Feeding Therapy

At Therapeutic Learning Center, we offer feeding and swallowing therapy for children birth to 18 years. Whether your child is having difficulty breastfeeding or bottle feeding, transitioning to solids, refusing certain textures, or expanding their diet, we provide individualized interventions to promote a healthier relationship with food. Our feeding therapy techniques have been effective in treating a wide variety of disorders.

Your child may receive Feeding Therapy from an Occupational Therapist or Speech-Language Pathologist trained in feeding and swallowing.
