Above and Beyond Therapy

I have really enjoyed my experience working as a BCBA with ABT. One of the things I value most is the support I receive from leadership and my supervisors. They are always available when guidance is needed, but they also trust me to do my job and give me the autonomy to make clinical decisions without feeling micromanaged.

I also appreciate that employee feedback is genuinely heard and considered. I have seen ideas and suggestions from staff members taken seriously and implemented, which creates a collaborative environment where everyone feels valued and invested in the company's success.

The flexibility this position offers has been another major benefit. The company recognizes the importance of work-life balance and provides flexibility that allows employees to meet both professional and personal responsibilities.

Like any growing organization, there are areas that could continue to improve, particularly around overall structure and consistency of processes. At times, I feel like some administrative roles have a lot on their plate, and separating out certain responsibilities could help improve overall quality and efficiency . However, it is clear that leadership is actively working toward strengthening these areas, and I have seen positive progress over time.

Overall, I would recommend this company to others looking for a supportive workplace that values employee input, encourages independence, and continues to invest in growth and improvement.

In my role as a Physician Liaison in Colorado, my day-to-day work includes building relationships with pediatricians and diagnosing providers, hosting lunch-and-learns, and participating in community events that support autism awareness and connecting families to care. While expanding into a new market comes with challenges, I’ve found that to be one of the most rewarding parts of the role.

Entering a new state requires trust, adaptability, and strong communication and I’ve consistently felt supported in all three areas. I’ve been trusted to learn my market, identify gaps in care, and build meaningful partnerships, while also having the backing of a team that actively helps remove barriers so I can stay focused on supporting families.

Leadership has been a major strength in my experience. 
My state director is approachable, solutions-oriented, and ensures I have what I need to succeed in the field. My direct manager and VP of Outreach consistently prioritize both performance and work-life balance, leads by example, and is willing to step in when additional support is needed. 

I have always felt heard, respected, and genuinely valued.

No organization is without its growing pains, especially when entering new markets, but my personal experience has been one of collaboration, trust, and shared commitment to improving access to care. I’m grateful to be part of a team that invests in both its employees and the communities we serve. 
Additionally, I am very grateful that there is an overall company culture that encourages and even supports family life. I feel blessed to be in this company.

I joined ABT after being at my previous company for nearly a decade, so needless to say I was wary of what to expect. However,  I am happy to report that coming over to ABT was the best thing I could have done! I absolutely LOVE working here and would recommend this company to anyone looking for a great place to work. My clinical manager is AMAZING and very responsive to any question or concern that I have. Upper management genuinely takes the time to hear feedback (and to seek it out) from their clinicians to make meaningful changes if/as needed. There is a great sense of community here with the BCBA team and BCBA's regularly help each other out on cases (in group chat or during monthly clinic meetings). My work life balance is good, and I feel valued and respected as a person based off of the compensation I am provided for my role and experience here. ABT offers great benefits to their team and it shows that they truly care about their staff. My only critique would be pertaining to training, ESPECIALLY if you are joining unfamiliar to or less savvy with Central Reach. I think training could be more extensive in this area, as well as to new BT/RBT hires. Overall, TOP NOTCH experience with ABT so far, and I look forward to my future here! <3

What is the best part of working at the company?
Absolutely nothing, the referral-only culture makes it impossible to find any benefits. 


What is the most stressful part about working at the company?
Insane Daily Requirements: As a Physician Liaison, I was expected to make over 40 target stops 4 days a week. For comparison, the standard job description typically asks for 6–8 appointments. This 40+ requirement is physically and professionally impossible to maintain with quality.

What is the work environment and culture like at the company?
They do not care about employee success or clinical quality; the only thing that matters is getting referrals. Other reviews confirm a "replaceable parts" culture where staff are treated like tech hardware rather than professionals.

What is a typical day like for you at the company?
Lack of Professionalism with Doctors, The State Director was consistently late to scheduled meetings with medical doctors. This was deeply embarrassing and unprofessional, especially when the physicians explicitly stated their time was limited.
Zero Direction or Support, I received no onboarding or communication regarding management changes. Every time I asked for help or guidance, I was completely dismissed.
Micromanagement & Harassment, Despite the lack of helpful direction, I was harassed at all hours and constantly micromanaged.

I feel very misled. 
I was hired as a full time RBT.  Upon completion of my training and taking my competency assessment I had to wait about 2 weeks to get my first client.  

During my interview I was told I would see two clients a week, in home, Monday- Friday each with 4 hour sessions. 
After a month of working here (upon completion of my assessment) 
I’ve only been given 2 clients, 3 days a week for 2 hour sessions (12 hours a week total). 

I believe the majority of the company’s in home clients are available for afternoon hours but not mornings, which is not really a problem I just believe they should be transparent about it instead of dragging you in with false promises. 

For RBTS the in clinic positions are the only ones that are able to get full time. Unfortunately for you they are all fully staffed.   

The BCBAs are virtual however they do travel from different states to come check in on their clients with some of them being very hands on to others just letting you do your own thing. 

If it seems too good to be true , it probably is. Look else were if you’re looking for stable hours, transparency, and or have a family that depends on you financially. Im currently in the process of looking for another job even if I have to return the bonus I was given. 

I’ve never in my life been more deceived by a company. 

Working at Above & Beyond Therapy has been an incredibly rewarding experience. A typical day involves providing one-on-one therapy sessions, documenting client progress, and collaborating with a multidisciplinary team to ensure each client receives personalized care. There’s a strong emphasis on quality treatment, compassion, and client progress.

I’ve learned how to tailor therapy techniques to different client needs, improve communication with families, and stay up-to-date with evidence-based practices. The management team is approachable, organized, and truly values the input and well-being of their staff.

The workplace culture is inclusive, professional, and focused on teamwork. Everyone genuinely wants to help each other grow while delivering the best care possible to clients.

The hardest part of the job is handling emotionally challenging cases or when progress is slower than expected—but the support from colleagues makes those moments manageable. The most enjoyable part is seeing the positive impact your work has on individuals and families.



As an RBT there are many duties to complete throughout my clients’ sessions. Working with clients between the ages of 5-15 years is what I do on a typical day. This involves running several different tasks throughout a given session. Tasks include behavioral and learning activities like handwashing, brushing teeth, putting on and taking off shoes/socks, imitating sounds/words, answering questions, responding to others, and other tasks which are specific to each client’s learning path. I have learned a lot from the 40 hour training courses, the in person trainings, and working directly with clients. Things I’ve learned would be how to properly handle/prevent client maladaptive behaviors, managing time to complete a certain number of programs in a given session, working with and supporting my clients and coworkers. Management is always available to answer questions or concerns whenever I’ve reached out for assistance. The workplace culture has always been friendly and supportive! The only hard part of the job would be client cancellations and the most enjoyable part of the job is watching a client’s growth and progress!

A typical day at work entails you working with clients one-on-one with behavior training.


When I was first offered a position as an RBT, I did not even know that a position like that existed. Even so, from the interview process, then training, then to get started on the job, the company did well on making sure that the new hires were competent enough before getting started.


By the time I was on my first job, I knew in theory and with role-play practice during training what to  expect on the job.


The BCBAs on the cases I have been on have been a great source of knowledge and encouragement and they are always there to help you when you need support on your cases.


I have been working as an RBT here for about a year now and I have been working only with clients in-home and at their school so I am not aware of the job culture in the clinics.


The hardest part of the  job is the cancellations. When I first started, the company had a policy of paying out 75% for same-day cancellations but now you are only paid for the first hour if you are already on location or driving to the location when the cancellation happens.


The most enjoyable part of the job is watching your client progress with therapy.

I’ve been part of the Above and Beyond family for two and a half years now, and it's been an incredible journey. From day one, I felt welcomed and supported by everyone here. It’s rare to find a company where they not only care deeply about the clients but they also go the extra mile for their  employees.

What stands out most is how much Above and Beyond values its people. In my time here, I’ve experienced firsthand the company’s commitment to creating a positive and nurturing work environment. Above and Beyond consistently shows that they care about our well-being. This level of support has made a huge difference in my job satisfaction and overall happiness.

I can honestly say that I’ve never worked for a company that cares about its employees as much as Above and Beyond does. It’s more than just a job; it’s a place where I feel valued, respected, and motivated to do my best. If you’re looking for a company that truly puts people first, look no further than Above and Beyond.

My time with Above & Beyond Therapy revealed a shift in priorities that should concern both staff and families. The company has moved toward an assembly-line approach to ABA. They seem to view their RBT's and their programs like tech hardware: when the current version becomes too vocal about ethics or quality of care, the system simply waits to replace them with a 'newer model' of RBT that won't question the standardized, cookie-cutter protocols.

Management &  higher ups will also often seek retaliatory approaches to employees reporting internal workplace disputes appropriately by reassigning reporter's to in-home visits and allowing a toxic work environment to grow and fester like an infection within all clinics. If you are not assigned any in-home clients you are left to your own devices as HR is unreachable and will ghost all forms of communication and attempts to reach out.
