Ep. 61: Against a Behavioral Approach with Greg Santucci
Nov 23, 2021 Season 1 Episode 61
Robyn Gobbel

Greg Santucci is an Occupational Therapist who has taken Facebook by storm with his bold, playful, and useful posts about working with kids- especially kids with regulation challenges.  He currently works both in a hospital clinic and in the schools.  Greg also has a consultation and training business where he gets to travel the country, training schools and occupational clinics in his ground-making model of working with kids through the lens of regulation and the neuroscience of behavior (sound familiar?!).

Greg has years of experience as a school-based occupational therapist and advocating for the respectful treatment of students.

Greg is vocal voice in the movement away from behavioral therapy, especially ABA.  He is emphatically opposed to behavioral methodology and practices while at the same time, he never criticized the professionals who have worked from a behavioral model.

We know more now and we have to be brave enough to move past what we thought we knew.  Greg Santucci


You will love this inspiring and fun episode with Greg Santucci while we explore a hard topic- shifting away from a behavioral approach- with compassion and joy.
