Long Island Feeding Therapy Services
Are you looking for the best feeding therapy that Long Island has to offer?
At Foodology Feeding Therapy in Long Island NY, we stand apart from the typical insurance-based, larger clinics. We specialize exclusively in serving children and teens with severe and fearful feeding issues—diving deep to uncover the root causes of picky eating, PFD, ARFID, and sensory feeding challenges. Whether in person at our Central Long Island location or virtually from anywhere in the world.
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.

June 30, 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, 2023Olivia is very friendly and extremely engaging with my daughter. My daughter has a fear for doctors and nurses in general or even family members sometimes but the from the moment Olivia walk in I don’t think there’s any time where she cried or didn’t want to do her therapy. My daughter has progressed a lot in the little time span and that’s all thanks to the hard-work of Olivia.. She has a way to make feeding interesting and she takes her time with my daughter… I can’t recommend her enough…

December 13, 2023Before feeding therapy, my son was over one years old and still on purées. With Krystal’s help, my son is now THRIVING and eating anything and everything! It’s amazing. At his 2 year doctor appointment even the pediatrician was impressed with how far he has come with eating. Krystal is highly knowledgeable and explains everything she does. Without her help I don’t know where my son would be. Thank you, thank you, thank you! ❤️

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?
Yes, we do offer in-home feeding therapy! Our ability to travel depends on your location and therapist availability, but we regularly see children in their homes throughout Long Island, including Suffolk and Nassau County. Call us to learn more about availability and travel fees for your area.
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.
What age do you start therapy for kids on Long Island?
We work with children from infancy through school-age. Feeding challenges can show up early — and it’s never too soon to start getting help. In fact, the sooner you get help, the quicker and easier it is to remediate the issues.
