Henry had a particularly challenging session with his new client, Mia. After the session, he reaches out to his BCBA to request guidance. He sends her a secure message on their HIPAA-compliant communication platform. Choose the most appropriate way for Henry to communicate these concerns.

Mia engaged in 27 aggressions and 12 SIBs today, which was significantly higher than I observed during training. I followed the BIP, but I am unsure whether I’m doing things correctly. Could you overlap my next session to provide guidance?

Since he used a secure communication platform, any of the above ways of communicating his concerns would be appropriate
