From Clinics to Classrooms, The Expansive Reach of ABA

In this episode of the Psyched to Practice podcast, Dr. Jessica Glass-Kendorski joins Dr. Ray Christner and Paul Wagner to explore the broad application of Applied Behavior Analysis (ABA) across clinical, educational, healthcare, and organizational settings. Far beyond a narrow intervention model, Dr. Glass-Kendorski presents ABA as a dynamic, evidence-based science of behavior grounded in functional assessment, environmental context, and individualized intervention. The discussion clarifies common misconceptions about ABA and highlights its ethical, humanistic, and collaborative dimensions. Dr. Glass-Kendorski emphasizes the importance of generalization, stakeholder engagement, and culturally responsive practices, offering listeners practical strategies for applying ABA in ways that honor client values and promote meaningful behavior change. 

Course Objectives:

1. Differentiate the seven core dimensions of Applied Behavior Analysis and their relevance to effective intervention. 
2. Evaluate ethical considerations and collaborative strategies for implementing ABA in school, family, and community settings.
3. Apply consultation and coaching skills to reduce barriers and increase stakeholder adherence in diverse contexts.
4. Integrate ABA principles with trauma-informed, neuro-affirming, and culturally responsive approaches to support individualized, respectful care.
