Feeding Therapy

Pediatric feeding therapy addresses difficulties with eating and drinking that stem from sensory, motor, or structural causes. Feeding challenges can present at any age and may include food refusal, limited food repertoire, difficulty transitioning textures, prolonged mealtimes, or failure to thrive.

Robyn has extensive post-graduate training in pediatric feeding and approaches each patient using a sensory-motor framework combined with oral placement techniques. She does not use food aversion or punishment-based methods, instead focusing on building positive associations with eating while addressing the underlying motor or sensory root causes.

Feeding therapy at this practice is appropriate for:

• Infants with bottle or breast feeding difficulties
• Children transitioning from tube feeding to oral feeding
• Children with limited food acceptance or extreme pickiness
• Individuals with low oral tone affecting chewing and swallowing
• Patients with Down syndrome, ASD, or other diagnoses impacting feeding
