Specialized Pediatric Feeding Therapy Services

Our Lake Worth clinic supports children with a range of feeding challenges, including picky eating and food refusal, oral motor difficulties with chewing and swallowing, sensory aversions to textures, and infant feeding concerns. With a family-centered approach, our therapists use the Beckman Oral Motor approach, the SOS Feeding Approach, the AEIOU Feeding Approach, child-led play, and sensory and behavioral models to fit each child.

Key Feeding Therapy Specialties

Picky Eating and Food Refusal

When a child eats only a short list of foods, refuses entire food groups, or becomes upset around new foods, play-based feeding therapy can help. Our therapists guide children to explore foods at their own pace and help families tell picky eating apart from ARFID.

Oral Motor and Chewing Skills

Gagging, pocketing food, drooling, or avoiding textures can point to weak or uncoordinated oral motor skills. We strengthen the lips, tongue, cheeks, and jaw so chewing, swallowing, and moving food in the mouth become safer and more comfortable.

Infant and Bottle-to-Solids Feeding

Feeding therapy supports infants and toddlers in the earliest stages, from latching and suck-swallow-breathe coordination to the move from bottle to purees and table foods. Our team guides families through these transitions with gentle, practical support.
