For more than 18 years, the Aspen Center has been a trusted provider of pediatric services in the triangle area. We offer specialized feeding therapy for children from birth to adolescence, focusing on improving their ability to eat and swallow safely and effectively. Our clinic proudly serves families in Apex, NC, as well as the greater Cary area, including Morrisville, RTP (Research Triangle Park), and New Hill.
Feeding therapy is crucial for children who face challenges with feeding and swallowing. These difficulties can be caused by various factors, including medical conditions, developmental delays, and sensory processing issues. At the Aspen Center, our team of specialized feeding and swallowing therapists works closely with families to create personalized therapy plans that address each child’s unique needs.
We understand that feeding issues are often interconnected with other areas of development. Our pediatric speech-language pathologists (SLPs) play a key role in our feeding therapy program, helping children build oral motor skills necessary for both feeding and speech. These SLPs evaluate and treat a wide range of communication challenges, ensuring that children are developing age-appropriate verbal and non-verbal communication skills alongside their feeding abilities.
Our approach to feeding therapy is comprehensive, addressing both the physical and behavioral aspects of feeding. Whether it’s helping a child become comfortable with different textures or teaching them how to swallow safely, our therapists work step by step with each family to meet their goals. Additionally, we offer teletherapy services to ensure that families in and around Apex, NC, and the greater Cary area can access the support they need, wherever they are.
At Aspen Center, we are dedicated to providing effective feeding therapy that empowers children to overcome challenges and build essential skills for life. Our personalized approach ensures that every child receives the care they deserve, giving them the tools to thrive. Learn more by browsing our website: https://aspencenter.net.
