Parent coaching is not therapy.

I don’t provide direct treatment to your child. Instead, I teach you practical, evidence-based strategies to reduce meltdowns, improve communication, and create smoother routines at home.

Because when parents have the right tools, meaningful change can happen in everyday life.

Why Transitions Feel So Hard for Some Kids with Autism & I/DD — And How Priming Can Help

For many children with autism and intellectual/developmental disabilities (I/DD), unexpected changes can feel overwhelming. A sudden transition, new activity, or change in routine may create anxiety because they thrive on predictability and knowing what to expect.

That’s where priming can help.

Priming means preparing your child before a transition, activity, or change happens. Instead of surprising them in the moment, you give them information ahead of time so their brain has time to process what’s coming.

Examples of priming:
• “In 5 minutes, we’re cleaning up and getting ready for dinner.”
• Showing a visual schedule before starting the day
• Talking through what will happen before going somewhere new
• Practicing or previewing difficult situations ahead of time

When children know what to expect, they often feel safer, calmer, and more successful during transitions.

Small preparation can make a big difference.

If every part of your day with your child feels like a battle… you’re not alone.

So many parents I work with come in feeling exhausted from the constant pushback—
getting dressed, transitions, even simple requests.

But here’s what I want you to know:
This usually isn’t defiance.

It’s a combination of unclear expectations, difficult transitions, and a lack of control.

And when you shift those pieces, things start to feel different—fast.

You don’t need to overhaul your parenting.
You just need the right tools.

ABA Term of the Week: Functional Communication Training (FCT)

Many challenging behaviors happen for one simple reason: your child is trying to communicate a need but doesn’t yet have an easier way to express it.

Functional Communication Training (FCT) is an ABA strategy that teaches children what to say or do instead of using behaviors like crying, hitting, or throwing items.

Instead of focusing on stopping the behavior first, FCT focuses on teaching a replacement communication skill that works better and faster for the child.

Example at Home:

If a child throws toys when they want help: Teach the child to say or signal “Help please.”

Prompt them to use that communication when they begin to struggle, before challenging behaviors occur. Immediately provide help when they ask appropriately.

Over time, your child learns that asking for help works better than throwing toys.

More Everyday Examples:

• Instead of whining for a snack → teach “Snack please.”
• Instead of screaming when a toy is taken → teach “My turn.”
• Instead of hitting to escape a task → teach “Break please.”

Why this works:

When communication is easier and more effective, challenging behaviors naturally decrease.

Small communication skills can create big changes in daily routines for families.

✨ Tip for parents: When your child uses the new communication skill—even with help—respond right away. Quick reinforcement helps the skill stick!

Unpopular opinion: Your child should not be in ABA therapy for years and still exhibiting the same challenging behaviors or inconsistent progress.

So, why do we see it so often?

This could be due to a number of factors, but most often it is due to a lack of generalization in the home environment, stemming from inconsistent caregiver guidance.

Caregiver guidance— aka parent training— is just as important as direct therapy. It teaches caregivers the skills they need to help their learner be successful in the home and community settings. When caregiver guidance is not a priority in the treatment process, progress may become stagnant and regression may occur.

At Boundless Behavior Consulting, participation in caregiver guidance is a requirement for treatment. Your BCBA will meet with you weekly or biweekly to help teach you the tools you and your child need for lasting success.

📝ABA Term of the Week: Reinforcement

In Applied Behavior Analysis (ABA), reinforcement means increasing a behavior by following it with something meaningful to your child.

For example:
Your child asks for a toy using words → You give them the toy.

Your child cleans up their toys → You give praise or a high five.

Your child finishes homework → They earn extra playtime.

Because the outcome is helpful, the behavior is more likely to happen again in the future.

💡 Reinforcement isn’t bribing. It is provided contingent on a behavior. It’s a research-based strategy used in Applied Behavior Analysis (ABA) to teach new skills, build independence, and encourage positive behaviors.

Have questions about how reinforcement works at home? Send us an email, call, or text — we’d love to learn how we can help! 🩷
