Event Information

Course Description

This course is designed to provide therapists across disciplines with positive behavioral strategies that enhance feeding therapy and promote transdisciplinary models of care. We will review using parent education about feeding disorders and strategies prior to beginning therapy as a way to promote parent engagement and generalization to the home setting. We will discuss how basic understanding of functions of behavior and principles of reinforcement directly impact how we select interventions. We will review several common feeding strategies and learn how to teach them to parents, and evaluate their effectiveness. A case study of this process will be presented. The goal is for all therapists to share common ground in our approach to feeding, to learn from each other, and provide parents with the best education possible to make lasting changes at home.

Learning Outcomes

Participants will be able to: 

  • Identify strategies used to assist parents with learning concepts about treatment of feeding difficulties.
  • Integrate behavioral principles to therapies used across disciplines.
  • Apply generalization from therapeutic to home settings.
