A "token" typically refers to a physical object, such as a coin, that can be exchanged for something else of value. This suggests that Ellen has received a tangible item that holds some sort of value, rather than just praise or completion of a therapy program. Additionally, the fact that Ellen is described as a "mentally retarded adult" may indicate that she has some sort of disability that affects her cognition and behavior, making it less likely that she would receive praise or complete a therapy program in the same way as someone without a disability.
