I am a speech-language pathologist for the Chicago Public Schools. The parents of a student that I…read moretreat for a language disorder in school were seeking additional outside services and asked me for a recommendation. I referred them to Sonya at Lakeshore Speech. They have reported being very happy with the therapy sessions thus far. She is very professional, explains what she is doing and gives them advice on how they can work with their son at home to support what she is doing in therapy. I, too, am very happy because she communicates regularly with me, so we are able to coordinate our therapy for the maximum benefit of the student. He is making wonderful progress. Sonya has informed me that she also works with adults, and judging by her professionalism and background, I am confident that she is simply a talented therapist all around. I can and will continue to recommend her to anyone who is looking for a speech-language pathologist.

I worked with Sofia Magnuson for about five months to improve my professional English communication…read moreskills, and I highly recommend her. Not only did my English improve, but I also gained much more confidence speaking in professional settings. Colleagues at work even noticed the improvement in my communication. Sofia used a variety of techniques tailored to my specific needs and goals. She was always supportive and willing to answer questions, even when I brought in exercises and practice from other speech therapy apps. I appreciated how flexible and personalized her approach was rather than following a rigid curriculum. If you're looking to improve your English communication skills and build confidence, Sofia is an excellent speech therapist and coach.

My 2.5yr old son was experiencing severe language delays and a lot of frustration. His entire vocab…read morewas maybe 10 clear words. He had started speech therapy through another agency, however he was not progressing or enjoying the sessions. We switched to this agency and the difference was like night and day! When Kate first contacted us I was incredibly impressed by her professionalism and attention to detail (I'm a clinical social worker - so my standards for service delivery and therapeutic outcomes are very high. And hey, this therapy is for my kid. And he rocks). Our first session with Kate was fantastic. My son warmed to her straight away, and from then on would stand by the window before each session waiting for her to turn up. And open and close the door for her like the gentleman he is. During the first week, we spent time setting goals and talking about how we would be able to assess his development. I also appreciated that Kate told me from the beginning, that she would be transitioning us over to a new therapist, Angie, in a few months. The transition was seamless. Both Kate and Angie have worked so hard with my son and genuinely care about him. They celebrate his successes and cheer him on as loudly as we do. Both have a freakishly good memory and know all his favorite toys, games and activities. Even his favorite color (orange...weird choice, but ok). Angie has even visited his school and met with his teacher to provide extra education for her. So cool. More than anything, I have appreciated how family-centered their practice is. Both therapists have provided us with a wealth of education about ways we can work with him at home, recommendations for schooling and invaluable support and advice. Last year, we had a grunting and screaming kid who was shy and retreating further into his shell. Now we have a little dude that is confident, can string a sentence together and has a wide vocab ("sour cream" and "mouthwash" - anyone?). The greatest joy is to see him so happy and understood by others! I cannot recommend this agency more highly!

The progress my now 4 year old has made is truly amazing. Kristin knows how to reach the child. She has a special bond with my son. Her knowledge is like no other Speech Pathologist I have met. The pricing pre session is reasonably. She works with you if insurance isn't an option. I highly recommend Kristin Miller.
