The Verbal Behavior Approach:

How to Teach Children with Autism and Related Disorders

 Mary Lynch Barbera, BCBA with Tracey Rasmussun

Forward by Mark L. Sundberg, PhD.,BCBA    

  “This book is an important one. Parents will be delighted with its easy and practical approach. It fills a void that currently exists for families trying to figure out how to do a VB approach. Furthermore, it explains a great deal about how ABA approaches behavior and teaching. The sections on rapport building, the importance of motivation, errorless teaching, and reinforcement are well-written, accurate, and perfectly suited to the needs of parents and professionals new to this approach. Her words of advice to families are spoken from the heart and very wise.”

 -Mary Jane Weiss, Journal of Early and Intensive Behavior Intervention

Using principles of applied behavioural analysis, together with a robust and structured program, children with autism can be helped to make gains in language, communication, academics, behaviour, self help and social skills.

Behavioural research has consistently supported early and intensive intervention. The brain plasticity of the young child provides a critical window of opportunity to habilitate toward a normal child developmental trajectory.

This presentation will cover:

  • what is autism and the spectrum
  • what the research says about early intervention
  • ABA/PECS/VB/PRT/DI/PT
  • how to start

This presentation is for parents, carers, teachers, classroom assistants.
