Stephanie Forseth

B.Kin, MSc. OT — Pediatric Feeding Specialist & Creator of The Regulated Table™

The best feeding outcomes start earlier — with parents who understand what their child’s body needs at the table.

Stephanie is a Registered Occupational Therapist, pediatric feeding specialist, and the founder of Intuitive Therapy Solutions. She works with parents of children ages 0–7 — from first foods through the picky toddler years — on feeding development, sensory processing, and mealtime stress. Virtual services across eligible Canadian provinces.

Her practice is built on a regulation-first framework: safety in the body before skill development, co-regulation before compliance, and parents as active partners in every session. This isn't a philosophy she adopted — it's the clinical conclusion of over a decade of pattern recognition across hundreds of families. That same pattern recognition is why her work now starts earlier: most feeding struggles are built slowly, and they are easiest to shift before they set.

In addition to her clinical work, Stephanie has delivered professional in-services and parent workshops across Alberta — including a staff in-service for the Siksika Board of Education, parent education for an Airdrie community parent group, and talks for the Bump Birth & Beyond community. As the creator of The Regulated Table™, she is building it into education for families and clinicians.

Regulation first. Always.

One

Safety before skill

Eating is a state-dependent skill. Medical and nutritional safety come first, then a body ready to learn. Skill-building works best when the body is available for it.

Two

Understand before acting

Sensory processing, oral motor skills, routines, environment, and the parent-child dynamic all shape mealtimes. Naming what’s driving the pattern tells us where to start.

Three

Parents are the intervention

Change that only happens in a session doesn't stick. Co-regulation, parent coaching, and real-time strategy transfer is how lasting mealtime transformation occurs.
