Autism and Feeding: Helping Picky and Selective Eaters


Listen Later

In this episode, Hannah sits down with Jordan, an Occupational Therapist at Little Light House, to explore how Autism impacts feeding. Jordan breaks down the difference between typical picky eating, problem feeding, and sensory-based feeding needs, and why the distinction matters. She also covers safe foods, mealtime strategies, and how to create a low-pressure environment around food. If mealtimes feel stressful in your home, this episode will help you understand what's really going on and where to turn for support.
