ARFID & “Picky Eating” Exposure Groups at Namaste Nourished

Curious Bites Club (Children/Adolescent Group)
Expanding Eats (Adults Group)

Join our dietitian-led ARFID & Picky Eating Exposure Group, a supportive and structured in-person program designed to help individuals expand their food variety in a compassionate environment. Meeting twice a week at Namaste Nourished (Fort Lauderdale location) for one hour, this group provides guided exposure experiences tailored to each participant’s needs and goals, fostering confidence and flexibility with food.

Through hands-on activities, mindful eating practices, and expert nutritional support, we help participants gradually increase comfort with new and previously challenging foods. Our approach is rooted in client values and evidence-based strategies, ensuring a judgment-free space where growth and progress with the relationship with food are made possible.

This group is ideal for individuals struggling with Avoidant/Restrictive Food Intake Disorder (ARFID) or extreme picky eating, whether due to sensory sensitivities, fear-based avoidance, or limited nutritional variety.

Program Length: 4 weeks (closed group)

Program Cost: $425 (insurance is not accepted for the group)

Adults Group: Mondays/Wednesdays | 5pm
