Food Therapy Services
Feeding struggles are rarely “just picky eating.”
At Foodology Feeding Therapy, we take a whole-child, systems-based approach to feeding. Instead of focusing only on behavior or exposure, we look at how your child’s oral-motor skills, sensory processing, nervous system regulation, nutrition, and mindset interact to shape how they eat — and how eating feels in their body.
Most feeding evaluations look at skills in isolation. This approach looks at the full picture, which is why families often experience clearer answers and more sustainable progress — without pressure, force, or endless trial-and-error.

Unlocking Mealtimes was a true gift to our family. By the time our youngest daughter was diagnosed with celiac disease, she had narrowed her accepted foods down to a bare minimum. I was out of ideas, patience, and time—while she was not growing at all. As a mom, I couldn’t help but feel like I had done something wrong. We had already done in person speech and feeding therapy which didn't work, and didn't feel right. Christine and her program provided the encouragement and tools I needed to break the unhelpful patterns I had fallen into. The mindset portion of the curriculum was, for us, possibly the most important piece. By combining gut-healing strategies with mindset shifts and steady encouragement, our daughter has begun a lifelong healing journey. She is now eating, trying new foods, and finally growing. Her academics are improving because of better nutrition—and she’s even eating foods I never touched as a child!

September 5, 2025For the last 6 months, our family has had the privilege of working with Haley. Our child is a late talker, and very cautious around strangers. Within two weeks, she built a great rapport and has helped our child to make great improvements in communication. She conducts her sessions during school hours, and is very well respected by all of the teachers, who tout her as an invaluable resource. Love love love Haley! Highly recommend her services!

November 28, 2023My son has had services since early September, and I have seen significant improvement in his communication since. He lights up when his teacher Haley arrives and is ready to engage. Every parent wants to see their child excel, and watching them do that right before your eyes is the best feeling in the world. I don’t know what I would do without their help. They have made such an impact on my child’s life. I highly recommend this company if your child has any speech needs!

July 13, 2024My son started services with Haley in June and it has been so wonderful working her! We have seen great improvement in his speech and recognition. He could not be more happy to see her when she walks in! He loves all the toys she brings and its amazing to see him so engaged. I am so grateful that we have Haley working so closely with our son, she has made such an incredible impact on his life in such a short amount of time. I can't recommend Haley and Foodology Feeding enough, you will not be disappointed!

January 15, 2024My son was barely speaking at his second birthday and now that he’s recently turned three he’s come so far working with Olivia. Not only has she helped him with his speech and clarity but she has become one of his favorite people. He asks all the time if Olivia is coming over and whenever we do things he can’t wait to tell her about it. We’ve worked with other speech therapists before with our all of our kids and Olivia has been the best. She makes learning fun and engaging. Plus she’s teaching speech while also being educational and going over colors, seasons, shapes, etc. We would highly recommend her help!

December 12, 2023We've been working with my son’s speech therapist, Olivia, for several months now, and we can't express enough gratitude for her unwavering dedication and professionalism. Dealing with our lively little guy, who's bursting with energy and personality, can be a handful. However, Olivia's patience is truly superhuman, turning potential chaos into a collaborative adventure that makes each session feel like a playdate. What sets Olivia apart is her commitment to going beyond the routine. She doesn't just follow a set plan; she adapts and evolves based on our kid's ever-changing needs. It's like having a therapist who customizes each session to fit our little one's unique personality and progress. One of Olivia's incredible talents is her knack for uncovering hidden gems that truly resonate with our boy. She comes to our home armed with a massive bag of educational toys, a modern-day Mary Poppins. Each session feels like a magical unveiling as she selects just the right tool to capture our son's interest and fuel his language development.

Her professionalism and passion for what she does paired with her warm personality and beautiful outlook on life is the reason you wont regret choosing her to guide you on your journey. We're all blessed to have such a shining light in our lives that is Christine.

November 4, 2023Thank you for the Reki Master Healing. Even though it was distant, it was so powerful. Most people would not believe what happened. I had a occipital migraine. That’s what I call it where I can’t see through the spectrum of light after Christine sent Reiki to me for five minutes, the light and the cracked illusions that I was experiencing began to fade away. She completed the healing, and there was only a little band of distortion left after resting for a couple of minutes only my vision was clear, and the migraine had totally disappeared. Thank you so much Christine you are an awesome healer. -Lorry Salluzzi Sensei , Reiki Máster

FAQs
The most frequently asked questions we hear
Do You Take Insurance?
We Fill the Gap That Insurance-Based Clinics Often Miss
Unlike most insurance-based therapy providers, we don’t just check a box or follow a 6-session template.
We specialize in complex, layered feeding cases — the ones that often get dismissed, delayed, or underserved in traditional systems.
That’s why we’re private-pay only — so we can provide the depth of evaluation, individualized planning, and ongoing support these families truly need.
But we also know cost matters.
We offer tools to help families access out-of-network reimbursement:
A downloadable Insurance Appeal Toolkit with ready-to-use templates and parent guides
Customized superbills that reflect medically necessary services and align with insurer language
Can You Travel To My Home?
We do! It depends on your location, and therapist availability, but we see many kids in home! Call to get availability and pricing for travel.
I have an evaluation from a previous facility, do I still need one?
It depends and is determined on a case by case basis. Okay If the evaluation is over a year old, we would need to re-do the evaluation.
Due to the comprehensive nature of our evaluations, many evaluations are just not detailed enough to give us the information we need.
We will look over the evaluation free of charge and let you know if it can be used to start services.
Can we do it virtually over video chat?
Yes! We can work with you virtually as well as in-person. Please feel free to reach out to us and we’ll be happy to accommodate you.
