You showed up week after week. You rearranged your schedule. You packed the snacks, sat in the waiting room, and hoped this would be the session that changed things.
You trusted the process. You followed the advice.
You practiced what you could at home… and still, your child is struggling.
That doesn’t mean you did anything wrong and it doesn’t mean your child isn’t capable. Sometimes it simply means the approach didn’t match what your child truly needs.
For many children, short sessions once a week aren’t enough to undo fear, build trust with food, and create new patterns that stick. Real progress often needs more time, more repetition, more connection, and a parent who isn’t watching from the sidelines, but learning alongside their child.
An intensive feeding model with parent involvement allows:
– skills to be practiced in real moments
– anxiety to be supported, not rushed
– parents to gain confidence instead of guesswork
– progress to continue outside the therapy room
So if you’ve done everything “right” and your child is still stuck… this may not be the end of the road.
It may be the moment you choose a model that wraps around your child and you.
Because feeding challenges don’t live in a 30-minute session. They live at your kitchen table. And that’s where real change should begin. 💚
