Masters in Practice: From Clinics to Classrooms, the Expansive Reach of ABA w/ Dr. Jessica Glass-Kendorski

Applied Behavior Analysis is often boxed into narrow stereotypes—and controversy—but what if the real story is far bigger, more collaborative, and more humanistic than you think? Join Dr. Jessica Kendorski and Ray Christner for a candid conversation that busts myths, clarifies what ABA truly is (and isn’t), and explores how behavior science radically transforms not only the lives of neurodivergent kids, but entire systems—from families to schools and healthcare. They dive into the ethical essentials, why collaboration and creativity matter more than compliance, and how principles of behavioral science intersect with trauma-informed, neuroaffirming, and systems-based practice. Whether you’re a longtime clinician or new to ABA, this episode brings practical, immediate takeaways you can use—and a fresh perspective on building better outcomes for your clients, your practice, and yourself.Brightminds AdPAR Ad This episode is brought to you by PAR.Explore the AI Report Writer here:https://www.parinc.com/product/ai-report-writer?utm_campaign=38111624-Psyched%20to%20Practice%202026&utm_source=P2P%20Podcast&utm_medium=Related%20PodcastsLearn more about the RIAS-2 NU here:https://www.parinc.com/product/groups/rias-rist-assessments?utm_campaign=38111624-Psyched%20to%20Practice%202026&utm_source=P2P%20Podcast&utm_medium=Related%20PodcastsTo hear more and stay up to date with Paul Wagner, MS, LPC and Ray Christner, Psy.D., NCSP, ABPP visit our website at: http://www.psychedtopractice.com “Be well, and stay psyched"
