Our internship program is crafted for individuals with a passion for supporting children with unique needs and who are pursuing careers in special education, deaf education, speech therapy, occupational therapy, and behavior analysis, including those working toward RBT or BCBA certification. At Growing Together Behavioral Center, interns are welcomed as part of our team, gaining hands-on experience and valuable mentorship while working alongside our licensed therapists, educators, and behavior specialists. Interns have opportunities to observe therapy sessions, support classroom activities, and assist in creating individualized learning plans, making a meaningful difference in the lives of our students.

This immersive experience is designed to build skills and insights that will help prepare interns for a rewarding career in the field. By working directly with children and young adults with autism and developmental disabilities, interns gain real-world experience in a supportive, professional setting where growth and learning are at the heart of everything we do. If you’re ready to make an impact and learn within a compassionate community, we’d love to welcome you to our internship program!

All of our service providers are behavioral techs, registered behavioral therapists (RBT) or providers with higher degrees such as a BCaBA, BCBA or certified teacher.  Behavioral techs are typically new to the clinic setting, but have at least 3 years of childcare experience, including situational experience dealing with challenging behaviors, children on the spectrum, and/or language development.   All behavioral techs are required to go through the training to become an RBT within 90 days of starting at Growing Together, and are provided extensive training both in small group and direct supervision.  

All staff at Growing Together are provided direct supervision from a BCBA or BCaBA, as well as individual and group training each month.  Continuing education and skill development is required of all therapists and teachers.
