If you are a BCBA, RBT, or parent experiencing ethical distress over compliance-first protocols, you need a practical alternative. *The Assent-Based ABA Playbook* is a clinical manual that guides you through a structured transition to child-led therapy. This guide provides the exact tools needed to honor a child's autonomy without sacrificing skill acquisition.
Inside, you'll find: - An 8-week clinical blueprint to phase out compliance-first prompts while maintaining developmental progress. - 20 built-in verbal and non-verbal Assent-Tracking Worksheets to monitor active engagement. - A physical 'Assent-Withdrawal Response Decision Tree' diagram for real-time clinical decision-making. - 15 situational Affirming ABA Scripts for navigating assent withdrawal during skill-building. - A 30-day self-assessment checklist to audit your own clinical biases and coercion triggers.
This manual is for practitioners and caregivers of autistic children who want to eliminate power struggles. You will walk away with a data-driven methodology to run ethical, assent-based sessions built on trust.
