TESTIMONIALS

From Parents

After Nathan* started working with you, we quickly became impressed with your dedication and abilities.  You had specific goals, methods to achieve these goals, and kept us apprised along the way.  Anytime we had questions you either gave us an answer or researched the topic. We all so appreciate your efforts, and the results are clear.

Matthew* was always excited to come to see you-- I think he views you as a friend more than a teacher since you made the visits so much fun; it never seemed like work.

Owen* and I want to thank you for everything you have done for us!  It was so much more than giving Owen* his voice and helping him with his speech. You brought back happiness to our family too.  You taught us how to bring Hebrew back and how to believe in Owen* again.  

Kamik* has progressed with you from a youngish two year old with a handful of words and SO many missing sounds to a four year old with nearly age appropriate speech! As parents it's wonderful to know that Kamik’s speech difficulties will not plague him in school and in life-- he can communicate with family, teachers, and friends.  And it's wonderful (most of the time!) to know what he's thinking.

You were such a role model for how to handle Isaiah*, for how to help him and for your unbelievable patience in working with him.  I marveled at your skill and patience and took great effort to emulate it.  Thank you.  It is an amazing gift you gave me.

We appreciate that when you look and listen to Miguel*, you see all of who he is, not just a kid with speech issues. You have reminded me, during times of my own worries for Miguel*, that he is a smart and sweet boy.  You have set the tone for Miguel* to feel good about himself and we are incredibly grateful for this gift.

I am not sure I can ever put into words how grateful we are for your presence in Brandon's* life.  You taught him how to speak so others could understand him and how to interact with the world. Thank you for everything you have given him and for sharing your talent with him.  The relationship you and Brandon* built has had such an impact on him. He trusts you like he trusts very few people. I would not be surprised if he ends up being a teacher or even a speech therapist-- and he would be a good one with a teacher like you.

Your great ideas, amazing attitude, and constant preparedness have all made a tremendous impact on Julie's* growth and learning.

Thank you so much for all your work with Ben*-- it has certainly paid off!  Who would have thought that the boy who didn't open his mouth 2.5 years ago would now impress people with his language skills. We are so grateful.  

You really have a gift for making the therapy fun and creative so that Maya* truly enjoyed the hard work she was actually doing.
