Overcoming Behavioral Roadblocks in Intervention

Join me in this workshop where we will delve into the world of managing undesired behaviors in speech therapy. Our speaker will share their personal experience with their own child with autism, allowing us to gain valuable insights into the relationship between behavior and communication. We will explore possible causes of undesired behaviors, considering Maslow's hierarchy and emphasizing the importance of understanding the function of a child's behavior. Get ready to learn about the complete behavioral learning trial, including antecedent, behavior, and consequence, and discover why reinforcers are more effective than punishments in managing behaviors. We will also cover accommodations, modifications, and behavior analysis, and dive into various behavior interventions. Through engaging case studies, we will witness the implementation of analyses and interventions, equipping us with practical strategies to effectively manage undesired behaviors in speech therapy.
