Earn 0.5 Ethics CEU for listening!

A signed treatment plan doesn’t equal consent. And when we treat it that way, we risk turning parent training into another source of coercion.

In this episode of Action Insights: The Intersection of ABA and Mental Health, Amelia Dalphonse, MA, BCBA, and Nikki Dionne, LCMHC, BCBA, confront common assumptions about consent in parent training. Through candid discussion and real-world examples, they unpack where subtle coercion can hide—and how shifting toward collaborative, compassionate practice transforms both parent experience and child outcomes.

What You'll Learn:
✔ Why true consent in parent training is ongoing—not a one-time event
✔ How coercion can show up in even well-intentioned ABA practices
✔ Practical strategies for building collaborative, trauma-informed parent partnerships
✔ The ethical and relational power of consent-driven, culturally responsive care

This is a must-listen for BCBAs, therapists, and educators committed to ethical, compassionate parent collaboration.
