Licensed behavior analyst

A licensed behavior analyst is a type of behavioral health professional in the United States who specializes in assessing and modifying behavior. They have at least a master's degree, and sometimes a doctorate, in behavior analysis or a related field.[1] Behavior analysts apply radical behaviorism, or applied behavior analysis, to people across a range of settings, including education, healthcare, and developmental services.[1]
