His mother, Heidi O’Brien, reports that Rocco’s eating problems began after weaning, when he had difficulty eating different dishes and avoided certain types of food.
She remembers how difficult it was to take her son to a restaurant, because no matter how much she tried to present new food options, the child was unable to eat it.
Tare sufferers face difficulties in trying new meals, often limiting themselves to consuming the same types of food, textures, flavors and colors.
The disorder can result in significant nutritional deficiencies. Therefore, concerned about Rocco's health, his parents consulted a nutritionist, who recommended a supplement with high nutritional value. However, previous attempts to resolve the problem have proven unsuccessful.
It was only when Heidi researched her son's disorder that she discovered psychologist David Kilmurry, specializing in cognitive-behavioral hypnotherapy, used in the treatment of Tare, anxiety, insomnia and other problems psychological.

Furthermore, the specialist also thanks the support and work with Rocco's family and highlights that his patient's autism made his hypnosis work even more rewarding.
This story demonstrates how innovative therapeutic approaches, such as cognitive-behavioral hypnotherapy, can be highly effective in overcoming mental health challenges, even in complex cases such as Rocco.
