Summary
The investigators are trying to determine if delivery a feeding intervention program using videoconferencing technology is feasible.
Detailed description
The investigators hope to recruit 10 participants who have a diagnosis of autism spectrum disorder and food selectivity. A Multidisciplinary feeding assessment will be conducted and factors which contribute to the participant's feeding challenges will be identified. Treatment goals will be identified using the Canadian Occupational Performance Measure (COPM). Intervention geared to address the goals identified by parents will be delivered by the clinician(s) via videoconferencing. Participants will participate in up to 12 weekly 1hr visits over the study period.
