In this episode Samantha discusses Applied Behavioral Analysis (ABA) and its significance in supporting the neurodivergent community.
She explains ABA as a scientific method aimed at improving socially significant behaviors such as communication, self-help skills, emotional regulation, and social interactions through individualized goals, data collection, positive reinforcement, and environmental modifications.
Samantha highlights the importance of client-centered care, where the preferences and consent of the individuals are prioritized, and discusses the controversial beginnings of ABA, emphasizing the need for programs that respect and empower individuals rather than solely focusing on behavior modification to appear neurotypical.
She also advises on selecting an appropriate ABA program, stressing the involvement of parents and caregivers in the process, and warns against programs that do not respect the insights and expertise of families regarding their own children.
