What You’ll Experience:
This workshop cuts through the noise. Dr. Thakore brings her extensive background in clinical psychology and behavior analysis to answer the questions that keep you up at night:
- What exactly happens in an ABA session? (Beyond the clinical jargon)
- How do you know if your child is responding well to therapy?
- What role can dads specifically play in supporting ABA at home?
- How do you evaluate if a provider is the right fit for your family?
- What are the legitimate criticisms of ABA, and how have practices evolved?
Why This Matters:
Let’s face it—navigating therapy options isn’t just about your child’s development. It’s about your journey as a father, your family dynamics, and finding approaches that align with your values.
This workshop provides a judgment-free zone where your concerns aren’t just heard—they’re addressed with empathy, expertise, and practical guidance you can implement right away.
