I probably haven't talked about The Clinical Journey as much as I should have…so I'm working on that. 🫣 😂

Not because I'm trying to convince everybody to sign up. But because I created this series for a reason, and I want the people who could genuinely benefit from it to actually know it exists.

Over the past 2 years, clinicians have reached out to me with questions about how I approach different parts of clinical practice…how I assess, how I build a plan, how I make decisions when treatment needs to change, how I think about generalization, caregiver collaboration, reassessment, and eventually discharge.

And sometimes, it just helps to see how another clinician thinks…seeing someone else's process can give you something to think about, question, adapt, or take back to your own practice.

That's what I wanted The Clinical Journey to be.

And I'm putting a LOT into this series, because I care more about making it meaningful than profitable

So with that said…this is me actually marketing the thing I created. 😂

Alright, alright, alright… I think I figured it out, y'all....

I figured out how to provide mentorship in a way that fits my schedule and my needs, and hopefully fits your schedule and your needs too.

Now lissen.... this ain't gonna be your traditional mentorship. This is an opportunity where we cabln troubleshoot, plan, talk through something happening on your caseload (no client-identifying information, of course), talk professional development, going independent…whatever you need help thinking through.

Book it when you need it. If you don't need it, don't book it! You need me twice this month? Book twice. You need me once every three months? Cool. I really don't care. 😂 Get what you need out of it, lol.

AND...No monthly obligation because…who needs another obligation?!

I love mentorship. I love chatting. I love training. I just had to figure out a way to offer it that made sense for me too. Because as a solo BCBA, time is money.

And if you go ahead and book that session, that's something we can talk about later. 👀

The BCBA I am today is not the BCBA I was when I first started Applied Behavioral Approach Consulting.

When you know better, you do better. And since December 2024, I've been unlearning and relearning, and I need a website that reflected that growth.

A learner saying “no” is not always the part of the treatment plan that needs fixing. 👀

I think sometimes, as clinicians, we get so focused on follow-through that we forget to ask a very important question:

Why am I working harder to make the learner comply with this intervention than I am to figure out why the intervention isn't working? 😬

Because remember… we made the plan. 😂

The timer, the visual, the first/then, the reinforcement system, the prompting procedure, the transition strategy... those are our clinical choices. They are not sacred.

If I introduce a strategy and the learner isn't successful with it, I don't immediately have to turn that moment into:

"Well, now I HAVE to make them do it, because if I let them say no..."

Baby, come back to the clinical side of the table. 😂

That “no” gave us information.

Maybe the step is too big.
Maybe they need more practice.
Maybe there's a prerequisite skill we're missing.
Maybe the environment needs to change.
Maybe we need to approach it differently.

And yes… maybe our intervention just wasn't that good. 🫣

That doesn't mean we abandon the goal. It means we stop confusing commitment to the clinical goal with commitment to our first idea for getting there.

We're behavior analysts.

The learner's behavior is data even when the data says, “Ma'am, please go back to the drawing board.” 😂

Observe. Listen. Understand. Adapt. Support. Empower.

Then try again. 💙

“Okay, but what’s the function?”

Baby...I need you to keep going. 😂

Because “escape” might tell us something...but that ain't the whole clinical story.
What do we actually know?
What don't we know yet?
What else could be contributing?
What is the learner trying to communicate or accomplish?
Whose priority are we addressing?

And if the intervention “works” when the BCBA is standing there...does it actually work? 👀

THAT is the kind of conversation we're having in ABActual™: The Clinical Journey...From Intake to Discharge. Over four Saturdays, we're following one mock learner from the moment that referral hits our hands all the way through discharge.

And I'm not giving you the whole story on Day 1. Nope. 😂

You're going to get information the way we get it in actual clinical practice...a little at a time.

We assess. We ask questions. We make a clinical decision. New information shows up...now what?
Do we keep going? Modify? Reassess? Fade? And eventually...are we actually ready to discharge?

Clinical thinking isn't memorizing what to do when you see “escape.”

It's being able to say...
“Based on what I know RIGHT NOW, here's what I'm thinking...and here's why.”

And being willing to change your mind when the clinical picture changes.

So this workshop is B.Y.O.B = Bring Your Own Brain

Bring the brain that asks questions.

Bring the brain that's willing to say, “Wait...what else could be going on here?”

Bring the brain that's willing to challenge what we've always done just because...well...that's what we've always done.

And most importantly...
Bring the brain that's willing to think clinically, not just textbook-ly. 😂 (y'all know what I mean!)

We'll talk. We'll disagree. We'll Stop & Think.

You'll work through our mock learner's case in your own participant workbook.

And yes, there is a little between-session work...but I said little. We grown. We got jobs and lives. 😂

4 Saturdays. One learner. The entire clinical journey. 6 CEUs.

Founding Cohort: $77

If you've been wanting CEUs that feel a little less like “here are 47 slides, see y'all in two hours” and a little more like actual clinical conversation...

Come sit with us. We got a case to work. 🩷

Well...I guess we're doing this....

Y'all have been asking for mentorship, supervision, clinical thinking, independent practice conversations, and "Can we just sit down and talk through this stuff?"

I wanted to create something that gives us that opportunity without creating an ongoing mentorship commitment.

So...meet my very first small-group CEU experience:

ABActual™ The Clinical Journey: From Intake to Discharge

This isn't going to be your typical "read the slides and answer the poll" CEU.

Over four Saturdays in October, we'll follow one mock learner's journey, from intake all the way through discharge, and talk about the real clinical decisions that happen in between.

1. Interactive presentations
2. Guided discussion
3. 6 CEUs total
4. Optional ABActual™ After Hours after each session if you want to stay, ask questions, and just talk a little ABA gossip....

Whether you're a future behavior analyst, newly certified, or you've been doing this for years and just enjoy learning with other clinicians (or let's be honest...you need CEUs 😂), I'd love to have you there.

This is my Founding Cohort, so you'll also be helping shape future ABActual™ experiences.

Registration is officially open!

Now excuse me while I go finish building the presentations. 😆
