NeurAbilities Healthcare

As an experienced BHT the lack of training the provide to new hires is very poor. There is a big lack of communication. Most of the clinicians are poor at supervision. They discuss private information about clients to others in and outside the clinic. They just catch up on their paperwork on their laptops, when they should be interacting with the clients and supervising the BHT's. Management will advise the BHT's to have good hygiene but then they do not care if the BHT's have gloves to change the diapers. This clinic location is always dirty. It is not cleaned well, has rodents, very unimaginative and lacks any windows. It also lacks functional toys and the broken toys never get replaced. The rooms are very small. There is no structure at all for the clients. The sick policy is not enforced for the clients. Some clients are schedule for over a 6-9-hour session with the same BHT which causes burnout for the client and staff. This is a very poor ABA model that they follow. It is pretty much a bill mill.
The management does not care about the BHT's wellbeing at all and poorly matches the staff to cases. In the interview they will promise you will get over 30 hours but this is not the case, they just want to get you in the door. The environment is very unwelcoming and cliquey. Food and warm drinks are not allowed back in the area. Staff were told to come to work fully caffeinated, discouraged to drink the coffee. You are providing direct services which makes it difficult to use the bathroom when there is no one there to step in and cover which is often. Meanwhile there’s staff mistreating clients and not one inch of action has been made. The PM and CM are TERRIBLE leaders, nasty and rude. They don't even like each which is ironic because they are a reflection of themselves.

A typical day in the life of a BCBA is travelling between clients, and NeurAbilities does a great job of matching you with clients who live in the general area where you work (whether that be closer to your home, or closer to your home clinic, your clients tend to be pretty centralized). When you start, you may not have your pick of locations due to being plugged in for cases where coverage is needed, but as new clients come in, they'll consider your location. There have been a lot of restructuring changes at NeurAbilties over the past year, and due to some of the clinics being new, procedures sometimes leave something to be desired BUT everyone is working toward finding systems that are efficient and I believe over time, this will be worked out. I love the support I feel at this company, and leaders (managers) really listen to your struggles and desires and take action to support always. The billables are pretty reasonable at 25 per week. The hardest part of the job is the travel (you are paid for travel between clients), the weird hours sometimes, and cancellations that are out of your control. The flexibility throughout the day to schedule personal appointments, the pay, and supporting people and families in the community and watching people gain independence are definitely the best parts!

What is the best part of working at the company?
Working with clients and their families. Being able to really make a difference in their lives using the principles of ABA.

What is the most stressful part about working at the company?
Unstable hours, poor communication with office staff, lack of support from supervisors, company gossip, unrealistic treatment plan outcomes.

What is the work environment and culture like at the company?
Personally, I worked in various settings so the environment and cultures were constantly changing. This is something I preferred versus working in the clinic setting which was unimaginative and lacked adequate supplies.

What is a typical day like for you at the company?
A typical day looks like arriving at your session location. Hoping CentralReach allows you to begin your session timer without any issues. Review treatment goals and begin collecting data for your session. Important to note that the environment you find yourself in can be very chaotic, changing by the minute. Intense volume/sounds, eloping, aggression, frequent transitions to name a few. It can be difficult to remain on task but familiarizing oneself with the treatment goals helps so that you do not always have to reach for your tablet at the exact moment to enter data. You will end your session timer 15 minutes prior to begin documenting what occurred in the session.

When I first started working at Neurabilities, the environment was great, and I genuinely enjoyed going to work every day. However, during the last 30 days of my employment, you could feel the energy shift and sense how unhealthy the work environment had become. The clinical gym felt dreary, and it was clear that it was taking a toll on both clinicians and techs.

At times when I was supposed to be supervising, I also had to cover bathroom breaks because the PM was never available. There were moments when I felt I was being spoken to as if I were a child by the PM. The clinical and operations teams no longer felt like a united team. The operations team began assigning technicians to client cases without any input from us—something we previously had a say in.

The work-life balance could have been better. I felt there was a lack of support with opening and closing duties, and these responsibilities often fell on the clinicians multiple times a week. I would have never left if things had remained the way they were when I first started. I truly enjoyed working with the clinicians and collaborating as a team. CM is great; however, things on the operations side need to change.


I just started at NeurAbilities and when I say I have been extremely impressed the entire time I absolutely mean it. I've been in the field for a bit and I felt inclined to write something because in most cases, when people leave disgruntled, they are going to leave a review. Meaning - I wanted to leave a review as a current employee to talk about the positive aspects.
Management and the CEO are INCREDIBLE. If you are a BCBA and looking for absolutely ballers in the field then go to the company. You don't often find ABA companies run by BCBAs who care. Maybe the negative reviews are people who haven't seen what truly terrible companies look like. I promise you, this one is quality. If your upset about the nature of the field with insurance and billing - well thats just ABA right now. Go to a school instead if that's not your thing. 

I have been nothing but supported as a clinician. If your a BHT/RBT or BCBA I really recommend thinking about going for this company. It's growing but also, they care about quality. Growing pains are normal. 

Overall this is a fun and enjoyable job where you get to work with and see kids grow. Some behaviors like aggression can be difficult to deal with but the good out ways the bad. 

While this company does provide comprehensive paid training, you’ll often be left to learn a lot on your own which is very challenging if you’re new to ABA. That being said the BCBA’s currently here are very helpful and supportive when they have the time to supervise you. 

Some cons about this job is it’s hard to get full time hours, they have more BHT’s than clients currently. Also while they say you can sub or do admin work when a client cancels last minute, it’s often not available and you’ll have to go without that sessions pay. 

Most of my coworkers and management are very friendly and supportive. However I have observed some “mean girl” behavior and cliques as there are with any jobs. 

Overall, this is one of the better ABA clinics in the area and I’d recommend this job to anyone looking to change careers and try something new or take as a transition job while you look for something better. 

When I began to work here I loved this job but then I started to see their true colors. The people in the office will talk badly about hardworking BHTs behind their backs to other BCBAs. They are disrespectful when messaging you. They force you to sub if you are full time even if you are unavailable during those hours. It is up to you to make sure you get 30 hours a week but sometimes they don’t help you get those 30 hours because they don’t want to take the easy way out and give you office hours. If you’re part time and work 30 hours those hours aren’t guaranteed so if your client calls out you’re out of pay for that day. Communication is awful at this job. They do not support you here and you will feel unappreciated for all the hard work you do. 
The only positive I will say is watching your client improve so much and forming a relationship with them and their family. Other than that I wouldn’t recommend working here. 

Cons: BCBAs and RBTs are not treated fairly. BCBAs do whatever they want and RBTs are treated like factory workers. No breaks for RBTs, no lunch breaks, not paid if you wait for your client and they don't show up, sometimes working 8+ hours with no break. If it will cost the company extra money, they won't do it. Never give raises. BCBAs will be in supervision with you for 15 minutes and say they were there for 3+ hours. Make you pay $120 an hour for BCBA supervision (Master's program students), lengthy contracts, and refuse to pay more than 15 minutes of time even if you have to be there longer. 
Pros: Will help get RBT certification, can take time off/change schedule when needed, nice families. 
The hardest part of the job is when you need help, you will not get it. 

I’ve had a great experience working with NeurAbilities Healthcare. The company truly prioritizes both client care and staff support, creating a positive and professional environment. As a Behavioral Health Technician, I’ve been able to build meaningful relationships with clients while implementing evidence-based interventions that make a real difference.

The training and supervision are strong, and the team is always willing to provide guidance and feedback when needed. I also appreciate how collaborative the workplace is—everyone works together to ensure the best outcomes for each individual. NeurAbilities sets a high standard for quality care, and I’m proud to be part of an organization that genuinely values growth, compassion, and professionalism.

I worked in two offices.  I was excited to start but my excitement quickly turned to disgust.  You do not get the support you are told you get, and office staff hold on to negative information until they need to use it against that person. I was told to do it and I've had multiple staff approach me since I left, saying it was happening to them. Before I went to the second office, I was warned the two office staff were similar to the girls in Mean Girls.  I should've listened.  You will be told great pay and great benefits. What they don't tell you is if you live in PA you are out of network.  The pay is better than some, but they are by far the highest paying. 

Bottom line- Do your research and check out multiple agencies.
