    I took a few voice lessons with Jonathan to improve my speaking and singing voice. I discovered…read morethat my real voice was much lower than what I was used to. To my surprise, many people have complimented my speaking voice since then. I considered the lessons as masterclasses as they were unconventional but extremely effective. Highly recommend!

    Inside Voice and Jonathan's teaching is such a gift in my life and work. I have no musical training…read moreand beyond singing, mostly silently, to my favorite songs, I never previously used my voice to make music. I spend a lot of time avoiding my creative expression, despite knowing I wanted more of it in my life. When I finally stepped out and gave myself to my desire for more expression, I wanted to both learn more about my voice and how it's shaped by my inner life. Inside Voice fit the bill from my first lesson. Jonathan met me and my voice right where it was with care, while clearly sitting in his knowledge and expertise. Over the course of my time at Inside Voice, I have been guided both clearly, with playfulness and almost magical intuition into a fuller understanding and expression of voice. I see now how my voice can reflect and inform who I am and the range of expression I can sing into the world! What a pleasure to experience Jonathan's work and learn how to bring it to more and more of my creative life. I've gained the confidence to go further in my creative expression in my voice practice, but also in my whole life. I am so excited to explore the creative, imaginative and expressive worlds this work continues to open in me. It is such good medicine in my life. Grazie mille Jonathan Stancato and Inside voice!

They took the time to answer all of my questions thoroughly, which gave our family a lot of peace of mind during a stressful time. I especially want to recognize Ricky. He was exceptionally patient, professional, and respectful when speaking with my grandmother, who has mild dementia. He treated her with genuine kindness and dignity, making her feel comfortable and heard. It meant so much to see someone take the time to communicate with her so thoughtfully. Thank you to Ricky and the entire team for the excellent care and compassion you showed our family. We are truly grateful.

    Absolutely do not send your loved one here. My mother came after a surgery and from the moment she…read moreentered they treated her aggressively and spoke to her like she was a child. Our first night there she needed help and they left her unattended for almost an hour. They forced her into a diaper even though her surgery after care said absolutely no diapers. She was constantly uncomfortable and not listened to. I found multiple roaches in every room we set foot into. On top of all of this my mother is deaf and they refused to get her an interpreter. They gave her a white board on the first day to communicate and when I returned the next day it was on the other side of the room... making it impossible for her to use. When I insisted she needs an interpreter for effective communication, they simply gave her a tablet THAT SHE HAD TO USE BOTH HANDS TO USE. Famously deaf people need their hands to communicate so this did not work and they did not offer a solution. At one point they caused her wounds to open and she was bleeding all over her body. They insisted that I come in and interpret so she wasn't scared.... hmm seems if they needed me they also needed an ACTUAL INTERPRETER. Please please do not send your loved ones here. My mother and I are still traumatized from our experience and I wouldn't wish what we went through on anyone. I'd give this place 0 stars if I could.

Our daughter absolutely adored her. Lisa was always available whenever I had questions, responded quickly, and collaborated closely with our daughter's other therapists to ensure she received the best possible support. From the very beginning, they formed a wonderful connection, and over time, Lisa became much more than a therapist--she became a true friend to our daughter. Even now that we've moved away, Lisa still takes the time to chat with her from time to time, which means so much to all of us. We truly cannot recommend Lisa highly enough. We are incredibly grateful for everything she has done for our family, and we are all very sad not to have her by our side anymore. Thank you as well for always checking in and making sure everything was going well. We really appreciated your support throughout the process. - Peggy, mom of Upper West Side 4th grader

She really jumped on board and joined our team to help him. It truly felt like a partnership to work with her. His stealth dyslexia diagnosis came as a surprise to us, so Anna's expertise was incredibly valuable. She was able to educate us as parents, as well as navigate his giftedness with ease. Anna's background and passion for helping kids is such an asset that any family would be so lucky to work with her. If she is still in the area next summer, I will definitely be reaching out to her to see if we can work together again. ~ Meghann, mom to Long Island 7 year old

    ***Shirley Tao, who is a Healthcare Recruiter for Apex, exhibited disrespectful, inconsiderate,…read moredeflective, and other unprofessional conduct and behavior, and a lack of transparency regarding pertinent information related to an application I had submitted, for which I have now withdrawn my interest and application for the position previously applied for. *** I applied for an HHA position I found on Indeed that APEX had posted. Not long after I submitted, I received communication from Shirley and spent the end of last week running around to get diagnostic testing redone, etc. At no point did Shirley or the Indeed posting indicate "the facility has been known to be slow on interviews it does take them a few days to review" it wasn't until I withdrew my application via email that this information came to light if this was not bad enough, she had the audacity to tell me in the same email response she states " I did not hear from them an interview confirmation so I did not say anything" makes the entire interaction even worse and reinforces my point about a lack of transparency, consideration, and respect, which reflects very badly on her character and, subsequently, Apex. Sending a quick update, such as "Hey so-and-so" or whatever greeting you choose, followed by "I've submitted all your information to the facility. Once I receive an update regarding an interview date, I will let you know," or something along those lines, shows you respect the applicant and their time. Choosing not to say anything, as she did, and making that admission (which I would have kept to myself) indicates a basic lack of respect for the prospective applicant. There is a stark difference between miscommunication and non-communication, and it is apparent that she does not know the difference. In this case, this was non-communication on her part, but she says, "it was miscommunication," and, more importantly, there was a lack of transparency from the very beginning. She deflected, blaming the facility and/or me for her lack of candor/professionalism, when it was her/Apex responsibility to be transparent, which would have allowed me and other applicants who value their time to make an informed decision, but Shirley prevented that. When a person hides important facts and prevents you from making a smart choice about a job, it is called job scamming, fraud by omission, or deceptive recruitment. That is what Shirley did by preventing me, and potentially other prospective applicants, from making an informed decision. I have chosen to post these interactions as a matter of public interest and to warn others about potential interactions they may have when dealing with Shirley Tao. Some may ask why I gave it 2 stars if the interaction was this bad. The reason for the 2 stars is that A. Mahamed from H.R., whom I spoke to on the phone about this matter, was very pleasant to deal with and showed compassion, understanding, and a legitimate desire to resolve this matter. But I can't stay silent and not make others aware of these interactions with Shirley, because then I am complicit and a hypocrite for discussing issues of transparency and then not being transparent myself.
