Ms. Larissa made a plan and carried it out with amazing results. One year later, my son's tongue strength has increased greatly and he is able to make all of his sounds correctly. Ms. Larissa is an exceptional teacher. She is respectful, kind and patient. She has a positive and attitude and enthusiastic manner and always keeps my child engaged with games and fun activities and encourages him talk about his interests. Ms. Larissa is flexible with schedules and can switch easily between Zoom and in-person appointments at her quiet, kid-friendly office. I highly recommend Ms. Larissa at Aim High Speech.

My sons went here 2 years and had a wonderful experience. This school ushered them into the world…read moreof education and it was wonderful. One son had a male teacher, which a friend jealously said he'd had to wait till he was in 4th grade to get a male teacher. I liked all the teachers there. I love it that it's integrated, that people with disabilities are included, and they have a dedicated specialist staff. So friendly were a couple of assistant teachers that after work they would come to the park to keep playing with my sons, after work. That is just awesome. It's a very warm and lovely school which I highly recommend. The sad thing is that it's not just filled with kids from around there, and my sons lost a lot of friends because people came from all over the place to go to this school. My eldest told me he was going to get married to his first sweetheart here. I asked him who he wanted as his best man, and he was confused. I wondered to the teacher if it was a bit weird. She said it was intimacy and that's good. Later my son had other girlfriends. He sure was a player in this preschool. They let you spend the day with your child, which I've done a bunch of times. Openness in a school is very important to me, so I just found that so cool. I adore the staff there and thank them so much for all their hard work.

I personally met with Uri Schneider on two occasions about 10 years ago. My purpose for meeting…read morewith him was to address a stuttering problem that I felt was holding me back from living my life (specifically, finding a job and getting married). Even though I didn't meet with him for very long, the interaction that we had was transformative for me. I am now happily married and gainfully employed. The following advice that Uri gave me had a profound influence on me: 1. Life is bigger than stuttering. Many people who struggle with a stuttering problem convince themselves that their speech impediment will make it impossible for them to do anything with their lives. This is a very unhealthy way of thinking. Even if you experience interruptions in your speech, you should recognize that what you have to say is important, and people are interested in listening to what you have to say. Even though I still have a noticeable stutter, I have found that I am able to connect with people on an emotional level when I speak in public. This is something that I never imagined I would be able to do only several years ago. 2. Stuttering is essentially a physical problem and is not a reflection of a person's psychological state, level of intelligence, or emotional stability. Being able to educate others about what stuttering actually is makes it much less uncomfortable to discuss the subject. 3. The secondary behavior of forcing words out of your mouth is an important contributing factor that tends to exacerbate the severity of a stutter. I find that intentionally pausing between words or syllables greatly increases my fluency of speech. 4. It is critical to desensitize yourself to the reactions of other people to your stutter. Even though I am not naturally an assertive person, I have learned to speak up even in uncomfortable situations. I find that many people respect me more when they see the courage that I display. In my perspective, what sets Uri apart from other speech therapists who treat stuttering is that he understands the human impact of the disorder, and treats his patients as human beings with a challenge, rather than as machines that need fixing. While stuttering isn't a "curable" disorder, it is critical to address the emotional impact of it and learn how to cope with the problem. In my own situation, the severity of my stutter has gradually decreased over time. While this is not uncommon, I am aware that not everyone has the same experience.

First she doesn't allow for you to enter the room with your child. She tried to drown out the sound with the AC but I could hear her through the walls frustrated with my child and absolutely rude. You wouldn't want anyone speaking you that way let alone your child! My child would exit in tears and would not want to come back. The only reason you see five star reviews on google is bc she pressures you into doing so. Second, you can save yourself a lot of money and just use the book that she takes photocopies of and is the only thing she uses with your child. Its called the Jumbo Articulation Drill Book (but any speech therapist has one). Aside from the rudeness I don't think she knows what she's doing. Yes she is less expensive than other therapists but you get what your paid for. I now pay more elsewhere but the therapist is much more thorough. When I showed her what Alyson was doing, she was shocked. Do yourself and your child a favor and go elsewhere.
