Remote Fieldwork Supervision for BCBA(R) Trainees prepares BCBAs for supervising certification candidates, providing structure, scope, and sequence for supervision, as well as tactical recommendations for providing independent fieldwork supervision in a distance context. The book helps to resolve common challenges in supervision arrangements, such as maintaining professional behavior and encouraging practitioner self-care.
The book follows the Behavior Analyst Certification Board's Fifth Edition Task List, and then goes beyond the required 8-hour supervision training to teach important clinical skills, such as ACT, RFT, executive function skills, OBM, and curriculum-based measures.
Dr. Lisa Britton's current interests revolve around the delivery of quality supervision for BCBA/BCaBA candidates and ethics within the field of behavior analysis. She obtained her B.S. from the University of North Dakota. She then completed her graduate training at the University of Nevada, Reno under the direction of Dr. James Carr. Upon graduating, she worked at Spectrum Center Schools and Programs for over 15 years where she focused on supporting the Senior Behavior Analysts who provided behavioral supports to students with Special Education needs in their educational environment. In 2015 Dr. Britton launched Britton Behavioral Consulting, a company designed to provide fieldwork supervision for people working to become a BCBA/BCaBA. Her primary focus is on the delivery of remote supervision for those who are unable to obtain quality supervision in their immediate community. Concurrently, Dr. Britton is an adjunct faculty for Touro University and The Chicago School of Professional Psychology. She teaches a variety of courses for master's students seeking to meet the requirements to sit for the BCBA exam as well as Ph.D. students through The Chicago School. With 17 years as a BCBA, nine publications, and two decades in the field, Dr. Britton has a clear understanding of the skills necessary to be a successful behavior analyst.
