New York Feeding Therapy Services
Are you looking for the best feeding therapy that New York has to offer?
At Foodology Feeding Therapy in New York, we stand apart from the typical insurance-based, larger clinics. We specialize exclusively in serving children with severe and fearful feeding issues—diving deep to uncover the root causes of picky eating, ARFID, and sensory feeding challenges. Our personalized, niche approach means your child gets the focused, compassionate care they truly deserve, whether in person at our Central Long Island, NY location or virtually from anywhere.
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.

Our speech therapist, Haylee, is wonderful. She is knowledgeable, prompt, attentive, stays the entire session, and really makes sure she is connecting. She even thinks about her students when she’s off the clock; she saw a toy we were looking for when she was out shopping and sent us a text and offered to pick it up for us. This above and beyond and considerate nature will ensure that we remain friends long after our speech therapy has ended. Highly recommend!

July 13, 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, 2023For 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!

December 8, 2023We've been working with Cove Foodology doing at home feeding therapy for our Autistic son with severe food aversion for about 7 months or so now, and we could not be more happy about the incredible progress he's made so far! With our first therapist, he started off super anxious and running away from anything edible, and within a short time got comfortable touching and playing games with various food items. I appreciated the always positive, playful and most of all respectful approach. For the last several months we've been working with Haley, who has been so wonderful, always prioritizing rapport and connection before introducing any new challenges, and allowing my son to accept new steps at his own pace. Currently he's gone from not wanting to touch food at all to readily placing food items in his mouth and biting them on request. I give my son a ton of credit for being so brave but I also don't think he'd feel so comfortable about any of it if it weren't for the super supportive, respectful and attuned approach by our wonderful therapist. He's very musical so Haley even took the time to come up with multiple songs to help him understand and accept the next steps. We are so grateful for Cove Foodology and its amazing therapists, who have helped our son overcome severe aversion that we felt helpless about for years. Thank you so much!!!

July 13, 2024Thank 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?
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, NY 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 feeding therapy for kids In New York?
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 start, the quicker and easier they are to resolve!
