual needs.  We are available to (including but not limited to): 

• Communicating with the patient’s caregivers to understand the function of the behavior
• Prepare the patient for their appointment through pictures, social stories, and conversation
• Present to staff a list of antecedent strategies that may be used to comfort the patient
• Attend the appointment with the patient to provide time-sensitive reinforcement for engaging in appropriate procedures
• Debrief with staff and families about what can be done during future appointments  

Do you have a patient that could benefit from at home focused programming?  We would appreciate your referral. 

Hey there BCBA Candidates and RBT Therapists! 

Welcome to PACT ABA!  We’re here to help you gain the supervision required in accordance with the Behavior Analysis Certification Board.   

RBT Therapists 

Do you work privately for a family, agency or school? Are you looking for a supervisor who can collaborate with you to provide the best learning opportunities for your clients. PACT ABA would like to help!  We are able to provide the 40-hour training programming, competency assessment, as well as ongoing case supervision. 

Registered Behavior Technicians are not independent practitioners, and must be supervised by a Board Certified Behavior Analyst (BCBA) in order to provide ABA therapy, PACT ABA offers assessments, treatment plan development, and BCBA supervision to participating schools. This model ensures quality ABA services are provided, while lowering the cost of therapy. 

Board Certified Behavior Analysts (BCBAs) are bound by a Professional and Ethical Compliance Code. The provision of Behavior Analytic supervision by a BCBA to paraprofessionals implementing ABA treatment plans is regulated and controlled by the Behavior Analysis Certification Board. 

RBT Candidate Requirement- The BACB requires supervision equal at least 5% of hours per month providing behavior analytic services. There must be 2 face-to-face visits, one visit must be individual and requires the BCBA to observe the RBT providing services. These can be done in-person or via telemedicine. Invoices are sent monthly via an easy email payment.  

BCBA Candidates 

Our BCBA supervision focuses on teaching skills that prepare trainees for independence in a BCBA role. Learn how to apply BACB Task List concepts in real life scenarios. Our supervision emphasizes naturalistic teaching (NET), Discrete Trial Teaching (DTT), and individualizing strategies to be reflective of clients' strengths and preferences. Trainees will learn how to teach essential ABA skills using approachable language and relatable examples. At PACT ABA we provide: 

• Weekly supervision sessions 
• In-person (within WNY) and beyond (via HIPAA compliant telemedicine) supervision
• Unrestricted assignments tailored to the BACB Task List 

BCBA Candidate Requirement- The BACB requires supervision equal at least 5% of your fieldwork each month. For example, if you plan to accrue 60 total experience hours that month, you will be required to have 3 hours of supervision during the month. Invoices are sent monthly via an easy email payment.  

What will supervision look like?
