Feeding Therapy
Feeding challenges can be stressful—for both kids and parents. Our feeding therapy program helps children expand their food range, improve oral-motor skills, and feel more comfortable at mealtimes. Whether your child struggles with food textures, limited variety, or mealtime behavior, we use a combination of sensory, oral-motor, and behavioral techniques to support happy, healthy eating habits.
Feeding Therapy sessions may be beneficial if your child:
Is a selective eater
Limited or restricted food intake (less than 20 foods)
Eats different meals than your family
Difficulty with a variety of food textures
Gagging while eating
Frequent mealtime battles or meltdowns
Aversion to whole food groups
Is underweight or overweight
Safe and Sound Protocol: A Pathway to Better Regulation
The Safe and Sound Protocol (SSP) is a cutting-edge neuroacoustic sound therapy designed to improve neural regulation. This innovative approach can help children and families address sensory processing challenges, anxiety, and emotional dysregulation.
By listening to specially designed auditory stimuli, the SSP can help:
Improve sensory processing: Enhance the brain's ability to filter and process sensory information
Reduce anxiety and stress: Promote relaxation and calm
Enhance social skills: Improve communication and social interaction
Improve focus and attention: Enhance cognitive function and academic performance
If you or your child struggles with sensory sensitivities, anxiety, or difficulty regulating emotions, the Safe and Sound Protocol may be a valuable tool providing by our Child and Family Counselors to support your journey towards better mental and emotional well-being.
Parent-Child Interaction Therapy (PCIT)
PCIT is an evidence-based therapy that helps strengthen the bond between parents and children while improving behavior and emotional regulation. It’s designed for children ages 2–7 and involves real-time coaching for parents to build skills that create lasting positive change.
Benefits of PCIT include:
Improved Behavior – Reduces tantrums, defiance, and disruptive actions.
Stronger Parent-Child Bond – Enhances trust, communication, and emotional closeness.
Better Emotional Regulation – Helps children manage big feelings in healthy ways.
Long-Lasting Results – Skills learned in PCIT often continue to benefit families for years.
Why it Works:
During PCIT sessions, our therapists coach parents through live feedback while they interact with their child. This hands-on approach ensures that strategies are practiced in the moment and can be applied at home right away.
If you’d like to learn more or see if PCIT is a good fit for your family, contact us today!
Infant Massage
Infant massage is a gentle, calming practice that uses nurturing touch to help babies relax and strengthen the bond between baby and caregiver. With soft, rhythmic strokes (often using natural oils or lotion), it can support better sleep, digestion, and emotional connection.
Our 4-week parent-infant program is for babies birth–12 months, and also welcomes expecting parents who want to feel confident and connected before baby arrives.
Infant Massage may be beneficial if your baby:
Has trouble settling or sleeping
Experiences gas, constipation, or digestive discomfort
Seems fussy or overstimulated
Has difficulty calming after transitions (car rides, feeds, bedtime)
Needs support with relaxation and regulation
Would benefit from increased bonding and connection
