Do you offer feeding therapy for infants and babies with dysphagia?

Yes! We offer specialized, collaborative feeding therapy using both Occupational Therapy (OT) and Speech Therapy (SLP) approaches for infants and babies experiencing feeding and swallowing difficulties (dysphagia).

Our team works together to treat the core oral-motor movements required for safe swallowing, address sensory and positioning needs, and help children comfortably transition off thickened liquids.

Please note: For the safety of your child, if there is a known or active aspiration risk, a recent instrumental swallow study from a hospital may be requested prior to starting treatment.

Do you diagnose dyslexia?

We don't diagnose dyslexia — that's typically done by a psychologist. However, we absolutely can treat children with dyslexia.
