As a board-certified behavior analyst (BCBA), you work with a diverse range of clients, particularly those with autism spectrum disorder (ASD). Some of these clients may not be verbal at all, while others may have very advanced language skills. For these clients and their families, you need a flexible and adaptable therapeutic framework to ensure the best behavior outcomes.
Drawn from relational frame theory (RFT), the psychological theory of human language, acceptance and commitment therapy (ACT) can be a valuable tool in your practice. With this comprehensive professional manual, you will learn to conceptualize your cases using ACT, create your own exercises, generate metaphors, be present with the unique individual learner in front of you, and practice the core ACT skills flexibly to achieve better behavior outcomes for clients and their families.
You will find an overview of the theoretical connections between behavior analysis, RFT, and ACT, as well as the core ACT skills, including present-moment awareness, flexible perspective-taking, committed action, and values work. Additionally, you will discover information on cultural competency and diversity to help you service a wide range of clients.
If you are like many BCBAs, you may need specialized resources when working with linguistically sophisticated clients, as well as their parents and caregivers. Let this book be your comprehensive guide to incorporating ACT into your work.
