While behavior analysts might think themselves immune to falling into poor practices when supporting students in public schools, don't forget that we too are sensitive to the contingencies of our environment. And when those environments are using statistically higher rates of punishment in the form of harsh discipline practices for females of color... This week we're joined by special guest, Dr. Mawule Sevon to discuss the research on this terrible trend, how behavior analysts might inadvertantly support its promulgation by responding to assessment and observation requests, and what our field can do to support anti-racist practices in school discipline.

Behavior analysts talk about the environment. Ximena Valle designs it.Ximena Valle, AIA, LEED AP, founding principal of FIFTEEN Architecture + Design, joins Liat to break down what really goes into designing for neurodiverse communities, and it's a lot more than ramps and sensory rooms. We talk spaces that make you feel like an animal versus ones that feel like a spa, paint blends that stop kids from peeling the walls, and arranging furniture to keep clients engaged. Ximena breaks down how color and layout shape behavior, how bad design burns out staff too, and what BCBAs and educators can steal for their own classrooms and therapy rooms.Connect with Ximena:fifteenarch.comLinkedIn Connect with Behavior BitchesInsta: @behaviorbitchespodcastFacebook: Behavior Bitches PodcastWebsite: BehaviorBitches.comContact Us: For podcast inquiries, episode ideas, or just to say hi, email us at behaviorbitches@studynotesaba.com Leave us a 5-star review in the Apple Podcast App so we can read it to everyone during our episodes and make us super happy!Looking for BCBA Exam Prep or CEUs?• Whether you need help passing the BCBA exam or are looking to earn CEUs, Study Notes ABA has you covered.

Send us Fan MailABA on Tap is proud to sit down with Lupe Castañeda (Part 2 of 2):You can have the best behavior plan in the world and still fail if the classroom doesn't trust you. Mike and Dan pick up part two with Lupe Castaneda, and get practical about school-based ABA, BCBA leadership in schools, and the messy middle where collaboration meets real-world constraints. We talk through what it looks like when we're “not the experts” in the family system or the classroom environment, yet we're brought in because something is already going wrong, and the people in the room may not want change.From there, we get into the hard stuff most people won't say out loud: school politics, predetermined placement decisions, and how to protect your staff when they're doing great work but still getting nitpicked. Lupe shares how he approaches teacher buy-in by building rapport, talking with paraprofessionals, and living the principle of “show me, don't tell me” rather than being the BCBA in the corner with a laptop. We also explore supervision and mentorship strategies that improve retention, including bi-directional feedback, coaching, and shaping performance instead of punishing mistakes.We then zoom into tactics for bridging 1:1 ABA into group instruction: small-group DTT, instructional pacing, short learning sprints, contextual fit, and preparing students for natural environments. Along the way we unpack clinical judgment, crisis prevention, and why it matters to teach teams how to think on the fly, especially when the difference between an extinction burst and failed treatment is not obvious to educators. We wrap with burnout prevention, skill diversification, and why staying curious might be the most underrated career strategy in behavior analysis.If this helped you, subscribe, share it with a school-based BCBA or teacher, and leave a review so more people can find the show.

After 10 years of podcasting, we decided that if we were going to do an ethics episode for Guest Month, we'd go big. And you can't get much bigger when talking about ethics in behavior analysis than Dr. Jon Bailey himself. We dive into the formation of the ethical codes we know, love, and follow, hearing on-the-ground stories from Dr. Bailey as to what went well and what...could have gone better in preparing behavior analysts for ethical challenges we face every day and the challenges of the near future. Plus, stories from the ABA Ethics Hotline! Make sure to listen through this episode thoroughly because if Dr. Bailey has ethical advice, you don't want to miss it!

The best outcomes happen when we stop working in silos and start learning from each other.I recently had the chance to be a guest on Dr. Selena J. Layden's podcast, and I knew I wanted to share our conversation with you because it highlights something I'm deeply passionate about, meaningful collaboration between speech-language pathologists and BCBAs. When we recognize each other's expertise and work together, we create better outcomes for the students we serve.We talked about my journey from school-based speech therapy into the world of ABA, how those experiences shaped ABA Speech, and why I believe communication and behavior support are strongest when they are aligned. We also explored common misconceptions between our professions, practical ways to build trust with colleagues, and why curiosity and open communication can go a long way.One of my favorite parts of our discussion was sharing what I wish every school-based BCBA understood about speech-language pathology. Our training is incredibly broad, and many of us continue developing our expertise long after graduate school. The same is true for BCBAs, which is why ongoing learning and collaboration matter so much.Whether you're an SLP, BCBA, educator, or part of an interdisciplinary team, I hope this conversation encourages you to build stronger partnerships that help every student communicate and thrive.#speechtherapy #autismWhat's Inside:Why speech therapy and ABA are stronger togetherSimple ways to build meaningful collaboration in school settingsWhat I wish every school-based BCBA knew about speech-language pathologyHow mutual respect and ongoing learning improve student outcomesMentioned In This Episode:Grab Say it With MeThe Behavior Education ConnectionEarn CEUs with a community of peers.

The future our learners build should reflect what matters to them, not just the goals others set for them. We explore what it means to include client voice in future planning through every stage of development, from early choice making to meaningful participation in transition planning and adulthood.We discuss why learner assent, autonomy, and self advocacy should be taught from an early age and how everyday opportunities to communicate preferences help prepare learners for bigger life decisions. We also look at common barriers that can limit participation, including assumptions about communication, caregiver priorities, and time constraints, while sharing practical ways to create more person centered planning.We also talk about balancing family perspectives with learner independence, supporting meaningful communication in all its forms, and focusing on strengths when planning for the future. Whether supporting young children or preparing teens and young adults for adulthood, our goal is to help every learner have a genuine voice in shaping a future that reflects their interests, preferences, and quality of life.What's Inside: Teaching self advocacy and choice making from an early ageSupporting client voice in transition and future planningBalancing family priorities with learner autonomy and strengthsMentioned in This Episode:The Spark: A Mother's Story of Nurturing, Genius, and AutismWhat Color Is Your Parachute?

For decades, behaviour analysts have worked to develop evidence-based interventions that improve quality of life for children and families. But evidence-based doesn't always mean culturally responsive. In this episode, Ben welcomes Chloe Wang, BCBA and PhD candidate at the University of British Columbia, whose dissertation explores a culturally responsive, group-based Family-Centred Positive Behaviour Support program designed specifically for Chinese immigrant families of children with autism. Chloe shares her remarkable journey from immigrating to Canada as a teenager, discovering behaviour analysis almost by accident, completing her master's degree at Brock University, helping establish an autism treatment centre in China, and returning to UBC to pursue research that bridges science with culture. One of the most compelling aspects of Chloe's work is her commitment to co-design. Before launching her randomized controlled trial, she conducted focus groups with both families and professionals to refine every aspect of the intervention—from language and examples to program structure and delivery. Those conversations led to significant changes, including splitting the original 16-week program into two levels and expanding discussions around reinforcement and punishment after families expressed a desire to fully understand behavioural principles before embracing Positive Behaviour Support. Ben and Chloe also explore: Why culture influences how families experience behavioural intervention The importance of implementation science in clinical practice Family-centred PBS across prevention tiers Measuring meaningful outcomes beyond behaviour reduction Maintaining treatment effects after intervention ends Using technology to improve long-term sustainability Future directions for culturally responsive behaviour analysis This episode highlights how listening to families doesn't weaken behaviour analysis—it strengthens it. As our profession continues to grow globally, Chloe's work provides a thoughtful roadmap for adapting evidence-based practice while remaining grounded in behavioural science.

Send us Fan MailABA on Tap is proud to sit down with Lupe Castañeda (Part 1 of 2):If you've ever walked into a school confident in your assessment, your data, and your “best practice” plan, and still watched it fall apart by week two, you're not alone. Mike and Dan sit down with Lupe Castaneda, a longtime school-based BCBA and consultant, to talk about what actually makes ABA in schools work, and what quietly makes it fail even when everyone has good intentions.We start with Lupe's path into the field, from early exposure to children with disabilities to adapted physical education, autism support, and becoming one of the earliest full-time BCBAs employed by a Texas school district. Along the way, he shares the moments that reshaped his practice, including a hard lesson about making changes without family input and a blunt IEP meeting reminder that experience means nothing if you cannot explain what you will do for this specific child.From there, we dig into the practical heart of school-based behavior support: family-centered programming, meaningful long-term goals, parent education, and the legal and team-driven reality of the IEP process. We also break down two essentials for any behavior intervention plan or functional behavior assessment in a school setting: collaboration and contextual fit. A plan is only “evidence-based” if it can be implemented by real educators in real classrooms with real constraints, and if it respects the priorities of the student and family.This is Part 1 of our conversation with Lupe.

Since we've done about 100 episodes pointing out the general lack of preparedness of BCBAs leaving grad school and jumping right into public school work, it'd be pretty mean of us not to have some episodes where we tell you HOW to prepare. And this week we have special guests, Dr. Kristin Foley and Dr. Fina Robertson, doing just that. We cover some of the basics as to how to make friends with teachers and administrators rather than alienating them with your behavior analytic jargon before discussing specific reflection and action steps needed to ensure not just competence in your work, but also maintaining your ethical expectations while you get to work. Quick! You've still got two months of summer vacation to listen up, follow Dr. Foley and Dr. Robertson's guidance, and get your prep in gear! This episode is available for 1.0 LEARNING CEU.

What happens when two SLPs and BCBAs get together to tackle the biggest conversations in our fields? You get an honest discussion about collaboration, research, and keeping students at the center of every decision.Today, we're flipping the script and I'm answering some of the questions I hear most often about speech therapy and ABA, from choosing AAC vocabulary to navigating current topics like gestalt language processing, prompting, and aided language modeling. I share why I believe we have to move beyond an "all or nothing" mindset and focus on what the research tells us while making thoughtful, ethical decisions for each individual learner. Dr. Giles and I also dig into functional communication, response forms, and why collecting meaningful data should guide every intervention we use. My hope is that these conversations help bridge the gap between disciplines so we can spend less time debating and more time helping our students communicate with confidence.#autism #speechtherapyWhat's Inside:Why collaboration between SLPs and BCBAs leads to better outcomes for learnersHow I think about AAC vocabulary, response forms, and functional communicationMy perspective on gestalt language processing, prompting, and current researchWhy data driven decision making should shape every communication interventionMentioned In This Episode:Grab Say it With MeEarn CEUs with a community of peers.

What happens when our learners leave school but still need support navigating everyday life? We explore the functional skills that truly matter as teens and young adults move toward greater independence. From communication and self-advocacy to hygiene, community safety, leisure skills, and daily living routines, we discuss how meaningful goals can create lasting impact beyond the classroom.We share why transition planning should start much earlier than many people think and how working backward from long-term outcomes can help identify the skills that will make the biggest difference in adulthood. We also discuss the importance of balancing autonomy with safety, teaching skills in natural environments, and involving learners and families in the goal-setting process.Throughout the conversation, we highlight practical ways to build independence while respecting individual strengths, interests, cultural values, and future goals. Whether a learner is working toward independent living, supported living, employment, or greater participation in their community, functional skills provide the foundation for a more meaningful and self-directed life.What's Inside: Why functional skills should be prioritized earlyBuilding communication, self-advocacy, and daily living skillsCreating individualized transition plans for adulthoodMentioned in This Episode:Episode 176: Fostering Independence with Dr. Peter Gerhardt & Dr. Shanna BahryMeaningful Goals by Peter Gerhardt and Shana Berry HowToABA.com/joinHow to ABA on YouTubeFind us on FacebookFollow us on Instagram

Welcome back to ABA Without the Jargon, the mini-series where we take common ABA and special education terms and translate them into everyday language.In this episode, we're breaking down one of the most important concepts in behavior analysis: the ABCs of Behavior.We'll explain:✔️ What an antecedent really is✔️ What counts as behavior (and what doesn't)✔️ Why consequences are more than punishments✔️ How the ABCs help us understand patterns in behavior✔️ Why understanding behavior leads to better supportWhether you're a teacher, paraeducator, RBT, BCBA, parent, or caregiver, this episode will help you make sense of behavior without the jargon.

Behavior analysts love their jargon. Kendall Ryndak Samuel, BCBA and creator of @the.behavior.influencer, says it's time to knock it off. She and Liat dig into why our field does such a shitty job explaining itself, why big words just make us sound smart without actually helping anyone, and why the ethics code demands we use language people can understand.Behavioral Concepts Covered: PunishmentReinforcementFixed ratio scheduleExtinctionMatching lawVerbal behaviorPairingPreference assessmentConnect with Kendall:@the.behavior.influencer on TikTok, Instagram, and LinkedInbxinfluencer.comGrab her book, Talk Behavior to Me, wherever you buy books.ABA Language and Translation ResourcesConnect with Behavior BitchesInsta: @behaviorbitchespodcastFacebook: Behavior Bitches PodcastWebsite: BehaviorBitches.comContact Us: For podcast inquiries, episode ideas, or just to say hi, email us at behaviorbitches@studynotesaba.com Leave us a 5-star review in the Apple Podcast App so we can read it to everyone during our episodes and make us super happy!Looking for BCBA Exam Prep or CEUs?• Whether you need help passing the BCBA exam or are looking to earn CEUs, Study Notes ABA has you covered.

Leadership isn't something we inherit—it's something we model. In this powerful multi-generational conversation, Ben Reiman welcomes Quatiba Davis, along with her daughters, Keniyah Rowe and Kennedy Rowe, for an honest discussion about leadership, resilience, representation, disability, family, and the future of Applied Behaviour Analysis. Quatiba shares the remarkable journey that took her from special education teacher to becoming the first Black Chief Clinical Officer in ABA, overseeing clinical services across more than 50 clinics. Along the way, she reflects on growing up in the Bronx, overcoming adversity, learning through failure, and why she believes leadership is built by serving others rather than pursuing titles. Episode 279 begins with Kennedy's story. Following an in-utero stroke, Kennedy faced developmental challenges that changed the trajectory of her mother's career forever. What began as one family's search for answers ultimately inspired Quatiba to pursue behaviour analysis and dedicate her career to improving the lives of others. As the discussion unfolds, Keniyah shares her own path—from graphic design to psychology and now graduate studies in behaviour analysis at The Chicago School. Rather than simply following in her mother's footsteps, she reflects on finding her own identity, embracing leadership in her own way, and exploring how creativity and behaviour science can intersect. Together, the family discusses: • How modelling shapes future leaders • Parenting through adversity • Disability, dignity, and high expectations • Black representation within behaviour analysis • The importance of Historically Black Colleges and Universities (HBCUs) • Entrepreneurship and leadership • Why failure often becomes our greatest teacher • Mentorship and paying opportunities forward • Building businesses without sacrificing ethics • Creating a legacy through service Throughout the conversation, one message continually emerges: leadership is not defined by job titles or professional status. Leadership is reflected in the people we encourage, the barriers we remove, and the opportunities we create for those who come after us. Whether you're an experienced BCBA, a student entering the field, a parent, educator, or someone passionate about creating meaningful change, this episode offers wisdom that extends far beyond behavior analysis. About Our Guests Quatiba Davis is a Board Certified Behavior Analyst, executive clinical leader, keynote speaker, professor, and author whose work focuses on clinical excellence, leadership, ethics, assessment, and expanding representation within Applied Behavior Analysis.

Many behavior analysts have experienced the frustration of teaching a skill successfully in one setting only to discover that it doesn't transfer to the situations where it actually matters. In this episode, I sit down with Kristina Montgomery and Emily Beal Wilkinson of Victory Academy to discuss how Essential for Living (EFL) and event-based teaching can help bridge that gap. Kristina and Emily share their professional journeys into behavior analysis and describe how discovering Dr. Patrick McGreevy's Essential for Living framework reshaped their approach to supporting learners with limited skill repertoires. Rather than focusing on isolated skill acquisition, EFL prioritizes the development of functional, meaningful skills that improve quality of life and increase independence. A major focus of our conversation is event-based teaching, an instructional approach that embeds learning opportunities within naturally occurring and highly meaningful activities. From gardening and cooking to operating school cafés and participating in role-playing activities, Kristina and Emily explain how these experiences allow practitioners to teach multiple skills simultaneously while creating natural sources of reinforcement. We also discuss: How Kristina and Emily first discovered Essential for Living and why it resonated with their clinical experiences. Why traditional skill-building approaches sometimes fail to produce meaningful generalization. The concept of "stacking" activities to address multiple goals through a single event. Examples of event-based teaching activities including gardening, cooking, cafés, and community-based experiences. A detailed case study illustrating the transition from VB-MAPP-style programming to contextual, event-based instruction. How literacy, communication, social, and adaptive skills can be embedded within meaningful activities. The role of natural reinforcement in improving learner engagement. Their innovative health and wellness program designed to teach tolerance for medical and dental procedures. How desensitization training can reduce the need for sedation, restraint, and other restrictive practices. The collateral benefits these programs create for families and healthcare providers. Research questions related to contextual instruction, assessment, staff satisfaction, and BCBA training. Advice for newly certified behavior analysts on professional development and values-based practice. This episode will be especially valuable for behavior analysts, special educators, and anyone supporting individuals with significant support needs who are looking for practical ways to make instruction more meaningful, functional, and socially significant.

Every student deserves a way to communicate with the world, and that belief has guided my work from the very beginning.Today, I'm sharing something incredibly special, the story behind my new book, Say It With Me: Naturalistic Tools to Spark Speech and Social Engagement. This is the resource I wish I had when I first started working with autistic learners who were not yet speaking, struggled to engage in therapy, or faced behavioral barriers that made learning more challenging.I take you behind the scenes of my journey, from my early days at the Cleveland Clinic Autism Center to the lessons that shaped the compassionate, collaborative approach I use today. I also walk through the practical strategies featured in the book, including assessment, joint attention, play-based learning, AAC, social engagement, group therapy, behavior supports, and meaningful goal writing. My goal has always been to make research approachable and actionable so you can feel confident putting these ideas into practice right away.Whether you're a speech-language pathologist, BCBA, educator, or parent, I hope this conversation leaves you feeling encouraged and equipped with new ways to support learners who are often the hardest to reach.#autism #speechtherapyWhat's Inside:Building the foundation for communication through engagement, play, and joint attentionPractical strategies for AAC, language development, and meaningful generalizationSupporting learners with behavioral barriers through collaborative careWriting effective goals and creating stronger IEP and team meetingsMentioned In This Episode:Grab Say it With MeEarn CEUs with a community of peers.

Burnout in ABA is not always about long hours or packed schedules. Often, it comes from the emotional labor that accompanies supporting clients, families, staff, and teams every day. In this conversation, we explore the invisible demands of helping professions and how constantly staying regulated, managing difficult conversations, and carrying the concerns of others can quietly drain our energy over time.We discuss why burnout is often connected to boundaries, workplace systems, and the expectations we place on ourselves. Compassionate professionals frequently struggle with saying no, setting limits, or recognizing when they have reached capacity. Yet protecting our time and energy is not selfish. It is essential for providing ethical, high-quality care.We also share practical ways to recognize emotional overload, create sustainable boundaries, and build habits that support long-term success in the field.

Send us Fan MailABA on Tap is proud to present Asia Johnson (Part 1 of 2):A two-pound baby in the NICU. A young mom in a demanding academic track. Years of sleepless nights, confusing behaviors, and a system full of waitlists and half-answers. Asia Johnson joins us to share the throughline that connects all of it-- learning how to advocate for her daughter, and then bringing that same urgency and empathy into the ABA field as an RBT and later a BCBA.In this pour of ABA on Tap, Mike, Dan and Asia  get real about what families feel after an autism diagnosis, especially when the people around them do not understand ASD, and when community stigma makes support harder to access. Asia breaks down why the five stages of grief are not just theory, but a practical tool for parent support and for clinicians who want to teach skills without ignoring the emotional load caregivers carry. We also talk about acceptance as a daily practice: redefining happiness, building structure, and choosing goals that protect dignity and independence.From masking and stimming to school accommodations and powerful self-advocacy, Asia gives vivid examples of what growing up autistic can look like for a level one pre-teen. Then we dig into culturally responsive ABA: dialect, identity, and why therapy must meet a child where they are rather than sanding down culture to fit a narrow idea of “proper.” Finally, Asia shares what she has seen when ABA goes wrong and why ethical leadership has to interrupt harmful clinic cultures before they reproduce.Enjoy this first pour, return for part 2, share this with a parent or clinician who needs it, subscribe and leave a review with your take.

Some kids are picky eaters, but when does it become something more?Feeding challenges can feel overwhelming for families, especially when mealtimes become stressful, food choices become extremely limited, or concerns about nutrition start to grow. That's why I was excited to welcome feeding specialist Margaryta Kuzmin to the podcast. Together, we unpacked the difference between typical picky eating and pediatric feeding disorders, and why early support can make such a meaningful difference.Margaryta shares the developmental reasons many children go through selective eating phases, along with important red flags that may signal a deeper concern. We also explore why feeding difficulties are rarely about food alone. Medical, nutritional, motor, sensory, and social factors can all play a role. I especially loved our discussion about how providers can approach these conversations with families in a supportive, compassionate way.Whether you're a speech-language pathologist, BCBA, educator, or parent, this conversation highlights the power of collaboration and why feeding concerns deserve attention early on.#autism #speechtherapyWhat's Inside:The difference between picky eating and pediatric feeding disordersCommon feeding red flags that professionals and parents should watch forWhy medical, nutritional, sensory, and motor factors all matterThe professionals who make up a strong feeding team and how they work togetherMentioned In This Episode:Feeding MattersKuzmin SLPMargaryta Kuzmin on InstagramEarn CEUs with a community of peers.

Parent training is one of the most important parts of ABA, but it can quickly become overwhelming when families are given too much information, too many strategies, or expectations that do not fit into their daily lives. In this conversation, we share practical ways to make parent coaching more supportive, effective, and sustainable.We discuss the importance of listening first, identifying meaningful family goals, and focusing on one or two priorities at a time. Rather than expecting parents to implement complex programs, we explore how to teach skills that fit naturally into routines like mealtimes, transitions, and bedtime.We also talk about using behavioral skills training with parents, reducing jargon, creating quick wins, and recognizing signs of overwhelm before frustration sets in. Parent coaching works best when it is collaborative, flexible, and centered on what matters most to each family.When we focus on building confidence instead of perfection, parents are more likely to feel empowered, supported, and successful as they develop new skills alongside their children.What's Inside: How to prioritize meaningful parent goals without creating overwhelmWays to teach skills within everyday family routinesStrategies for building parent confidence through collaboration and quick winsMentioned in This Episode:Episode 133: The BST Model – Behavioral Skills TrainingHowToABA.com/joinHow to ABA on YouTubeFind us on FacebookFollow us on Instagram

Send us Fan MailABA on Tap is proud to present Holli Beth Clauser (Part 2 of 2):Grab a comfortable seat and get ready for your second pour of truth telling and good hiring. "They're just RBTs” might be the most expensive sentence an ABA organization can say. We sit down with Holli Beth Clauser to talk about truth telling, good hiring, and what happens when companies optimize for speed and margin while ignoring training, retention, and the human reality of autism services delivered in a family's home.We dig into the hidden costs of turnover in applied behavior analysis: paid onboarding time, unstaffed cases, added BCBA supervision load, inconsistent sessions, and the reputational damage that follows. From there we get into the messy “soup” leaders actually face, balancing living wages, competitive market pay, and insurance reimbursement rates, plus the pressure to keep profit margins high. We also challenge the industry's obsession with blanket hour recommendations and talk about what it means to “prescribe” ABA therapy with real clinical reasoning and empirical humility.Then we shift into what to do about it. Holli breaks down how to reduce silos between clinical leadership and talent teams through visibility, feedback loops, and accountability, and why “vibe check” interviews quietly bake bias into your hiring. You'll hear a practical interview question you can steal, simple ways to create belonging through specific reinforcement, and a powerful reminder that protocols are for people, not the other way around.

Sure, I bet we can all think of a concept. But could you define exactly what a "concept" is? What it isn't? How about teach a concept? This week Dr. Catherine Williams joins us to look at the concept of concepts using both behavior analytic terminology and some fun, experimental behavioral research.

Transitions are a natural part of life, but that does not make them easy. Whether a learner is moving from ABA services into school, transitioning to a new provider, entering adulthood, or adjusting to a different level of support, these changes can bring uncertainty, fear, and big emotions for everyone involved. In this conversation, we explore why transitions can feel overwhelming and how thoughtful planning can make them more successful for both learners and families.We discuss the importance of starting transition planning early, working backward from long-term goals, and focusing on the skills that will matter most in the next environment. We also share practical ways to support learners through gradual exposure, collaboration across teams, and meaningful opportunities to build independence. Just as importantly, we talk about supporting families with clear communication, compassion, and realistic expectations throughout the process.When transition planning is proactive, collaborative, and individualized, it helps learners move forward with greater confidence while giving families the support they need during times of change.What's Inside: Why transitions can be challenging for learners, families, and professionalsPractical strategies for smoother transitions across settings and stages of lifeHow early planning and collaboration lead to better long-term outcomesMentioned in This Episode:Episode 109: Autism Back to School AdviceHowToABA.com/joinHow to ABA on YouTubeFind us on FacebookFollow us on Instagram

AAC can feel overwhelming for clinicians, but it does not have to stay that way.I'm joined by Valerie Zimmerman from Mindcolor Autism to talk about what happens when BCBAs and SLPs come together to better support autistic learners who use AAC. Valerie shares how her team has prioritized AAC training across their organization, even though many clinicians receive little to no formal instruction in this area. We dig into the real questions providers are asking, from ethical considerations around programming devices to understanding the role of collaboration in helping students communicate more effectively.One of my favorite parts of this conversation is hearing how Mindcolor Autism created a clinical consultation model that gives staff ongoing support when they encounter challenging cases or communication questions. I love seeing organizations build systems that help clinicians feel less alone and more confident in their work.We also talk about the importance of practical, immediately applicable training. Whether you are a BCBA, SLP, RBT, or parent, this conversation highlights how much growth can happen when teams learn together and stay curious about communication. AAC is not just about devices, it is about giving students meaningful ways to connect with the world around them.#autism #speechtherapyWhat's Inside:Why AAC training is essential for both BCBAs and SLPsCommon misconceptions about supporting students who use AACHow Mindcolor Autism built a clinical consultation support modelPractical ways teams can collaborate around communication goalsMentioned In This Episode:Mindcolor Autism AAC Mastery for SLPs and BCBAs All About AAC Bundle Earn CEUs with a community of peers.

When parents are not following through with ABA strategies at home, it is easy to assume they are not motivated or invested. But more often, families are overwhelmed, exhausted, and trying to balance countless competing demands. In this conversation, we talk about why parent follow-through can be so challenging and how we, as ABA professionals, can approach those situations with more compassion, curiosity, and collaboration.We discuss common barriers that affect implementation, including stress, emotional load, complex strategies, lack of immediate reinforcement, and mismatched priorities. We also share practical ways to improve carryover by simplifying strategies, embedding supports into existing routines, modeling in real time, and celebrating small wins along the way.Most importantly, we explore how shifting from a mindset of compliance to partnership can help create meaningful progress for families. Parent coaching is not about perfection or clinical precision at home. It is about building realistic, sustainable strategies that work in everyday life and supporting families in a way that feels manageable and empowering.What's Inside: Why parents may struggle to follow through with ABA strategiesPractical ways to improve parent coaching and carryoverHow collaboration and small wins create long-term successMentioned in This Episode:Episode 137: Parent Coaching/TrainingHowToABA.com/joinHow to ABA on YouTubeFind us on FacebookFollow us on Instagram

Have you ever looked at an AAC device and thought, “Where do I even start?” I've been there too, and I know how overwhelming it can feel.For years, I supported students using AAC while secretly feeling unsure of myself behind the scenes. I could teach communication strategies all day long, but when it came to navigating new systems and vocabulary sets, I remember leaving work feeling defeated and questioning whether I was truly helping my students. That experience completely changed the way I approach AAC today.I'm sharing the story behind our brand-new course, AAC Mastery for SLPs and BCBAs, and why I created it for professionals who want practical, real-world support with AAC instead of more theory that never translates into therapy sessions.

Parent collaboration in ABA is more than regular updates or quick check-ins. It is about building real partnerships grounded in trust, empathy, and shared goals. We explore how shifting away from a “parent training” mindset can create stronger relationships and better outcomes for learners. From navigating difficult conversations to understanding family values and priorities, small changes in communication can make a major difference in how supported families feel.We also discuss practical strategies for creating meaningful collaboration, including scheduling noncontingent check-ins, listening before problem-solving, avoiding clinical jargon, and validating emotions during sensitive conversations. We share examples of how understanding the “why” behind a family's goals can help align treatment priorities while still staying ethical and learner-centered.When parents feel heard and respected, collaboration becomes easier, consistency improves across environments, and families feel more confident carrying strategies into daily life. Strong parent partnerships are not about having all the answers. They are about working together toward shared goals in a compassionate and sustainable way.What's Inside: How to move from parent training to true collaborationPractical communication strategies that build trust with familiesWays to navigate difficult conversations with empathy and clarityMentioned in This Episode:Episode 137: Parent Coaching/TrainingMastering Difficult Conversations: Building Confidence, Compassion, and Clarity in Communication CEUHowToABA.com/joinHow to ABA on YouTubeFind us on FacebookFollow us on Instagram

What if our learners could practice success before they ever step into the real moment?I'm bringing you a conversation that completely reframed the way I think about video modeling, independence, and skill building. We're talking all about self-video modeling and how technology is creating more personalized, neurodiversity-affirming ways to support communication, daily living skills, and behavior regulation.Dr. Rachel Khasky-Levy and Rinat Hitelman share how their work with The Babel Group and Wide Therapy is helping clinicians bridge the gap between therapy and real-world implementation. What stood out to me most was the idea of helping learners visualize themselves already succeeding. Whether it's requesting a favorite snack, transitioning between activities, completing vocational tasks, or building communication skills, this approach focuses on possibility and confidence instead of correction.I also loved hearing how self-video modeling can support learners who may not yet be able to demonstrate a skill independently in real life. By creating personalized visual rehearsals, clinicians and families can give learners repeated exposure to success in a calm, supportive way that feels meaningful and functional.This conversation reminded me why I've always loved using video modeling in therapy. It's practical, engaging, and incredibly empowering for our students across ages and settings.#autism #speechtherapyWhat's Inside:How self-video modeling differs from traditional video modelingWays to target communication, vocational, and daily living skillsUsing visualization to reduce challenging behaviorsWhy personalized tech tools can increase independence and confidenceMentioned In This Episode:The Babel GroupWide TherapyVoiceittEarn CEUs with a community of peers.

Strong collaboration can completely change the way ABA teams function, but it takes more than occasional feedback or quick check-ins to make it work. We're talking about what true collaboration looks like across ABA teams and interdisciplinary professionals, including speech therapists, occupational therapists, teachers, and families.We explore why communication often breaks down when everyone is focused on separate goals, and how shared values can help create stronger partnerships that ultimately improve learner outcomes. From scheduling regular team meetings to reducing jargon and building trust over time, we share practical ways to create more connected and supportive teams.We also discuss common barriers like time constraints, differing communication styles, and misunderstandings between disciplines. Most importantly, we highlight the importance of curiosity, relationship building, and keeping the learner at the center of every conversation. When teams feel supported and connected, collaboration becomes more natural, meaningful, and effective for everyone involved.What's Inside:Why collaboration improves learner outcomesCommon barriers that prevent teams from working togetherPractical ways to build trust and communication across disciplinesMentioned in This Episode:Episode 082: BCBA Collaboration TipsHowToABA.com/joinHow to ABA on YouTubeFind us on FacebookFollow us on Instagram

A few years back, we contributed a book chapter on non-traditional options for disseminating behavior analysis with Matt Cicoria where we became slightly enamored with the idea of communities of practice as a means for knowledge sharing. Well, thanks to our amazing listeners on Patreon, that topic is back and with a full episode. We look at how to create a community of practice, whether the idea actually leads to changes in professional behavior, and what barriers might keep your new group of professional problem solvers down. Protip: Being in Canada appears to be a huge help. This episode is available for 1.0 LEARNING CEU.

What really helps speech sound practice stick once kids leave the therapy room?I'm joined by Shail Silver, founder of SpeechLP and parent to a child receiving speech therapy services, for a thoughtful conversation about carryover, motivation, and how technology can support meaningful speech sound practice at home. As a school-based SLP, this topic is especially important to me because we know progress doesn't just happen during therapy sessions. The real growth comes from consistent practice in everyday environments.Shail shares how his family's experience inspired the creation of SpeechLP, an AI-powered app designed to make articulation practice more engaging and less stressful for both parents and clinicians. We talk about the challenge of getting enough repetitions for true generalization, why carryover can be so difficult for students, and how gamified practice can help keep learners motivated. I also loved hearing how practicing SLPs are actively helping shape the platform so it stays practical and clinically relevant.There's so much potential in tools that support families, reduce clinician workload, and help students build confidence with communication in a fun and functional way.#autism #speechtherapyWhat's Inside:Why carryover matters so much for speech sound progressHow SpeechLP uses AI to support articulation practiceWays clinicians can use technology to support home practiceThe importance of making speech practice motivating for kidsMentioned In This Episode:SpeechLPParagraphAIEarn CEUs with a community of peers.
