Feeding Therapy

Problem feeding behaviors we address

• Refusal to eat or drink
• Difficulty chewing or swallowing food

• Limited variety of food
• Poor weight gain
• Requiring extended time to finish meals
• Difficulty transitioning from bottle to purees and solids
• Weak oral motor skills related to feeding

What an evaluation looks like

After a thorough review of the medical and feeding history you provide, a speech-language pathologist or occupational therapist sits down with you and your child to observe a meal or snack and further assess oral motor skills, seating, and behavior during mealtime. If your child qualifies, our office manager will help you schedule regular visits.
