Compassionate Parent Training in ABA with Leanne Page

In the Field: The ABA Podcast

Join us as we delve into the nuances of compassionate parent training with BCBA Leanne Page from Parenting with ABA. In this episode, we explore how combining empathy with actionable strategies can transform parent training, enhancing both the practice and its outcomes AND how to support trainees and new BCBAs in developing these skills.

Here's what we're exploring:

• How compassionate parent training is different from other approaches
• Utilizing tools and resources like the Compassionate Collaboration Tool (Rohrer, Marshall, Susio and Weiss, 2021) for improving our practice
• Practical strategies for supporting trainees (or ourselves!) in developing these skills

This discussion is a must-listen for BCBAs and ABA trainees seeking to enhance their understanding and practice of compassionate parent training.
