title: [An interdisciplinary approach to parent-child therapy with complex and severe feeding difficulties].
abstract: Our interdisciplinary team is based in a teaching hospital department for psychosomatics and therapeutic interventions for mothers and children. This tertiary service provides assessment and treatment of infants, children and their families presenting with complex and severe feeding disorders. We specialise in the care of children with a variety of multiple problems e. g. presenting after premature birth, and their associated relationship problems. The complexity of issues requires intervention at multiple levels in order to address the individual and family needs of the child. Each case represents opportunities and challenges. The team also addresses integrated services provision across the spectrum of services involved as well as attempting to integrate therapeutic approaches across professional boundaries. This is illustrated by a case report and complemented by a literature review.
