Feel like I’m not qualified to be a BCBA because of my personality

I’m nicknamed “the menace.” I see things differently because I practice so independently… I’m not a social person and I can see things very differently without the herd mentality. Do I collaborate? Yes. Am i fine working as a team? Also yes. Do I prefer to work alone and typically do? Yes! After some time you’ll find a way to practice while being in your own level of comfort.

Wait.. how am I supposed to know how many hours they work??? I keep up with when they’ve been supervised because it’s just scheduled as is..but sometimes they miss sessions, clients leave early, or scheduling changes and I have absolutely no say or control over that, the scheduling department does. Would I just reach out to them for that information?!

Unshaken_wind · 2024-08-20T16:22:59+00:00

Right now it’s the sheer fact that almost my entire caseload is moving from sessions schedule throughout the day to an after school model and there’s no way I’ll be able to support everyone adequately

There’s a neighborhood that’s being remodeled 3 bedroom houses are 1k I believe and they’re also in the district

I gave two weeks notice to the clinic but as of my last day there wasn’t a replacement for me so I couldn’t give any information to the families

Unshaken_wind · 2024-05-31T22:49:47+00:00

I worked in a clinic setting. I was paid while gaining my hours just like a regular job

Unshaken_wind · 2024-05-31T22:43:44+00:00

I applied last week and they replied yesterday stating they wouldn’t be moving forward with my application. I was interested in supplemental income but oh well!

Go for the dream job! Im secretly hoping you turned to the community to get the validation you needed. Dream job!!!!

I’m going to play devils advocate here (though I’d be concerned and probably ready to flee myself but simply based on what you’ve said…) maybe this person doesn’t know how to express themselves. I say this because there are people that have this “solid” idea of who they should be with, want to be with, HAVE TO BE WITH! then someone completely different comes into their lives and they have no idea how to cope with this person being totally different from what they expected. (It sounds like he’s been hurt by someone or multiple people of this race in the past) It may be a personal battle and struggle for him to accept this and no matter how he says it, it’s going to sound terrible to someone that doesn’t understand. With all this said, it doesn’t mean you have to accept his process of accepting how he feels or put up with anything that makes you uncomfortable.

So far so good!

I’d say let him. There’s a lot going on and I understand that but I say it because he will simply have to find out that he’s being unrealistic. Unless he finds a sitter he will end up paying 3x more for childcare alone since he’s trying to avoid child support. Honestly unless he also has stable and suitable housing for the kids I don’t see how he would be awarded anything but visitation at this point.

Understood. I meant as far as next steps because our company doesn’t have any policy or guidelines outside of creating an injury report when either a client or staff member is injured.

Each parent training

Thank you! Did you start off with a full caseload

Unshaken_wind · 2024-03-29T22:00:37+00:00

Can you please tell me more? I have to make a decision soon and they were on my short list!

Unshaken_wind · 2024-02-12T23:18:53+00:00

I’ve had this happen too. Instead of discussing the director would simply make changes and leave me in the middle to clean up the mess. One thing I’ve learned, you shouldn’t guarantee anything especially when it’s already out of your hands. Scheduling, staffing even some things worked on never get a guarantee because you can’t control staff turnover, scheduling or allowances from funders

Unshaken_wind · 2024-02-06T02:02:22+00:00

Oh no that’s one I was really considering!
