In this episode, Liat sits down with Sean Inderbitzen, author of Autism in Polyvagal Terms, to break down the science behind neuroception, how the nervous system shapes behavior, and what the Polyvagal Theory means for understanding autism. They also dive into the heated world of ABA criticism—how to handle the haters, what the field gets right (and wrong), and how we can do better. This conversation will make you think differently about autism, behavior, and the future of ABA. Don’t miss it!
