Testimonials
This seminar was awesome! It filled the gaps from my professional training to what I need in my current job. The information was logical and systematic. I can’t wait to try out everything I’ve learned.
I have attended a wide variety of continuing education courses in my 13 years of clinical practice including at state and national conventions. Dr. Clawson and Ms. Elliott’s course was unquestionably the only course that teaches a therapist rationale and specific techniques to help a wide variety of children with challenging feeding problems. There is no better investment of your money and time than this course. You can leave totally prepared to use proven evidence-based methods!
This course was great! It focused on the medical, behavioral, social and emotional aspects that affect children with feeding programs. They covered a wide area of problems and provided simple, cost effective solutions to treat these children. They gave us useful tools that we can take with us. This class brought the entire perspective of feeding together.
I am a speech pathologist and mother of a child with a feeding tube. The course gave me practical and immediately useable techniques to use with my daughter and clients. The course also provides instruction regarding where to begin and goals to set for your clients with the most challenging feeding issues. A must for anyone involved with feeding assessment and intervention.
