What is a virtual behavior technician?

Virtual Behavior Technicians are professionals who provide behavioral therapy services remotely, often through video conferencing platforms. They typically work under the supervision of a Board Certified Behavior Analyst (BCBA) to implement treatment plans for individuals with behavioral challenges, such as those diagnosed with autism spectrum disorder. Their responsibilities include conducting therapy sessions, collecting data on client progress, and communicating with families and supervising clinicians. This role allows for flexibility and the ability to reach clients who may not have easy access to in-person services.
