Feeding Therapy
The ability to eat is one of our most fundamental yet complex needs. If a child is having difficulty eating or is refusing to eat, it can impact all other areas of their life.
Our Feeding Clinic staff includes speech-language pathologists and occupational therapists that are passionate about determining the best treatment options to improve feeding and swallowing habits, as well as quality of life.
We often collaborate with physicians, dietitians, and other specialists to provide the most well-rounded treatment plan.

Fussy and/or Picky Eaters with overactive gag
