Behavior Consultant

**********NEW WAVE IS HIRING ACROSS THE STATE OF INDIANA**********

New Wave Wellness is a behavior support services provider, also known as behavior management. Rooted in building trust and lasting relationships, behavior management is a scientific method that is based on the idea that problem behavior is learned over time and maintained by consequences in the environment. Effective behavioral management often requires teaching a new skill or appropriate behavior to replace inappropriate behavior. Assessments and Behavior Support Plans are completed to target problem behaviors and provide our team with methods to support the individual in reducing pain associated with poor choice making and increase personal happiness by teaching more appropriate alternative behaviors. Consistency and repetition are key components to sustainable behavioral change.

The central work of New Wave Wellness is based in behavior support services, allowing us to focus on the various components needed to see change.
