Episode 15- The problematic history of ABA Therapy

In this episode I discuss the ableist history surrounding the creation ABA (Applied Behavior Analysis) therapy. I also explain why many Autistic adults that went through ABA as a child have developed PTSD as a result and why the traditional style of ABA therapy can be problematic.*It is important to acknowledge that despite it's serious problems, ABA is still the only support therapy available to many families and many ABA practicioners have come to learn how to apply more neurodiversity affirming practices in their work.
