What to Expect:

Behavior Analysts are accused of ignoring the feelings of the individuals whom they serve. This can be in the form of blocking self-soothing behaviors such as stereotypy, or simply pushing for working through emotional experiences. This is further evidenced by the fact that discussions of feelings are all but absent from professional literature from behavior analysts. Although seldom discussed, feelings are important to behavior analysts. In addition, behavior analysts are not experts in emotional mental health, so are most likely to refer to a specialist. We <3 emotions.
