A Special Offer
For Students and Recent Graduates
Hey there!
Are you completing your training in occupational therapy (OT), speech-language pathology (SLP), or as a registered dietitian (RDN)?
Are you eager to work in pediatric feeding, but unsure where to start?
This is for you.
Pediatric feeding therapy is a rewarding specialty—but it can be demanding and complex
Masters programs and board exams establish the foundation for therapists entering their fields.
But they don’t prepare us to be confident clinicians who can walk into a home kitchen and effectively engage with parents and children.
The Get Permission Institute is the most experienced learning community for professionals treating pediatric feeding disorder.
Our community was founded by Marsha Dunn Klein—whose remarkable career laid the foundations for trust-based, responsive feeding & mealtime peace approaches used by feeding therapists worldwide. (You might have read her textbook in school!)
Co-Founders Karen Dilfer & Stephanie Cohen have built on Marsha’s legacy, mentoring younger therapists and leading evidence-based innovation in the SLP and OT communities.
You can do this.
We can help.
We love what we do. And we’re committed to finding and supporting new clinicians who are curious and ready to explore feeding.
Our goal is to build your confidence, develop your clinical skills, and equip you to thrive as a knowledgeable feeding therapist.
We’ll help you focus all you’ve learned into practical treatment strategies you can use immediately in sessions—or on your resume for the future.
We've combined our top introductory course with a 1-year professional's membership
( exactly what we would have wanted as we finished school! ).
Course: Feeding in Infancy & Toddlerhood: Learning Through Opportunity
New to pediatric feeding therapy? This foundational course gives therapists evidence-based frameworks and practical tools to assess and support feeding development stages from infancy through three years old. Packed with practical case studies and video, the comprehensive training is led by GPI co-founders Stephanie Cohen, M.A., CCC-SLP, CLC and Karen Dilfer, OTR/L with their highly experienced and personable approach.
Expect an instant boost in real-world confidence, clinical strategies to implement immediately with clients, and a resume-ready certificate upon completion.
