As someone who has struggled with a stutter my whole life, finding Laura was incredibly refreshing…read more When my best friend asked me to be the maid of honor of her wedding and do a speech, I turned to Laura to help find new tools on how to cope and work through this.

I would highly recommend working with Laura!

Our son has been getting help from Jenni for more than two years now…read more Before finding Jenni, we tried several different speech therapists, but nothing really clicked. Our son would get bored easily, and the therapists didn't quite understand what he needed. But when we met Jenni, everything changed. Our son absolutely LOVES spending time with her - he literally thinks it's a fun playdate! He gets super excited on days when he gets to see her. Jenni's talent with kids is exceptional. Her play-based methods have been instrumental, as they allow therapy to unfold naturally without any sense of pressure. What truly sets Jenni apart is how knowledgeable she is about various aspects of physical and neurological development, leading to her holistic approach to therapy. She seamlessly incorporates activities that not only focus on speech but also enhance various cognitive functions and behavior growth. For instance, she cleverly integrates activities that boost his memory and simultaneously reinforce his ability to name pictures, or plays board games to teach him to take turns and regulate emotions while practicing speech. Since starting with Jenni, our son's vocabulary has expanded exponentially, and his pronunciation and ability to form sentences has remarkably improved. He now confidently communicates and is easily understood by family, friends, teachers, and peers at preschool. Even with all the improvement, we will continue sessions far into the future because she actively contributes to our son's overall development. What Jenni has done for our son is truly life changing, and we are forever thankful to her! We wholeheartedly recommend Jenni for anyone seeking exceptional support for their child's speech and overall development.

Only 1 receives therapy, but when I had to bring the other along to sessions, SLP Claire was awesome about making it work anyhow.

He has verbal apraxia and was not saying too much when she met him, but he now has so many new words I can't keep track. She has always been able to get him to make just about any sound, which he practices with her until he gets the confidence to say it in everyday speech. The PROMPT technique seems ideal for kids with apraxia and Kayle is a certified expert (she even teaches it).

Our son enjoyed his sessions with Tiffany and developed a strong connection with her, which was key in making progress.

I came to Susan Cohn & Associates despondent, crestfallen, beleaguered (name your negative…read moreadjective - I was living it!) after a completely unproductive experience with my daughter's prior speech therapist. Out of a sense of obligation to my daughter, I reached out to Amy Svensson, who handled my cynical intake questions and comments like a champ. I appreciated Amy handling the intake process, as we were able to preserve objectivity ahead of our evaluation with our selected speech therapist, Cassie. After mentally deciding to try a new therapist "for a couple weeks", the results we had with Cassie were indisputable. After just a few sessions, I was able to get my daughter to attempt words that I would say - a perceived impossibility just weeks earlier. My daughter started her journey with Cassie saying only 15 words; a few months later, we are counting well into the hundreds. Speech therapy became a highlight of my daughter's week almost immediately after we started - it's become a true highlight of my week as well. As with many speech delays, the road ahead of us promises to be long, but I am confident of our continued progress thanks to Cassie and the team at Susan Cohn and Associates. If you are losing hope like I was, do yourself a favor and give Susan Cohn a call!

Do not go to this office…read more Referred by my son's primary care but after 2 weeks of back and forth, the office still can't clarify what our first visit will cost. They specifically told me to wait for a diagnosis code, then "forgot" to follow up. There is a total lack of clarity with the billing contact in their office. And then they insist we come in anyway so they can submit billing to the insurance and if it's not covered, it will just be one out of pocket visit cost. Sounds like they're out to make money, not help their patients- who in this case is a 3 year old. Frankly, they had more than 2 weeks to validate insurance coverage and are incompetent when it comes to communication. I mean, just pay out of pocket right? They'll figure it out later !
