Can school counselors talk to kids about anything? For instance, Jackson is having a really hard time eating. He doesn’t like anything, when he takes a bite bigger than a nibble he spits it out, gags, then doesn’t want to eat the rest of the day. I can’t get anything out of him other than he’s scared of choking... but I don’t know why. Can they help?

What we used to think was choking was actually gaging. I’m pretty sure he hasn’t actually choked before
@j.andtaysmama he may have an overactive gag reflex and speech therapy could help desensitize him. It may be textural issues with certain foods also.
@jenx, yes he definitely doesn’t like certain textures. Hubbys side of the family all have that issue
They can, I remember my counselor was very helpful they always made sure I was okay etc
I think a speech therapy eval would be helpful to pinpoint the issue. Has he actually choked in the past?
