Food Therapy Services
While we proudly support families around the world through virtual coaching and consultation, we also offer in-person feeding therapy at our welcoming facility in central Long Island, NY. Prefer care at home? We can also travel to work with children and families directly in their homes when appropriate.
What makes us different?
We take a holistic, whole-child approach to feeding. That means we look beyond behavior to understand the sensory, oral-motor, nutritional, and mindset foundations that shape how your child eats — and how they feel about food.
If you’re wondering whether feeding therapy is the right next step, you’re not alone.
Take our 2-minute quiz to find out if your child’s eating patterns are just picky… or something more.

My 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 ...

November 4, 2023Safe and Sound Protocol Review: I have two daughters and each of them individually benefited from the Safe and Sound Protocol. My ten year old is chronically anxious about everything in her life and struggles with executive dysfunction and getting needed tasks done. She also has a very hard time with her emotions. She was wanting to try herself to see if it would help her- within only a week of starting , she noticed a difference . She verbally was telling me how much less anxious she was- we saw how she was starting to better control her emotions and not always resort to crying immediately- fast forward a few weeks later and we have seen such a difference in her. She actually puts herself out there now, even auditioning for a role at school which she never would have done in the past. We are able to have many conversations now without it ending in crying or shutting down. I’m incredibly happy we gave this program a chance and would really recommend it to anyone who has a child who really is struggling with any type of emotional . Dysregulation. My other daughter is younger (6 years old) and has a language processing delay as well as ADHD . She has some anxiety too, but we wanted to try this program to help promote more balance and focus in her life. She first struggled to sit even 5 minutes calmly to listen - by end of week two she was asking to sit all on her own 15-20 minutes . I was blown away- never in the 6 years we have had her was she ever able to sit calmly for that long of a period of time. We noticed her reading was improving in school- and her therapy sessions- because she was able to focus better on the material! She went through some testing recently and was getting 100 percent on all the material being taught in Kindergarten. I was really blown away for both of my kids- and really would recommend anyone on the fence to give it a try!

May 14, 2024Before 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! ❤️

October 24, 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.

December 15, 2023My 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!

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.
