This practical course will help clinicians identify children who are anxious eaters and outline sensitive and systematic ways to support these worried eaters and their families in achieving mealtime peace and expanding diets. The approach is based on the responsive feeding principles of the "Get Permission Approach" that begins with child success and tiptoes towards change with small positive and compassionate steps.
