Feeding Face Off
Feeding Face Off presents a practical, compassionate, and behavior-analytic approach to addressing food selectivity in children without relying on escape extinction. Dr. Holly Grover shares a shaping-based model grounded in functional assessment and family-centered practices. Practitioners will learn how to assess feeding concerns, build individualized hierarchies, and implement effective interventions that are developmentally appropriate and culturally sensitive. The session emphasizes assent, caregiver collaboration, and generalization across settings, providing clinicians with the tools to create meaningful, ethical, and sustainable change in mealtime behavior.
