Collaborative Treatment, Part I

Send us Fan MailBehavior encompasses a wide range of activity from talking, to moving around to just about anything that makes us animate as human animals. Yet ABA is often quickly boiled down to the 'bad behavior' science, addressing the tantrums, excessive crying, dropping to the ground, self-injurious behavior, etc. This general overview can be so pervasive that we can easily forget the need for other professionals to get a child to sit down and attend, both super important learning behaviors, not misbehaviors, that ABA attends to readily. Hence, there is an active collaboration that should occur across these expansive so-called 'transdisciplinary teams,' whether educationally or medically based, to ensure the child in the middle is getting everyone's best, and in well-choreographed orchestration that supplements and complements, avoiding internal contradictions--that's a tall order. An order that should be easily filled no less. In this episode, Mike and Dan open up the conversation on collaborative treatment, discussing services like SLP (speech/language) and OT (occupational therapy) that are often active for a child along with ABA. They also begin to discuss more mainstream applications of ABA in areas like psychiatry and the prospective and elusive behavioral pediatrics, both topics that will be explored in greater detail in Part II of this episode on collaborative treatment. Sit back, relax, and drink this one in, as a refill awaits you. Cheers--always analyze responsibly.  Support the show🔥 Enjoyed this episode?
