Full-Tilt Parenting: Strategies, Insights, and Connection for Parents Raising Neurodivergent Children · TPP 432: A Conversation with Zoe Bisbing About ARFID & Neurodivergence · 4 Mar 2025 podcast

And so I think that's a factor too.

I would say that as a parent, you have to ask the provider that you're interviewing, for example, this question, not what is the best practice, but rather, how do you think about treating ARFID in neurodivergent children?

I think the question will allow the provider to reveal to you whether or not they even know what you're talking about.

Because ARFID, there might be a need and it might be appropriate to work on certain exposures, for example, right?

But the way a provider who is really neurodivergent affirming

is going to sort of think about those exposures and the way to incorporate them is going to be very different than someone who's really just applying a kind of cookie cutter model of like exposure.

And then I'm going to help you learn how to tolerate your distress.

So in some ways, I think that.

the more neurodivergent affirming a provider is, the more, it's not that they're not interested in offering quote evidence-based practices, but they're going to bring their own trauma informed approach into the room, right.

To make sure that we're not going to cause harm by trying to prevent harm, because in some ways that's part of what we're working on, right?

Let me give you an example.

This was like an OT.

I think I was speaking to, he wanted to refer a family to me and I had to tell him it's possible that the kind of treatment I'm going to offer this family is going to sound like it's going to be undoing everything you've been doing with him.

Because I think that that feeding therapy he was in was helping him essentially over time, learn how to eat more foods in a compliance based approach.

Right.

And it was not taking into account an accommodation model at all.

And I think that this child was probably masking more and more and more and dissociating more and more and more in order to please the clinician and the parents, right?

And he was able to do it.

This was like when he was with his providers, but then on his own, he was defaulting to his safe and sane foods, right?
