In this episode of In Session, we’re diving into the world of feeding therapy — exploring how sensory, motor, and emotional factors all play a role in a child’s relationship with food.
Join Westside’s feeding specialists — Rebecca Lonkar, MHS, CCC-SLP/COM/L, Mary Smyers-Karaffa, SLPD, MS, CCC-SLP/L, and Kristalyn Turner, MS, CCC-SLP — as they unpack common challenges families face at mealtime, from picky eating and oral aversion to difficulty chewing or swallowing.
