Abstract
We report a case with a 7-year-old girl with autism spectrum disorder and anxiety disorder who had severe restrictive eating leading to various medical concerns raised by her pediatrician. Following medical consultation and a descriptive functional assessment, a therapist implemented behavioral intervention consisting of a visual cue, choice, and differential reinforcement of alternative behaviors. The intervention was focused on both in-home meals and telehealth consultation during mealtimes, as the COVID-19 pandemic necessitated moving to remote consultation for continued treatment. The success of this study has long-standing implications for the benefits of positive feeding interventions and telehealth as well as parental training strategies.
