Discover what’s possible when someone fosters motivation by encouraging autonomy. 

Today’s guest is Katerina Cizkova. Katerina is a psychologist and a previous Clinical Director at ABA Centrum, an autism center in Prague, Czech Republic. 

In this conversation, we discuss:

  • The types of services available for individuals with autism in the Czech Republic
  • The potential harm of implementing interventions that are not evidence-based
  • Some of the ethical considerations to review when designing programs
  • How Katerina became involved in the field of ABA
  • Why ABA is sometimes misunderstood by parents and professionals
  • How she views the changes to the BACB’s international credentialing
  • ABA Centrum's transition to online services and how they keep parents engaged from a distance 
  • Here is a link to view the documentary Katerina mentions about autism in the Czech Republic: Children of the Full Moon.

    This conversation with Katerina Cizkova was originally released on June 11, 2020.

    Since this recording, Katerina co-founded a therapy center for children with neurodevelopmental disorders in her community. Two years later, she decided to work in a different sphere, but she still collaborates with the therapists occasionally on a supervision level.
