What I’ve seen NOT work:
❌ Forcing exposure to non-preferred foods
❌ Pressuring a child to take bites before they feel ready
❌ Rigid therapy models that don’t consider your child’s unique needs
❌ Treating parents as spectators instead of partners in therapy
What I do instead:
✅ Create a safe & trusting environment
✅ Use play to reduce anxiety and make food exploration fun
✅ Support parents with practical coaching—you’ll leave every session with tools you can use at home
✅ Advocate for necessary medical referrals when underlying issues impact feeding
