Feeding Therapy

Those needing help with:

• Picky Eating: Helping children or adults expand their diet and try new foods.

• Sensory Sensitivities: Managing aversions to food textures, smells, or tastes.

• Swallowing Difficulties: Addressing issues like choking, gagging, or coughing while eating.

• Oral Motor Delays: Strengthening muscles for chewing and swallowing.

• Feeding Disorders: Assisting with medical conditions that impact eating (e.g., reflux, tube feeding transitions).

• Behavioral Challenges: Reducing mealtime anxiety, tantrums, or refusals.

• Developmental Delays: Supporting children with autism, Down syndrome, or other conditions.

• Growth and Nutrition: Helping individuals meet nutritional needs and maintain healthy weight.

Feeding therapy addresses a variety of challenges related to eating, swallowing, and food aversions.

We aim to help individuals develop healthy eating habits, overcome sensory aversions, and manage medical challenges related to eating.

The length of time that a child spends in therapy is dependent on his/her individual needs and the goals that have been established collaboratively between your family and your child’s therapist. The length of time is also dependent on follow-through and carry-over of targeted goals at home. A strong home component is essential in the success of therapy.
