Earlier this summer I had the chance to chat with Dr. Kelsey Ruppel, who is a Senior Consultant and the Director of Operations at FTF Behavioral Consulting. After I stopped getting tongue-tied in the introduction, we were able to cover a wide variety of topics, including:

  • How she got into ABA.
  • Pro-tips for remote consultation.
  • A quick review of the Preschool Life Skills curriculum.
  • Her research on addressing emerging problem behaviors, i.e., the development of the BALANCE program.
  • More pro-tips: How to speed up the Skills-Based Treatment Process.
  • What Kelsey plans to talk about at the upcoming Stone Soup Conference.
  • And what is meant by the term, "Gray Reinforcement."

In short, this interview has tons of practical tips for everyday BCBA's, and I hope you enjoy the conversation as much as I did.

Here are some links to what we discussed:
