Very Knowledgeable
Working in the healthcare insurance field but not directly with a behavior therapist and having so many questions and needing understanding; this book provided that. I have such a better understanding and am better equipped to understand the children and families I may encounter and am better equipped with providing some direction and guidance for the questions I receive.

Great balance between technical depth and compassion!
“Building Better Behaviors: A Step-By-Step Guide For Any Behavioral Challenge” by Megann Phillippi is an insightful and practical resource for anyone navigating the complexities of behavioral management. With her extensive background as a Board Certified Behavior Analyst (BCBA), Phillippi translates the principles of Applied Behavior Analysis (ABA) into an accessible guide for parents, educators, and caregivers.The book is structured to demystify ABA concepts, such as the ABCs of behavior (Antecedent, Behavior, Consequence), and offers actionable strategies tailored to a variety of settings. Chapters like “The Behavioral Puzzle” and “Take Action” provide a toolkit of interventions, from token systems to visual schedules, making the content practical and adaptable. Phillippiâs emphasis on understanding the functions of behaviorâwhether for escape, attention, tangible rewards, or automatic reinforcementâensures a comprehensive approach to creating positive change.What sets this book apart is its balance of technical depth and compassion. Phillippi weaves real-world examples with evidence-based techniques, ensuring that readers not only grasp the theory but also feel empowered to apply it. The inclusion of strategies for emotional regulation, effective communication, and fostering independence makes it a well-rounded manual for improving quality of life for individuals with diverse needs.

Taming Trouble Behaviors
This book is a huge help! I have 3 kids, all very different. This book has helped me understand their tricky behaviors and actually do something about them. It explains things in a clear way, and it’s got step-by-step instructions that are easy to follow. I’ve only been using a few of the strategies in the book so far, and I’m already seeing positive changes. If you’re a parent struggling with your child’s behavior, I’d definitely recommend checking this out.

My type of book

Practical for Behavioral Problems
What I appreciated most about this book is how the author wants you to understand your childâs behavior instead of just reacting to it. The techniques are practical and doable, though it will take some effort on your part, as the parent (surprise, surprise). That being said, proper communication will make the job so much easier, and there are some great suggestions within this book.Overall, if youâre looking for realistic, actionable ideas to improve your childâs behavior (and maybe your own patience), this is worth picking up. Itâs approachable and avoids being overwhelming, which is exactly what busy parents need.

Not what I expected!
I thought I was buying something else. I kept reading because of the insight into encouraging positive behaviors and techniques you can use to do that. While it is directed at relationship with children, you can translate many of the same principles to adult relationships as well.
