Feeding Therapy
Committed to Supporting the Whole Family
Feeding Therapy helps children learn how to eat better. Usually an OT or an SLP provide treatment with support from nutritionists and medical doctors as needed. It is important to know that feeding is a specialty and not all pediatric OTs (or SLPs) have advanced training in this area.
At Kuhl Therapies the feeding philosophy is child-directed with behavioral strategies utilized as needed. Parents are an essential part of the treatment process and there is a focus on addressing the underlying cause of the problem in a positive way.
This positive and accepting approach may take longer to see results, but there is research to support that the effects are longer lasting.
