Please remember that any "therapy" for an autistic child, even when it's not labeled as ABA (it could be anything - occupational therapy, play therapy, art therapy, music therapy, speech and language therapy)
Any therapy can be doing ABA.
Always ask to sit in on the session.

ABA has been seeping into nearly everything.
Any therapist that works with autistic kids could be doing ABA therapy and compliance. Absolutely any.
I wish it wasn't true but it is. Always sit in on the therapy sessions & don't trust "it'll be more effective without you there."

If you are open about being against ABA, planned ignoring, & rewards for compliance,
They may not do ABA while you are there, but once you are out of sight they may use that.
Please be careful. Let your child know it is okay to leave a session & tell them the signs of ABA.
