In Episode 155, Ben chats with Dr. Yaniz Padilla Dalmau. She has a specialty in the assessment and treatment of challenging behavior using an applied behavior analytic (ABA) approach. Yaniz has a passion for improving access to behavior analytic services for underserved populations through novel models such as telehealth and through consideration of cultural variables within assessment and treatment. One of her life’s missions has been to bridge the service gap in the area of ABA for individuals with intellectual and developmental disabilities in Puerto Rico.
 






Yaniz has received training at the University of Iowa and the Kennedy Krieger Institute/Johns Hopkins University’s Neurobehavioral Outpatient Unit. She has practiced at the Virginia Institute of Autism’s outpatient behavioral services and Seattle Children’s Hospital Biobehavioral Program and Pediatric Feeding Program.
