Children We Serve
Many things can impact a child’s feeding. Feeding challenges can result from a medical diagnosis, developmental delay, trauma, lack of access, or other sometimes unknown factors.
Our clinic supports children with many different diagnoses, including:
Autism (ASD), cleft palate, sensory processing disorder (SPD), avoidant restrictive food intake disorder (ARFID), Down syndrome, developmental delay, prematurity, reflux, failure to thrive (FTT), genetic conditions, muscle differences, and children who are having feeding difficulties without any other diagnosis.
Feeding challenges can include many different challenges and skills. Our clinic supports children with many different feeding difficulties, including:
Difficulty keeping food in the mouth, difficulty biting and chewing, difficulty with breast/bottle feeding, g-tube weaning, gagging/choking/coughing during meals, selective eating or eating very few foods, drinking only liquids, not participating in mealtime routines like sitting at the table, difficulty with self-feeding, and growth or nutrition concerns.
If you have specific questions about how our clinic can help your child, please contact us.
We do require medical clearance from your child’s physician before scheduling an appointment. Our staff will assist you in getting medical clearance.
