My daughter is currently a patient in Ms. Chen's speech program, and my husband and I are very…read morehappy with the progress we are seeing. We have been seeing our speech therapist, Gabby, twice a week for sessions for approximately six months. Gabby is energetic, playful, and terrific with children, and my daughter (who is 2) loves her. We have also worked with Madeleine, Eliza, and Devon (as a secondary therapist in our daughter's sessions) and we think they are all wonderful. One of the biggest benefits for us was that this office accepts our insurance (Aetna) and submits claims on our behalf. I would also like to mention that our older daughter had a great experience in speech therapy here as well about 18 months ago. Ms. Chen does a great job finding the right therapists to work with children who are knowledgeable and caring. I would highly recommend this practice to anyone thinking about having their child tested for a speech delay!

My daughter's therapist is positive, engaging, and able to captivate my daughter's attention and effort such that she has been able to practice and make progress on the sounds that are challenging for her. This is a remarkable skill - especially when working on a skill that is innately challenging to a 3-4 year old. In the last year, the clarity of my daughter's speech has improved tremendously, and most importantly, she is a far more confident, happy girl as she is able to communicate effectively with friends, teachers, and family. She is happy attending and truly enjoys her speech sessions. Josephine and her therapists are professional, exceptionally well trained, kind and great at what they do. We feel so lucky to have found this gem and highly recommend this practice.

My daughter has received PT and OT at WTS under the EI program since she was 17 months old. In…read morethat time she has learned SO much and gotten so strong. When she started, she was on sensory overload, couldn't really walk, couldn't climb, had really low muscle tone, wouldn't eat anything, and a host of other concerns. Now she is a totally different kid. She jumps, climbs, runs, (kinda) eats, and is so well adjusted. When we first started, her tantrums would alarm anyone within ear shot. Now, it's been months since she has thrown a tantrum. Her therapists genuinely care about her and her progress. She recently had her CPSE evaluation and her progress is remarkable. She will continue to see her therapists at WTS until she ages out of CPSE and by then I am confident she will be doing all of the age appropriate things.

Of all the therapies, doctors, treatments and paths we've pursued over the years with David, Susan Varsames is the one that stands out as having made the most impact on his life.

When my husband and I learned that our son Stef, at 2 years old, had permanent hearing loss in both…read moreears and would need hearing aids, it suddenly made sense why his speech was delayed. We immediately engaged Early Intervention to obtain a speech therapist. We struck gold when we were matched with Corie from The Speech Studio. For all intents and purposes, Stef is a normal 2 year old boy and I worried about him warming up to and cooperating with a therapist of any kind. Due to Corie's approach and demeanor, it truly took no time for Corie and Stef to bond. Corie both literally and figuratively got down to Stef's level. She has never sat on a chair in my house because she's on the floor with my son directly engaging with him. She uses her folder and paperwork to create tunnels and bridges for Stef's cars, all while prompting him to mimic her sounds. He is her client. Additionally, as I work full-time, Corie emails me status updates regarding how he did in his sessions and observations she's made. She sends me resources regarding different ways to praise and encourage Stef in an effort to expand his vocabulary. Corie even made me a duplicate set of her flash cards, unique to the sounds Stef needs extra help with, so I can practice with him at home. With his hearing aids, Stef can now hear like a normal child. It is because of Corie though that he can repeat what he's in fact hearing. Corie did not ask me to write her a reference. I offered. It's important to me that other children with hearing loss and difficulty with speech get the same care my son has received and continues to receive from Corie / Early Intervention. I can't thank Corie enough for her work, her craft and for caring about my son's development as much as I do.

In addition it's so convenient that her services are in home versus having to go to an office. Another layer of convenience!

She spent four months with our family and during that time became such a consistent positive presence in our daughter's life. Kelsey brings positive energy to each session and the child feeds off of it. She got to know our daughter on a very personal level, her likes and dislikes, and brought activities that fit well in the greater scheme of how our daughter learns. Our sessions were incredibly productive. When she first came, our daughter could only say 15-20 words. When Kelsey left four months later, our daughter was speaking in full paragraphs. I cannot say enough wonderful things about Kelsey and Spark Speech. She truly was a blessing in our lives and I would recommend her to anyone thinking about hiring a private Speech therapist!
