Beyond Good Intentions: Ableism, Therapist Bias, and Ethical Practice in ABA This training is eligible for 1.0 BACB Ethics Learning CEUs. This reflective and clinically grounded CEU explores how therapist bias, ableism, emotional responses, and societal assumptions can quietly influence client care within ABA. Through a behaviour analytic perspective, participants will examine how language, expectations, reinforcement history, and clinical decision making shape therapeutic interactions, programming, and learner experiences. This training moves beyond obvious ethical violations and focuses on the subtle and often unintentional ways bias may appear in everyday practice, including lowered expectations, normalization focused goals, assumptions about communication and autonomy, and therapist emotional responding during difficult sessions. This CEU is designed to support clinicians in developing greater awareness, intentionality, and ethical reflection within their professional practice while promoting meaningful, respectful, and socially valid support for learners. Appropriate for: BCBAs, BCaBAs, RBTs, ABA therapists, supervisors, students, and interdisciplinary professionals working with neurodivergent individuals.
