Understanding Whole-Body Apraxia

In this episode of The Telepathy Tapes: Now What?, Betsy Hicks and Libby Ingram sit down with occupational therapist and autism researcher Dr. Dana Johnson to explore the concept of whole-body apraxia and why so many assumptions about autism may be based on motor challenges rather than intellectual limitations.
Together they discuss the difference between speech apraxia and whole-body apraxia, why traditional assessments often miss the mark, the role of co-regulation, sensory processing, interoception, emotional regulation, and why behaviors are so often misunderstood. Dr. Johnson also explains how motor coaching can help individuals access what they already know and why understanding the body is essential to truly presuming competence.
