I want you to be able to get those answers quickly, because I understand that feeding impacts your quality of life.  

​

I know, because I've been the mom with bleeding nipples, crying and stressed postpartum, desperate for resolution and answers.  I am completely aware of how overwhelming it can feel to deal with feeding issues. 

 

I also value a team approach to care and collaborate with other providers in the community to help families find answers.

FEEDING THERAPY

OCCUPATIONAL THERAPY

Occupational therapists focus on "occupations," or what is important for a person to function well in any aspect of his/her life. For children, this means eating, sleeping, playing....we work on what is impacting FUNCTION.

ABOUT THE THERAPIST

Jeanne Pichoff, LOTR, IBCLC

Jeanne has been a pediatric therapist for 22 years.  She fell in love with working in early intervention as a new graduate, and has worked in various settings including the NICU, hospital, and outpatient clinics.  She is married to her high school sweetheart, Dexter, and has two boys, Blaise and Ilan.  Ilan’s birth changed her life and career, as he was born with tongue and lip ties and she experienced major breastfeeding difficulties.  Jeanne recognized a gap in her training as an occupational therapist serving families with feeding difficulties, in that she had never been taught anything about breastfeeding in OT school.  Fueled by her own experience with breastfeeding struggles and with the understanding that she needed to learn more about lactation to better serve families having feeding difficulties, Jeanne obtained various lactation credentials over a period of years.   She became an IBCLC (international board certified lactation consultant) after many years of study and clinical experience, to compliment her skill base with infant feeding and allow her to offer comprehensive care to breastfeeding families.  Jeanne also provides continuing education to other therapists interested in lactation via the Lactation OT platform, teaching two courses that are taken online by therapist across the country, entitled “Tongue Ties, Breastfeeding, and the Lactation Savvy Therapist” and “Failure to Thrive, Suboptimal Weight Gain, and the Lactation Savvy Therapist.”
