Food 4 Thought Therapy

Food 4 Thought Therapy Welcome to Food for Thought Therapy! We specialize in treatment for pediatric feeding, Avoidant/Restrictive Food Intake Disorder, and speech and language needs.

In addition, Kelly provides coaching for therapists and parents, and is trained in hypnosis. This page is a forum to help you dissect your picky eaters "bad habits", offer new techniques to trial during meals, and determine when skilled intervention is appropriate for your specific needs. My goal is to avoid dinner disasters and alleviate the stress in getting the appropriate nutrition for your loved ones. About Picky Eaters Online:
- I am a trained Speech and Language Pathologist with specialized training in behavioral feeding therapy.
- I will be posting general comments I have heard frequently from clients, and some suggestions to try with your little one.
- I will facilitate this group to initiate conversations about meal time woes, personal experiences and helpful hints.
- When "tips" may not be enough, and a feeding consultation is warranted by a board certified professional, I will be here to guide you each step of the way

Things that drive me crazy as a feeding therapist!

Gagging at mealtimes? We can help!
Listen until the end to hear all of the most important tips and tricks

Gagging is scary for parents -but it’s usually normal.
Here is what I actually do when a kid gags:
1. Pause and breathe. Stay calm. Kids will feed off of your calmness and are looking to you to make sure all is well
2. Narrate. Don’t pressure
3. Shrink the step-make the task easier so continuing is no biggie
4. Model eating calmly
5. Celebrate every tiny win

Save this for your next stressful meal!

Chocking or gagging on foods? I wish parents knew so many truths I go over in my feeding therapy sessions to help make REAL progress.

It isn’t magic! I struggle too. But I know the tools to use to get my son and my patients to enjoy eating and add new foods.
Sharing tips and tricks with you that other feeding therapists won’t tell you!

Looking for a new way to support your child’s feeding difficulties? We have a brand new program starting early next year! This is for you if your child:
1. Has a hard time tasting, trying, or adding new foods to their diet
2. Has significant refusals or struggles and mealtime
3. Has tried other feeding therapies without success
4. Needs support that includes family education
5. Has a hard time eating at school or on vacation

A disrespectful comment at the table isn’t just “bad behavior.” It’s communication wrapped in frustration.

Your response sets the tone.

Stay calm. Hold the boundary. Protect the connection.

When you guide instead of react, your child learns that emotions are welcome, disrespect isn’t, and the table is still a safe place to try, learn, and eat at their own pace.

What’s the hardest part of mealtime for you right now?

Picky isn’t always picky, sometimes it’s fear, being overwhelmed, or sensory overload.

The moment you shift from “they’re being dramatic” to “they’re struggling,” everything changes.

Your empathy becomes the bridge that helps them feel safe with food again.
What’s one thing you can say differently to your child this week?
