What is an LBA?

LBAs, or Licensed Behavior Analysts, are professionals who are certified to practice applied behavior analysis (ABA) to help individuals with behavioral, developmental, or mental health challenges. They assess clients, develop treatment plans, and implement evidence-based behavioral interventions, often working with children with autism or related disorders. LBAs must complete specific educational requirements, supervised experience, and pass a certification exam, typically governed by state licensure and certification boards.
