We are so excited to welcome Leanne Page back on the podcast! Leanne Page is a mom, a BCBA, and the founder of Parenting with ABA. Through Parenting with ABA, Leanne leverages her extensive experience to teach parents the science of behavior. She also teaches behavior analysts how to do compassionate caregiver support.
Leanne Page On Emotional Regulation for Parents
Here, Leanne shares her strategies for working with parents and her thoughts on emotional regulation. We discuss the risks of not acknowledging parents in our work as BCBAs, common mistakes we make, and tips for supporting parents better. Leanne also shares the benefits of incorporating mindfulness techniques with parents, the importance of self-compassion, and advice for newly minted BCBAs.
In the episode we talk a lot about the importance of checking in on the mental health of the parents you’re working with. And it’s not always in our wheelhouse to teach them mindfulness techniques or breathwork. That’s why we’re so excited to share Leanne’s new journal, The Calm & Connected Journal. The book walks moms through increasing self-compassion in just a few minutes each day. This is a great resource to add to your ABA arsenal. Grab your copy here!
