The Personalized Game Plan

That's exactly what we do together.

You've done sticker charts. You've tried the one-bite rule. You've seen multiple providers who gave you conflicting advice and you still leave appointments wondering... what now?

Here's what I want you to know: you're not missing something. You've just never had someone look at your child as a whole. The gut, the nervous system, the sensory processing, the environment, the family dynamic. All at once.

"We've tried everything. We've seen everyone. And I still don't understand why my child won't eat."

sound familiar?

The Personalized Game Plan is a single, focused 90-minute session where I take a full-picture look at your child's picky eating and give you a clear, customized roadmap for what to do next.

Not a generic handout. Not a one-size-fits-all protocol. A plan built entirely around your child, your family, and your reality.


What this is

Before we meet, you'll fill out a detailed intake form (pertinent history, sensory patterns, feeding concerns) so I arrive fully prepared and we can hit the ground running.

B — Balanced Health
Your child's overall health sets the foundation for everything. Sleep, immune function, nutrient absorption... when the body is not regulated, eating is the first thing that suffers.

L — Learned Oral Skills
Eating is actually a skill, and not every child develops it the same way. We look at how your child chews, swallows, and manages different textures to understand what their mouth is telling us.

O — Optimal Microbiome
The gut and the brain are in constant conversation, and what lives in your child's gut directly affects their appetite, food preferences, and even their willingness to try new things. This is one of the most overlooked pieces of the picky eating puzzle.

O — Open Exploration
This is about the environment your family creates so your child feels safe being curious around food at their own pace. No pressure, no performance. Just the conditions where natural exploration can actually happen.

M — Mealtime Boundaries
The structure, rhythm, and emotional tone of your mealtimes matter more than most people realize. When boundaries feel safe and consistent, kids relax. And relaxed kids eat better.

I look at picky eating through every lens that actually matters:

 meeting:

Clarity and confidence and a path forward that finally makes sense

-Rivka k

Before working with Lena, our son refused almost everything outside of his safe foods and meals were incredibly stressful.
Lena helped us support his whole body and slowly expand foods in ways that felt safe for him. Today he eats foods we never imagined, and our family dynamic around meals has completely changed.

Our entire household feels calmer and healthier.

Working with Lena helped us understand how our son’s gut health and overall wellness were connected to his eating challenges. Her holistic approach helped us support his body while slowly expanding the foods he was comfortable eating.

“The changes we’ve seen in my son have been remarkable.”

the reviews

For more than a decade I worked as a speech-language pathologist supporting children with feeding challenges. I spent thousands of hours in therapy rooms with kids and families, and over time I noticed something that changed everything.

The biggest shifts never happened in my sessions. They happened at home. At the table. In the quiet, everyday moments where a parent finally felt calm and confident instead of frustrated and lost.
That is when I shifted my focus entirely to parents.

I grew up in Poland, moved to the US at fifteen, and have spent my life learning that the most important things rarely have a simple, one-size answer. That curiosity is exactly what I bring to every family I work with. I look at the whole child: the gut, the nervous system, the sensory world, the environment, the family dynamic. All of it.

Today I help families understand what their child's body is really asking for, so eating gets easier naturally. Not by forcing. Not by tricking. By understanding.

When we support the whole child, something remarkable happens. They don't just eat more. They thrive.

frequently asked questions

We spend 90 minutes looking at your child through a whole-child lens. Before we meet, you fill out a thorough intake form covering medical history, sensory patterns, feeding concerns, and daily routines. That way I arrive fully prepared and we can get straight to the real work. During our time together we go through every piece of the picture using the BLOOM Framework, connect the dots, and build a personalized plan around your child specifically. No generic advice, no one-size-fits-all protocols.

After we meet I send you a written summary of your child's Personalized Game Plan. You do not need to furiously take notes during our session. Just show up, be present, ask all your questions, and I will make sure everything is captured and sent to you so you can reference it whenever you need it.

It is for you. Your child never needs to attend. This is a parent session where we look at what is going on with your child and figure out exactly how you can support them at home. The real change happens at the table, in your home, in the everyday moments. That is where your role is most powerful.

Yes, and honestly this session was built for you. The families who need this most are often the ones who have tried the most things and still feel stuck. Whether your child eats five foods or fifteen, whether mealtimes are tense or completely shut down, we start exactly where you are. That is the whole point.

It's for parents. Your child never needs to attend a session. You'll learn how to support their body, environment, and relationship with food at home  and that's where the real change happens.

You can always come back to your written Game Plan summary, it is designed to be something you reference again and again. And if something comes up that it does not answer, just email me at lena@lenalivinsky.com. I am happy to answer any lingering questions. And if you feel like you need more time together, you are always welcome to book another session.

Every child is different, and I will never promise you a timeline that is not honest. What I can tell you is that most families leave the session feeling relief just from finally understanding what is going on. When you have clarity and a real plan, things start to shift. Some families notice changes at the very next meal. Others take a few weeks to settle in. Progress is not always linear, but you will not be guessing anymore.

If after our session you feel ready to go deeper, you can continue working together through The Picky Eating Reset, my signature 3-month 1:1 coaching program. It is where we take everything we uncovered in your Game Plan and build on it with ongoing, personalized support. And the best part? The $397 you invested in this session goes directly toward the cost of the program. You are not starting over. You are just taking the next step.

I can’t speak highly enough about the exceptional care and expertise provided by Lena. From the consultations, she provided me with a comprehensive plan to support not only feeding and nutrition but also overall wellness.

One of the most remarkable aspects of Lena's approach is how she integrates various elements to support gut health and feeding.
