Guest: Meg Simione, Ph.D., CCC-SLP - In this episode, Michelle is joined by Meg Simione, Ph.D., CCC-SLP, a clinician-scientist focusing on infant and child feeding and growth and implementing innovations to improve care delivery. One of the hardest aspects of the “Pediatric Feeding Disorder” diagnosis to grasp can be the “psychosocial" domain. Why? As clinicians, we were trained to focus on the “feeding skill” domain, typically addressing the caregiver’s psychosocial impact falls by the wayside. But, it is critical that we understand this core component of PFD. Dr. Meg shares some of the most common psychosocial consequences, what clinicians can do to overcome these impacts, and why it is critical for clinicians to collaborate with researchers to expedite current research into daily practice for the little ones we have been called to serve.
