- Full-Time or Part-Time | Remote Lucentra Care, LLC Columbia, MD 21045 Remote (occasional required travel to Maryland) $90 - $110 an hour Part-time, Contract, Full-time

Job Type: Full-time, Part-time, Contract

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.

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.
