HR Bloom Partners is a California HR and payroll consultancy that works specifically with ABA therapy clinics. It was founded in 2025 by Marianne Garcia-Cervantes after more than 20 years of leadership in the optical and behavioral-health industries, and works remotely with clinics across California from its base in the Inland Empire. Services cover hiring and onboarding RBTs and BCBAs, supervision-aware onboarding, employee handbooks, hourly payroll, and California compliance.
Who this is for
The HR realities of an ABA clinic
An ABA clinic grows by hiring fast and keeping its team stable, all while protecting client continuity, supervision ratios, and clean documentation. The hiring and the day-to-day people management look nothing like a generic office, and that is exactly where most HR support falls short.
What makes ABA HR different
- Hiring RBTs and BCBAs at scale to keep up with caseloads and growth
- High turnover that disrupts client continuity when a familiar face leaves
- Credentialing- and supervision-adjacent onboarding that has to be right from day one
- Documentation and payer pressure that runs through everything the clinic does
Where clinics get stuck
- Hiring RBTs fast enough to staff the clients already on the schedule
- Tracking supervision and ratios as the team grows past what a spreadsheet can hold
- Payroll run off the side of the desk for variable hourly schedules
- Compliance that gets harder, not easier, as the clinic adds staff

Hiring & onboarding
Finding and onboarding RBTs and BCBAs at the pace your caseload demands, with onboarding that fits supervision and documentation from day one.

Operations
Tightening the day-to-day systems behind scheduling, people, and payroll as the clinic scales.
California compliance
The rules that trip up growing clinics
California is one of the most demanding states for employers. For a growing clinic without a dedicated HR person, these are the areas where mistakes get expensive.
- Meal and rest break rules for hourly RBTs and clinical staff
- California paid sick leave, accrual, and carryover
- Overtime and wage-and-hour for non-exempt hourly employees
- Final-paycheck timing when an RBT or BCBA leaves
- Required workplace postings and notices, kept current
- Onboarding paperwork and employee classification done right the first time

Questions
ABA therapy HR questions, answered
Do you hire RBTs and BCBAs?
Yes. Hiring and onboarding RBTs and BCBAs at the pace a clinic needs is a core part of HR for ABA therapy. We help you source, screen, and onboard clinical staff so caseloads stay covered as you grow.
Can you track supervision and ratios as part of onboarding?
We build onboarding so supervision and ratio expectations are clear from day one, and we keep the people side organized so it is easy to see who supervises whom. We work alongside your clinical leadership, who own the clinical supervision itself.
Can you run payroll for hourly RBTs?
Yes. We can run payroll end to end for variable hourly RBT schedules, with overtime, meal-break, and sick-leave rules handled correctly for California, or set it up and coach your team to run it.
We are a growing clinic with no HR person. Where do we start?
Most of our ABA clients do not have a dedicated HR person. We start with a free consultation, look at where the risk and the time drain are, and give you a clear plan you can act on as you scale.
What areas do you serve?
We are based in the Inland Empire, between Rancho Cucamonga and Riverside, and work remotely with clinics across California.
