Meet Kristen

Kristen is a wife, mom of three, Speech-Language Pathologist, and Certified Lactation Support Provider with a passion for helping babies and children thrive through feeding. Her work focuses on newborn, infant, and pediatric feeding and swallowing.

Born and raised in Saskatchewan, Canada, Kristen earned her Master’s degree in Speech-Language Pathology from Northeastern State University in Oklahoma in 2012. She brings extensive experience supporting children with complex communication and feeding challenges and is a certified SOS-trained feeding therapist.

Since completing her certification in the Sequential Oral Sensory (SOS) Approach to Feeding, Kristen has supported a wide range of children and families through feeding challenges such as sensory sensitivities, extreme picky eating, and feeding resistance. Her approach is grounded in empathy, curiosity, and evidence-based practice, creating a positive, encouraging environment where children can build confidence and joyful relationships with food.

Kristen’s commitment to continued learning has led her to pursue advanced post-graduate training in pediatric feeding disorders, oral motor therapy, and Tethered Oral Tissues. She remains dedicated to staying current with research and best practices to ensure the highest quality of care for every family she supports.

Kristen is passionate about empowering families with the knowledge, tools, and confidence to reach their feeding goals and to find joy in feeding once again.
