Many individuals going through divorce often seek the support of counseling, family therapy, and other wonderful therapies. However, as ABA practitioners we, ourselves, possess many skills that when we use on ourselves can be very effective. We can focus these ABA systems and practices to engage in appropriate target replacement behaviors for those unhealthy post-divorce choices that are often made. Take it from some BCBAs who went through divorce – ABA really does work in this situation! Learning Objectives: Participants will: 1. Learn to identify self-destructive behaviors and red flags 2. Identify ways to fill downtime 3. Engage in self-help skills to build self-esteem and self-worth 4. Engage in appropriate dating behaviors in new relationships
