LAFeedingandSpeech

LA Feeding and Speech, also identified as LA Pediatric Feeding and Speech Therapy, Inc., provides speech, feeding, and orofacial myofunctional therapy for infants, children, and adults. The practice is led by Dr. Anna Gross, a licensed speech-language pathologist with ASHA certification and a Certified Lactation Counselor credential from the Academy of Lactation Policy and Practice. She offers evaluations and treatment for infant and toddler oral-motor and feeding difficulties, as well as speech-sound and orofacial myofunctional concerns in children and adults.

Services address challenges such as difficulty chewing or swallowing, gagging, choking, selective eating, and speech difficulties including a lisp. The practice also highlights signs associated with orofacial myofunctional disorders, including open-mouth posture, daytime mouth breathing, snoring, oral habits such as thumb-sucking, and jaw clenching or grinding. Related concerns may include orthodontic issues, recurring ear or tonsil problems, headaches, neck tension, and sleep difficulties. In addition to therapy services, LA Feeding and Speech offers lectures and events and provides information about its services through its website.
