Nourishing little mouths. Growing little voices.

Feeding feels hard. Communication feels out of reach. You don't have to figure out the next step alone.

Infant feeding, pediatric feeding, lactation, and speech support — in-home across the Knoxville area, and virtually when that's the right fit. You don't need a diagnosis or the right words to reach out.

As a pediatric speech-language pathologist and a Certified Lactation Counselor, infant feeding gets both lactation support and a clinical look at how your baby sucks, coordinates, and swallows — the same expertise that guides feeding and communication as your child grows.

If any of this sounds familiar, you’re in the right place

Most families reach out because something about feeding or communication feels harder than it should. You don’t need a diagnosis or the right words to start.

  • Bottle or breastfeeding difficulties
  • Anxiety about starting solids
  • Stressful toddler mealtimes
  • Difficulty chewing or swallowing
  • Limited food intake
  • Unclear speech or communication concerns

Start with what you’re noticing

You don’t need to know which service your child needs. Tell me what’s happening, and I’ll recommend the most appropriate place to start.

Parent coaching vs. direct therapy

Parent coaching

  • Focuses on guiding and supporting the parent
  • Best for everyday feeding and mealtime concerns when direct clinical treatment may not be needed
  • Available nationwide through the Well Fed Method
  • Not eligible for superbills or insurance reimbursement

Clinical therapy

  • Includes direct evaluation and treatment of the child
  • Appropriate for feeding skill, swallowing, speech, language, or medically complex concerns
  • Available in-home in Knoxville or by teletherapy where I am licensed (TN, VA, MD)
  • Superbills may be available for eligible clinical services

The Well Said Well Fed Difference

Traditional therapy often centers on what happens during a scheduled appointment. My approach brings support into your child’s everyday environment and keeps you actively involved, because progress needs to carry into real meals, routines, and conversations.

Traditional appointment-based care

  • Care takes place in a clinic or therapy room.
  • Parents may receive recommendations after the session.
  • Support primarily occurs during scheduled appointments.
  • Strategies then need to be carried over at home.
  • Scheduling and frequency may be influenced by the setting.

Care with Well Said Well Fed

  • Personalized support in your child’s familiar environment
  • Parents and caregivers as active participants
  • Strategies practiced within real meals, play, and routines
  • Recommendations adapted to your family
  • Ongoing guidance within select packages

Whether we’re working on feeding or communication, you’ll understand what we’re doing, why it matters, and how to support your child between visits.
