Supporting Nourishment, Regulation, and Confidence; One Bite at a Time

At Empowered Heroes Inclusive Therapy, our nutrition coaching is designed to help neurodiverse children, teens, and young adults build a positive relationship with food, without shame, pressure, or rigid rules.

We understand that eating isn't just about nutrients; it's about sensory experiences, routines, emotions, and autonomy. Our approach meets each client where they are and celebrates progress, not perfection.

Navigating texture, taste, temperature, and smell challenges with respect and creativity.

Expanding Food Variety—Gently
Using trust-based approaches to slowly and safely broaden food options without forcing or overwhelming.

Meal Planning & Real-Life Skills
Teaching how to plan simple, balanced meals, grocery shop, prep food, and make choices that support independence.

Body Autonomy & Intuition
Helping clients listen to their hunger, fullness, and preferences—supporting a healthy relationship with food and body.

Energy & Focus Support
Addressing how food impacts attention, regulation, mood, and stamina for daily tasks and school.

Support for Families & Caregivers
Offering guidance, strategies, and reassurance to reduce mealtime stress and create more positive food experiences at home.

At Empowered Heroes Inclusive Therapy, our occupational therapy (OT) services are thoughtfully designed to support neurodivergent children, teens, and young adults as they grow, develop, and navigate the world in their own unique way.

We focus on nervous system regulation, motor development, daily life skills, and sensory integration; always through a lens of respect, empowerment, and neurodiversity-affirming care.
Our OT services support areas such as:
Sensory processing & integration
Helping youth better understand, tolerate, and regulate sensory input in ways that feel safe and empowering.

Emotional regulation & self-awareness
Building strategies for calming, grounding, and expressing needs effectively—using play, movement, and co-regulation.

Motor skills development
Supporting fine and gross motor coordination for everyday tasks like handwriting, dressing, cooking, and play.

Daily living & independence
Practicing real-life skills like organizing, planning, self-care, and transitions, at each youth’s pace.

We are proud to offer the Safe and Sound Protocol, a listening-based nervous system intervention developed by Dr. Stephen Porges. SSP uses specially filtered music to gently calm the nervous system, supporting:
Improved emotional regulation
Increased resilience to stress
Greater social engagement and connection
Better focus and attention
SSP is delivered in a safe, customized way with therapist guidance, and can be a powerful complement to OT for youth who are sensitive, anxious, easily overwhelmed, or seeking deeper regulation tools.
