Behavioral interventionists observe and interact with individuals, groups and communities to assist with the healthy functioning of the people in that setting. These professionals focus on specific behaviors that disrupt, exclude or otherwise negatively impact the person or group. Schools, public and private health agencies, workplaces and counseling centers employ practitioners who engage in behavioral interventions. Because behavior intervention is aimed at modifying negative behaviors through treatment plans, such interventions often rely on families, schools or other support systems to assist with monitoring, implementation and adjustment.
