About

Stephanie Forseth

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

Before a child can eat more safely and comfortably, their nervous system needs to feel safe first.

Stephanie is a Registered Occupational Therapist, pediatric feeding specialist, and the founder of Intuitive Therapy Solutions. She works with families of children ages 0–7 navigating feeding challenges, sensory processing differences, and nervous system dysregulation — virtually, across Canada.

She is the creator of The Regulated Table™ Framework, the regulation-first model behind every part of her practice: 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.

Alongside her clinical work, Stephanie speaks to clinical teams, educators, and parent communities. Her talks include two presentations at the Blackfoot Confederacy Conference, a staff in-service for Siksika Board of Education, and sessions for the Bump Birth & Beyond professional community. She also offers clinical case consultation for clinicians working with stuck feeding cases.

Regulation first. Always.

One

Safety before skill

The nervous system must feel safe before it can support feeding. This is not a preference — it is the mechanism. No skill-building approach works when the body is in survival mode.

Two

Understand before intervene

The 5 Feeding Driver Patterns (Regulation, Sensory, Feeding Skill, Rigidity, and Environment) sit alongside medical factors. Identifying the leading driver decides the intervention.

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.
