I cannot say enough about the skill, attention and organization of this practice in exceeding our…read moreexpectations of care! They are extremely responsive to our blended family's needs. We received the most caring and perceptive therapist, Christine Fontaine, to help our son with what seemed to be merely a speech articulation problem after some therapy at school, orthodontic devices, etc. However, after these treatments failed to resolve our son's speech articulation, We took him to Speech Wise and met Christina. She performed an evaluation and immediately informed us the results in great detail. She informed us right away that it was possible that our son might need a different type of therapy but it was going to take some trial and error to determine the root cause of his struggles. After every session, she would send a detailed email to both my ex-husband and I, who have 50/50 custody of our son, splitting the time he is with us on a weekly basis. This makes therapy and other treatments difficult, but with Christina's help and guidance, we were able to stay on top of his care. Once she discovered that he would need to have orofacial myofunctional therapy first before speech articulation would be effective, she communicated that to us quickly. While she was working to sort out the issues she was seeing, she even took it upon herself to get certified in this type of therapy! Christina Fontaine is an amazingly caring and talented speech pathologist and we'll forever be grateful to her treatment of our son. He even cried on his last session, saying how much he would miss her!!

While I have grown out of the worst of my stuttering, I wanted to fix some lingering issues. She never made me feel invalidated and always took my concerns, however minuscule, seriously.

She is the kindest, sweetest, and most patient therapist you will ever meet and you would be lucky to be helped by her. I will forever be grateful!!

My son was 10-years-old and was still not producing a correct "r" sound. We kept thinking he'd…read moreoutgrow it, and when we realized he wasn't and that people were still having a hard time understanding him, we started scrambling to research speech therapy which we were completely new to (and since he excelled academically he didn't qualify for any speech services through school). Jamie responded quickly to my email with all the pertinent information I needed and when comparing her to several other well-reviewed therapists in the area we quickly settled on Jamie due to her more competitive rates and it was apparent that she was highly qualified and very easy to work with. She scheduled right away, was able to come right to our house to work with him, and get to work immediately. Within the first session she was able to teach him how to correctly produce an r sound which we had never been able to do with him. She had great rapport with him and though our son was very resistant to the idea of speech therapy, Jamie did a great job making it enjoyable for him and he even looked forward to his sessions. Teaching the r sound at his age can be a difficult one, due to him having to completely re-learn something he's been doing wrong for so long (and he's a BIG talker and communicator), yet we couldn't be more pleased with his progress in a VERY short amount of time. He's producing the sound with essentially 100% accuracy now and we are so glad we decided to invest in speech therapy, which is something I was very nervous about going into... Ms. Tallent is a pleasure to work with, is very knowledgeable in her field, is very easy and flexible in scheduling, and has great communication and competitive rates. I highly recommend her!

And the great thing is Jamie is very flexible and great with children as she is a mother herself. When my daughter "graduated" she was a little sad because she had so much fun playing the games Jamie incorporated to help improve her speech inconspicuously. Jamie is a caring, high energy person that goes the extra mile to make sure her clients are improving. I would highly recommend her services.

She cleaned and repaired them in about 15 minutes, and my mom could hear again almost immediately. Every staff member we interacted with was kind, pleasant, and genuinely helpful. The manager even went above and beyond by giving me phone numbers for medical transportation options since my mom is no longer driving. I apologize for not remembering everyone"s names Knowing this is a nonprofit organization that has been serving the community since 1967 makes the experience even more meaningful. We were so thankful for the prompt care, compassion, and professionalism shown to us when we truly needed it. I am incredibly appreciative and highly recommend them. Thank you and I look forward to bring my Mom for care.

Colleen at Soar Speech and Consulting has been working with our daughter for many months and we…read morecouldn't; be happier with Colleen, her techniques and the progress being made by our daughter. Our daughter had regressed quite a bit when she was no longer eligible for speech services. Therefore, we now pay out-of-pocket for speech services and it has been worth every penny. Colleen is working to get our daughter back to her former level of communication and especially on her speaking clearly so others can understand her. We've seen steady progress, which is very encouraging. Colleen incorporates a unique method of whole body integration into the speech process that uses certain stretches, calming techniques, including body pressure points for calming the nervous system that my daughter can do on her own. She has homework in order to practice and benefit from these techniques at home, but the homework isn't so intense or time consuming that it becomes a burden. It really works! Colleen is well versed on the many issues that can affect speech; even sensory integration issues. Many speech pathologists we've come across don't fully understand and therefore don't use the sensory integration methods. Those particular movements are very beneficial in opening our daughter up to talking and they "get her going". Finding someone who is well versed in so many techniques has been a real find! Colleen is fantastic about parent communication, always keeps us Informed and is available for progress report meetings. We very highly recommend Colleen at Soar Speech and Consulting!
