2 So What is BA? Behavioral Activation relies on environmental reinforcement as a mediator for mental health. Problems in people's lives and their reactions to them create loss of positive rewards in their environment. C. Neely 2019: Slide 2 of 30
3 BA Addresses Negative Reinforcement Negative Reinforcement maintains behaviors in depression, anxiety, and trauma. Clinical goal: Replace negative reinforcement contingencies with positive reinforcement contingencies. C. Neely 2019: Slide 3 of 30
4 Autism, Trauma, and Avoidance Autism communication styles and patterns of behavior increase escape behavior. PTSD results in avoidance of stimuli related to the trauma. Depression exhaustion increases avoidance behaviors. C. Neely 2019: Slide 4 of 30
5 BA Addresses All of These Contingencies Increasing access to positive reinforcement addresses avoidance, escape, negative reinforcement for: Client and family Exhaustion Traumatic stimuli Autism communication and patterns of behavior differences C. Neely 2019: Slide 5 of 30
6 Contraindications Lack of safety Recent trauma Self-injurious behavior Aggression Suicidal ideation C. Neely 2019: Slide 6 of 30

8 Clinician Role The clinician's role: Help client identify barriers to goals, and motivation to access rewards, in their environment. Clinician part of team with client, family, and school to get client active. Client s goals central! Clinician = coach, cheerleader, advocate C. Neely 2019: Slide 8 of 30
9 Clinician Role Adults with dx identify clinician ignorance as #1 reason to leave therapy Address personal bias Autism deficit or difference? Are client s interests bad or different? High functioning vs. low functioning Autistic movement, Aspies, neurodiversity C. Neely 2019: Slide 9 of 30

13 Identify Interests/Resolve Barriers: At the Same time! Intense focused interests inherent to Autism diagnosis Use perseveration Video Gaming = ramps for wheelchairs Help families understand intense focus as motivation Allow client to make decisions Network! C. Neely 2019: Slide 13 of 30
14 Expand from Intense Focus See an unusual or intense interest as opportunity! Think outside the box Use community Let clients make decisions but support finding community resources Address traumatic barriers C. Neely 2019: Slide 14 of 30
