In this episode, Angela speaks with Claire Samuels about entering the ABA field believing it was the gold standard for Autistic children — and what happened when that belief began to unravel.
Claire, I so appreciate your clear communication. You have taken some interesting turns in your life and career path. Thank you for sharing your experiences with our community.
Angela, I would be extremely interested in a future workshop with LDC that explores how we can more authentically communicate as autistic people and how we get into trouble when we attempt to mimic NT styles of communication. Perhaps Claire could be a valuable speaker on this topic?

Next month (April's) workshop is about friendships and NT expectations about them.
