Program Supervisor

Nice to meet you! We’re Kyo.

Kyo’s ABA Optimized program is designed to deliver the most effective, efficient care possible to our patients. 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 patient than simply more direct therapy. Clinical supervisors in the ABA Optimized program will spend more time with patients than those in Kyo’s standard treatment model. Therapy hours are tailored to the needs of each individual patient 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 Program Supervisor working within the ABA Optimized program will have a demonstrated history of strong interpersonal skills and clinical skills. With client progress and satisfaction in mind, clinical supervisors will have the flexibility to make individualized treatment recommendations, inclusive of dosage and ratio of Supervision, Caregiver Collaboration and Direct Treatment. In lieu of a traditional monthly allocation, clinical supervisor success will be assessed via client progress and satisfaction.

Our ABA Optimized Regional Director, Maggie, is looking to connect with enthusiastic clinicians interested in learning further about this model. 

We currently have ABA Optimized clients in California.

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