About this listen

In this powerful deep dive into ARFID (Avoidant/Restrictive Food Intake Disorder), we explore the pivotal role of occupational therapy in treating this complex eating disorder. Join us as we sit down with Jaclyn Macchione, MOT, OTR/L, Renfrew's seasoned occupational therapist and leader in the development of our ARFID programming. Jaclyn gives us a sneak peek into her work, including how her highly individualized interventions, like exposure therapy and oral motor work, can help patients make remarkable progress in and out of treatment. We’ll also unpack the signs and symptoms, diagnostic criteria, and the overlap with other restrictive eating disorders. This episode offers a mix of education, hope, and inspiration for anyone navigating ARFID—whether personally or professionally. Stay tuned for Part 2 next week, where we’ll discuss how families can support their loved ones at home.
