Today we are exploring the fascinating world of behavioural analysis, where we will dive deep into the science behind human behavior, insights into effective interventions, and the importance of this field in shaping positive outcomes for children and adults. On this episode of the Baby Steps Nutrition Podcast, Argavan chats with Aaron Rudy, a Board-Certified Behaviour Analyst. Aaron obtained his MS in Behavioral Psychology from Pepperdine University. Aaron works with children with autism and other behavior challenges using Applied Behavior Analysis, an evidence-based data-driven individualized therapy to teach skills and strategies to both child and parents based on the psychological philosophy of behaviorism. Argavan and Aaron discuss common challenging behaviours in children with autism and how the family is impacted, how ABA-based interventions compare with other treatment approaches to help children with autism, aha moments along the way and much more!
