Description

In this episode, Michelle and Erin are back together to discuss one of Erin’s favorite topics, “Neurodiversity Affirming Feeding Therapy.” The term “Neurodiversity Affirming” has grown in frequency of usage; as such, it should. However, many of us went through graduate school before this phrase became part of our everyday lexicon. We probably did not have explicit instruction on how to embrace and implement it in therapy sessions, especially regarding feeding therapy. Evidence-based practice evolves with the addition of new projects becoming published, listening and learning from the lived experiences of our patients, clients, and students, and our clinical extrapolation of different interprofessional education activities. So, grow your PFD EBP with this episode and learn why embracing neurodiversity-affirming care into feeding therapy is invaluable, strategies to implement this successfully, and resources to continue your growth journey.
