168 hours in a week…most kids spend an hour a week (sometimes less, sometimes more) with a speech therapist.

We’re not there the other 167 hours! ⏳

Someone’s gotta be trained in what we’re working on in speech therapy.

For some kids, having parents sit in the sessions works great.

For other families, they might sit out because it’s their preference or maybe their child focuses better without their caregivers present.

BUT - in all cases, whether a caregiver is sitting in the session or not, training and keeping families up to date with everything that’s happening in therapy is a critical step in making progress.

I’ve been coaching parents in therapy sessions for over 15 years, and have come up with a very effective framework for parent coaching. 💪🏻

Want to learn my parent coaching framework?

Join me for next week’s episode of our live show where I’ll be breaking it down!

Is ABA Certification legal and recognized in the Philippines?

Currently, ABA certification (such as BCBA, BCaBA, or RBT) is not legally recognized in the Philippines as a professional license. These credentials are international and respected in practice, but they do not carry legal authority under Philippine law.

---

Legal Status in the Philippines

• Republic Act No. 10029 (Philippine Psychology Act of 2009): Only PRC-licensed psychologists and psychometricians are legally authorized to practice psychology. ABA therapy falls under psychological practice when delivered as clinical intervention.
• ABA Certification: International ABA credentials are considered additional qualifications but have no independent legal standing. They cannot substitute for PRC licensure.
• Education Context: Teachers and special educators may apply ABA principles in classrooms, but this is regulated under DepEd/CHED, not ABA certification.

---

Recognition in Practice

• Clinics and Schools: Many private centers advertise ABA services with BCBA-certified staff. While families value these credentials, legally the clinic must also employ PRC-licensed psychologists if ABA is framed as therapy.
• Professional Value: ABA certification signals specialized training and international standards, but it is treated as voluntary professional development, not a license.
• Government Programs: ABA is not yet formally integrated into DOH or DepEd regulations, so certification is recognized informally, not legally.

✅ Bottom line: ABA certification is respected but not legally recognized in the Philippines. It can enhance credibility, but it cannot replace PRC licensure for clinical practice.
