Summary
On today’s episode Elaine Krift, BCBA, takes us on her journey of her son’s diagnosis of ASD. Elaine, a seasoned journalist, took a major career jump at the age of 34, and decided to pursue becoming a BCBA. This episode exhibits the love of a parent, the emotions involved, and the application of ABA through someone who has experienced the other side. Whether you’re a parent of an individual with autism or a provider working with individuals- you will take a lot away from this episode. Elaine left us with the important message that we need not only to meet the child where they are at, but also the parents. This is a good one for so many reasons, but you’ll have to tune in or miss the F out!
