About Lucentra Care, LLC
Lucentra Care, LLC is a growing in-home and telehealth ABA therapy practice serving children and families across the Maryland region. We provide individualized, evidence-based behavioral services designed around each family's needs — combining telehealth flexibility with the in-person support Maryland Medicaid requires.
Our team is built on a foundation of clinical excellence, compassionate care, and collaborative culture. We believe great BCBAs deserve the administrative support, manageable caseloads, and professional community they need to do their best work — and we've built our organization around making that possible.
Position Overview
We're seeking a dedicated, clinically skilled BCBA to join our team — full-time with full benefits, or part-time / fee-for-service if you'd rather build a caseload on your own schedule. This is a remote position: the large majority of your clinical, supervisory, and administrative work is done via telehealth from wherever you're based. To meet Maryland Medicaid's in-person service requirement, you'll travel to Maryland approximately 1-2 days per month for direct client sessions — all travel expenses (flights/mileage, lodging, and per diem as applicable) are covered by Lucentra Care.
This is an excellent opportunity for a BCBA who wants the flexibility of a remote caseload without giving up hands-on clinical work, and who values clinical depth over volume and genuine family partnership.
Key Responsibilities
Clinical Services
- Conduct FBAs, preference assessments, and skills assessments (VB-MAPP, ABLLS-R, AFLS, Vineland, ADOS)
- Develop individualized treatment plans and evidence-based BIPs
- Analyze progress data and make data-driven program modifications
- Implement naturalistic and structured ABA strategies via telehealth, with in-person sessions during scheduled Maryland travel days
- Maintain accurate, insurance-compliant clinical documentation
Supervision & Team Development
- Provide direct clinical supervision to RBTs and paraprofessionals (remote and in-person)
- Conduct competency assessments, feedback, and training for support staff
- Participate in team meetings, case consultations, and collaborative reviews
- Mentor and support BCBA candidates or trainees
Family & Caregiver Partnership
- Deliver structured parent training and caregiver support via telehealth, with in-person touchpoints during Maryland travel
- Communicate progress and treatment recommendations clearly and supportively
- Foster trust-based partnerships with families
Compliance & Quality
- Adhere to BACB ethics, Maryland LBA regulations, and payer requirements
- Help meet Maryland Medicaid's 25% in-person service requirement through scheduled monthly travel
- Participate in quality assurance initiatives and ongoing training
- Maintain continuing education per BACB and Maryland LBA renewal requirements
Qualifications
Required
- Active BCBA certification in good standing with the BACB
- Active Maryland Licensed Behavior Analyst (LBA) license
- Master's degree in ABA, Psychology, Special Education, or related field
- Experience providing ABA services to pediatric clients with ASD
- Experience supervising RBTs or behavior technicians
- Strong organizational, communication, and clinical decision-making skills
- Willingness and ability to travel to Maryland approximately 1-2 days per month (travel costs covered)
Preferred
- 2+ years of post-certification BCBA clinical experience
- Experience with early intervention (ages 2–6)
- Familiarity with insurance authorization and documentation processes
- Experience delivering parent training via telehealth
- Background in multidisciplinary collaboration (SLP, OT, or similar)
Please note: an active Maryland LBA license is required at the time of hire — licensure eligibility alone doesn't satisfy this requirement. If you're mid-process on your LBA application, reach out and we're happy to talk timing.
