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 serves clinics in Rancho Cucamonga, Riverside, and the Inland Empire on-site, with remote support across California. 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

What we handle

HR, payroll, and operations for your clinic

Hiring & onboarding

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

Employee handbooks

Clear, compliant handbooks written for how an ABA clinic actually runs, covering clinical roles and hourly schedules, not a generic template.

Payroll

Accurate, on-time payroll for hourly RBT schedules, with overtime, meal-break, and sick-leave rules handled correctly.

California compliance

Keeping your clinic current on wage-and-hour, breaks, sick leave, and required postings for hourly clinical staff as the rules change.

Leadership & coaching

Supporting owners and clinical directors so the team works well together and stays through the growth.

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
