Nourishing Connection: Trauma-Informed and Play-Based Feeding Therapy

  • Traditional goal writing often emphasizes compliance or “fixing” perceived deficits. This course challenges that framework by equipping clinicians to write goals that are not only functional, but also affirming of a child’s identity and lived experience.

    Erin guides participants in blending trauma-informed practice with neurodiversity-affirming principles, offering practical examples and a framework you can adapt to your own caseload.

    You’ll walk away with:

    • A process for writing goals that reflect collaboration, dignity, and respect

    • Language that supports regulation, autonomy, and authentic connection

    • Confidence to advocate for goals that serve both children and families—not just systems

    Clinicians will leave with a renewed vision of what goals can be: tools for empowerment and growth, rather than measures of compliance.

Praise for Nourishing Connection (The Course)

  • Muna says:

    "This course has been transformative in my educational journey as a graduate speech-language pathology student. Erin offers her knowledge and expertise to guide you in understanding feeding through various aspects of a child’s profile—sensory, praxis, medical history, caregiver engagement, prior mealtime experiences, and the impact of trauma. Erin’s unique ability to blend research, theory, and clinical practice into engaging presentations and discussions, created such a rich learning experience for me. Erin fosters a warm and collaborative environment that encourages problem-solving and so much collaboration! Her approach, grounded in the principles of connection, comfort, and curiosity, has transformed my understanding of feeding therapy. Erin guides you to understand feeding therapy holistically, along with the importance of connecting and collaborating with caregivers. I highly recommend this course to clinicians and SLP graduate students. Erin’s expertise offers valuable guidance on understanding a child’s individual profile and how this understanding is critical in feeding therapy. I will always be grateful for the knowledge I have gained with this course."

  • Makenzi says:

    “This course is everything you'd hope for and more in a feeding course! Erin is a wealth of knowledge, compassion, and collaboration. The course is built on the foundation that connection and comfort are at the root of feeding intervention and Erin gives us permission to build that client-therapist connection before even presenting food during a feeding session. This is the permission that I needed to become an effective and trusted therapist for my clients. Erin provides deep insight into a variety of feeding challenges, theories that support child development, and supports participants in collaborating and critically thinking through different etiologies that may be impacting a child's feeding. This holistic course is unlike any other feeding course currently available and has been a game changer for my practice.”

  • Maddy Lee says:

    “I can't speak highly enough about Erin's Nourishing Connection course. From the moment I enrolled, it was clear that this was going to be a transformative experience. Erin was truly exceptional—passionate, welcoming, and incredibly knowledgeable. She created an environment where every question was valued and every participant felt supported, free from any judgment.Gaining Erin as a mentor and a friend is an invaluable experience. What really set this course apart was its unique approach to learning. It wasn't just about absorbing information; it was designed to prompt critical thinking and engage us deeply with the material. The course provided a robust framework for clinical decision-making that has already proven invaluable in my practice. It’s rare to find a course that so effectively combines theoretical insight with practical application, and I’m incredibly grateful for the experience. This course has not only enhanced my professional skills but also rekindled my enthusiasm for continued learning in speech pathology.”
