Today on episode 44, we bring on Dimitri Makridis who has been in the field for 11 years and board certified for the past 5 years. He has a ton of experience in a variety of populations and diagnosis. When sh*t hits the fan, you call Dimitri. Along with Ryan O from the Daily BA they started The Controversial Exchange Podcast, which is just an all around badass podcast. When we found out how much Dimitri loves to talk about all things functional analysis, we had to bring him on so our listeners would be able to really understand just how important FA’s truly are and how to not be afraid of them! We dive deep into Greg Hanley’s Practical Functional Assessment and synthesized contingencies versus isolated contingiences. We chat about manipulating the MO and how there may be more than just the four functions of behavior we are taught. Sound scary? Don’t worry, we break it down so you will understand it, as always. This is an episode that could really help you increase your understanding and competency on FA’s so when you get get out of your house #imaginethat you can be a stronger practitioner!  Love you. Mean it.
