BCBAs, Occupational Therapists, and Speech Language Pathologists have all seen success with Focused Approach’s program
In my work as a speech therapist who treats swallowing disorders, there have been some patients who also need a behavioral approach to feeding. Dena is very knowledgeable about the impact feeding has on attention, focus, speech development and sensory regulation
From intensive to consultation to mentorship, Dena’s teams are equipped with skills that transcend the clinic setting and carry them forward with independent and lasting success.
I have co-consulted with Dena across two clients with such significant feeding difficulties that they were only able to consume puréed foods. Within weeks, through her comprehensive program, Dena was able to help guide them past their fears toward consuming nutritious solid foods.
Dena introduced me to the world of pediatric feeding disorders and the evidence-based practices used to treat them. In the countless families we worked with together, each program was individualized, thorough, and most importantly effective.
