Join us for a clinical discussion designed specifically for BCBA trainees, focused on Pathological Demand Avoidance (PDA).
In this session, we’ll review and discuss key insights from “Pathological Demand Avoidance in Children and Adolescents: A Systematic Review” (Kildahl et al.), and explore how this research applies to real-world clinical decision-making.
Together, we’ll cover:
- How PDA is currently understood in the literature
- Considerations for assessment and case conceptualization
- Practical strategies for supporting individuals with high demand avoidance profiles
- How to balance clinical structure with flexibility in care
This session is built to support your growth as a developing clinician, offering space to ask questions, think critically, and connect research to practice in a supportive, collaborative environment.
RSVP today — we look forward to seeing you there!
