[quote=Anonymous]^ I should mention that we almost always provided services on weekends, 1 direct 2-3 hour session Friday evening or sometimes a short Direct session followed by dinner with the family or something like that; usually 2 sessions per weekend day so maybe Saturday a 9-12 1:1 services, 1-4 community or play date, then sometimes another 1:1 service from 5-7 for some families; usually similar on Sunday or accompanying to church in AM then afternoon 1:1 at home and maybe a short playdate in the late afternoon.

Yes, it was that intensive for most families, and almost everyone wanted weekend hours. That’s all I worked during college and was always in demand turning down new families and filling in for people on other teams.

So you can definitely fit in the 20-40 + hours in a week, it just depends on what you want to sacrifice really. Very few parents didn’t want any weekend hours, most wanted at minimum an extra set of hands to help out during a birthday party or family outing. We had specific 1:1 at home goals as well as community goals (and maintenance objectives) so we never ran out of things to work on despite the setting. [/quote]
