I hated my new BCBA® position... Until I learned how to love it
I fell onto the couch, still sweating from work. My wife approached me, balancing the toddler on her hip.
“Another one of those days?”
I didn’t respond. She knew the answer. I’d had “one of those days” for the last two months. Ever since I passed my exam and became a supervisor.
It wasn’t always like this…Â
I remember as a technician, I was pretty damn good. I was happy to do 3-5 hour direct sessions, meet with my supervisor, and implement the behavior plan perfectly.Â
But as a supervisor? I felt like I was drowning. 12 clients, 20 techs, and 24+ parents, all pulling for my attention and support.
I felt like a failure, filled with self-doubt and indecision.Â
And then I figured out what was missing
I am willing to bet that you are just like me. Trying as hard as possible to be a great BCBA ®, but feeling like a rat on wheel, never making progress.
The truth is… Something is missing.Â
Three key ingredients you are missing, preventing you from feeling confident and clear
Quick to read ABA research to support and guide your clinical choices
ABA Trainings and CEUs that are practical and useful for clinicians
A constantly updated library of research and how it affects practice
You need access to these ingredients to get the confidence and clarity you are missing.
How? Simple...
Easy access to the most up-to-date research and trainings means your interventions will be more effective, period.
Your client makes progress, which means your caregivers and techs love you, and you…
You finally fall back in love with ABA.

Speaking of damn good clinicians, here is what others have to say about Library Plus and the courses inside…
"I have enjoyed the library so far! It's good for getting a brief overview of articles I wish I had time to read. I also learned how to efficiently read articles on my own to get an idea of the content. This service has been really useful for me as a 2nd year BCBA"
"This was mindblowing!! Loved nerding out on the research and practial steps, as well as diving into some of our most used principles! Definitely going to refer back to this one over and over again!"
"I really enjoyed this topic and making it practical as a clinician to use research to directly impact your decision making in a meaningful way. Thank you for covering!"
"This is one of the best CEUs I may have ever gotten; it felt like a graduate class. While I wish we had had more time to talk about percentile schedule in more detail, I took so many notes on contingency strength and learned a lot. Thank you!"
Great overview of research! I like that you walked us through your process and directly applied to clinical decision making!!

But there is one thing missing. A promise.Â

Don’t hesitate, and don’t be afraid. Library Plus has a 30 day 100% refund policy, no questions asked. If, for any reason, you do not get exactly what you are hoping for, send me an email for an immediate refund.
My first year supervising cases kinda sucked…
- I spent way to long disconnected from the tools that made me a great BCBA ®.
- I spent way to long just “trying to get by” with some of my clients.Â
- I spent way to long not being satisfied with my career path.Â
That was when I learned that in order to love being a behavior analyst, I needed to reconnect with what makes our field great, the research base that turns our clinical guesses into clinical decisions.
Library Plus ensures you get the tools you need right when you need them.Â
Don’t be like me– Don’t waste another day struggling to do a job you were supposed to love. Commit now, for your clients, your techs, and most of all, for you.Â
Commit now to learning to love this field for the long haul.
Congratulations– You are taking your first step in becoming the calm, cool, and confident BCBA ® you have been waiting for.
