Bierman is a teaching hospital for pediatric therapy. That means two missions run at once: exceptional outcomes for children and exceptional development for the clinicians who deliver them.
Most ABA providers deploy clinicians. Bierman develops them. The Teaching Hospital model means mentorship is structured, learning is expected, and the systems here are designed to build clinical judgment, not just fill sessions.
Team Leads, Clinical Directors, and BCBAs provide real-time coaching in the room, not from a distance.
Daily measurement means you always know whether something is working, and you have the data to act on it.
This is a high-expectations environment with the support infrastructure to match.
"Progress is visible. I'm not guessing whether something is working."
Dr. Chrissy Barosky, BCBA-D, Chief Clinical Officer
