Words can't begin to describe how wonderful and effective Laurie is. We brought our son to her at around two years old when he had only about three words and nothing else we tried was working. Laurie quickly identified the root of the issue and her approach made an immediate difference. The progress our son has made is life-changing, and we are endlessly grateful. We truly can't sing her praises loudly enough--Laurie is simply incredible and the best speech therapist we could have ever hoped for. The office is easy to get to, plenty of free parking and easy to navigate! read more

Laurie is amazing. We brought our daughter to Laurie when she was 2 years old, unable to make sounds or talk. After the first assessment, Laurie identified the root cause and worked with her twice a week for 2.5 years. Our daughter is now 4 and speaking at age level. She helped her not only learn to speak, she helped her language as well and gave her so much confidence along the way. We now have a chatty and very confident 4yr old who is excelling at school. We are beyond grateful for Laurie, her expertise and knowledge of speech, language and development is amazing. Thank you Laurie! read more

We feel incredibly fortunate to be working with Laurie. Our daughter has both apraxia and autism, and after over six years in speech therapy, we've never experienced progress like this. Laurie is by far the most knowledgeable therapist we've worked with. She's consistently engaging, intuitive, and truly understands how to connect with our daughter. Each session is purposeful and productive, and Laurie always seems to know exactly what to focus on next to support meaningful progress. What we especially appreciate is how Laurie involves us as parents--coaching us, answering our questions, and giving us practical tools to use at home. The difference her guidance has made, both in our daughter's development and our confidence as parents, is incredible. We couldn't recommend Laurie more highly. read more

My son, 9 years old, starting seeing Laurie for speech services after trying several other SLPs over the course of 2 years. He struggled with the R sound and some L sounds. Laurie was the first SLP to actually get my son to pronounce the sounds correctly! It took some time, but she was patient and persistent. I very much appreciated how Laurie was kind but made him work hard, and she was clear about what homework we needed to do in between sessions to keep him on track. I honestly believe Laurie changed his life in a way I didn't think anyone could. I would highly recommend Laurie to anyone seeking speech therapy for their children! read more

Where do I begin!!! Laurie is truly phenomenal. Worked with many speech therapists and she takes the trophy. She knew exactly how to challenge my son, grasp is attention and break some of the bad habits he was forming. My son learned so many different ways how to ask for things, how to say no thank you and actually follow proper gestures. The office is super clean and the toys she uses are so awesome that she uses them in different ways which helps my son break repetition of doing things. Highly recommend!! read more

My wife and I are so happy and grateful that we met Laurie. Our son was behind on speech milestones and she worked wonders for him. We started off at two days a week and then went down to one after he made a lot of progress. He is now speaking and talking at his age level and we are so thankful. We strongly recommend Laurie to parents who are searching for help for their children. read more

Laurie Martin is an amazing speech language pathologist who has been our son's speech teacher for almost four years. We are so grateful for her expertise, dedication, and kindness. When we first met Laurie, our four-year-old son was struggling with enunciation and sound deletions. He had difficulty expressing himself and communicating with others. Laurie worked with us, even in the midst of the worst of the pandemic, to help our son and ourselves as parents on a plan that has resulted in a dramatic increase in understandability for his speech. Laurie is so great with kids and was very patient even as our son would get frustrated at certain speech practice and challenges. She used fun and engaging activities to motivate him and make him feel comfortable. She also guided us through the process and gave us helpful tips and feedback on how to support our son at home. We are so thankful to have Laurie as our SLP and as a trusted advisor for our son's speech development these last four years. She has made a huge difference in his life and ours. We could not recommend her enough! If you are looking for a speech language pathologist who is professional, knowledgeable, and compassionate, look no further than Laurie Martin. She is the best! read more

Spent a small fortune and didn't see any progress, told LM I needed to pause services and didn't even hear back. Hello, is this thing on ???? read more

What sets Laurie apart is her wealth of knowledge and expertise in the field of speech therapy. She ensures that her clients receive the best possible care.

She is a dedicated and caring professional who is committed to helping children achieve their full potential. Thank you Laurie for helping us and for your valuable expertise. read more

If you need an amazing speech therapist Laurie Martin is it! She helped my son who was 2 at the time with his speech delay. She is personable, patient and completely invested in helping your child talk! I cannot recommend her enough. My son is now speaking in full sentences and doesn't want to stop talking! Can't thank Laurie enough! read more

My daughter (2 years old) connected with Laurie right away which truly helped her progress in her speech delay. Laurie was very professional, punctual, communicative, and provided a clean and fun office atmosphere. My daughter really looked forward to visiting Laurie and we saw improvement right away. It was bittersweet when it came time to end our visits since we were so elated that our daughter had successfully hit all her milestones in the time specified and yet it meant we would also miss our visits with Laurie! We highly recommend her. read more

Laurie changed our Olivia's (and ours of course) I friend when she was able to say "mama" for the first time after just a couple sessions. L

Mrs Laurie is the absolute best! We went to her when we were lost and did not know how to help our baby develop gestures and social skills. It's been two years and we wouldn't know how to thank her. It's been a rollercoaster but our daughter has improved in ways we couldn't have imagined. Thank you Laurie for everything you have done for us , we couldn't recommend you enough!! read more

Laurie Martin is the best speech therapist I have ever met. As a kid, I went to speech therapy and never progressed very much. I took my toddler to meet Luaire when he was unintelligible. within a few months, Laurie had him speaking and expressing himself to the point that perfect strangers are now able to understand most of what he says. I recommend Laurie to anyone without hesitation. P.S. My son now misses going to Laurie's office and playing with her! read more

Laurie worked with my son from the time he was 18 months old to 4.5. He came to her speaking at a 6 month level and graduated at a 4-5 year old level. Laurie is an excellent speech language pathologist who doesn't waste one second during sessions. She starts on time and always fully engaged my son for 30 minutes straight, getting him to say sounds and words I hadn't heard him say before. Laurie's not only a great speech language pathologist, she's also a very kind human being who really took a personal interest in making sure that my child would get where he needed to be. I highly recommend Laurie! 10/10! read more

First things first- we cannot recommend Laurie enough! Our 7 year old son was having difficulty with his "s" words and had a lisp that we wanted to help him improve if possible. Laurie responded to our inquiry for an evaluation quickly and from the very first meeting- created a comfortable and fun environment for him that resulted in amazing progress and confidence in our son. After only 5 or 6 lessons, he has shown incredible progress and nearly completely eliminated signs of his previous lisp. We were given helpful practice guides and tips that have been invaluable. We are so proud of our boy and so thankful for Laurie and her support. read more

Laurie has been an absolute blessing to our son. She is an excellent speech pathologist. From a thought out list of priorities for our son to a diligent lesson plan, engaged sesssion, and prompt defined next steps; Laurie does it all. I can honestly say the change in demeanour and confidence emerging in my son is amazing. Thank you Laurie for changing the lives of my wife and I. read more

My son was 20 months when he started seeing Laurie. He had a few words, but he was mostly referring to everything as BAA. In the first few months, Laurie helped my son develop an ample, consistent and clear sound library. When that was stock full, she then began shaping those sounds into words. By 28 months, my son has more than 400 words and speaks in 4+ word phrases. Our family and friends can't stop commenting about how much progress he's made! We are thrilled and forever grateful to Laurie. My son LOVED his time with Laurie and I learned so much by watching. (Moms and Dads, the sky's the limit if you're willing to work with her as a team)!! Laurie is dedicated, persistent, talented, hardworking and FUN. Her technique is absolutely fascinating. I can't recommend her enough. Thank you, Laurie! read more

We took our child to Laurie for a few sessions. Although we learned a game to play for our child's stuttering, all the appointments felt very rushed and nothing really stuck . Also there wasn't any activities provided for us to further help him at home other than telling our child to slow down in the beginning of words. After about 3 sessions she said he should be good and that was that. Our son still struggles with his speech and we are left with nothing from the hundred dollar sessions to continue to help him. She's a sweet person, but didn't really seem invested in our sons need for help so therefore wasn't the fit for us. read more

Laurie did a wonderful job helping my son with a few speech issues. He is 14 years old so these problems were quite ingrained. Laurie worked patiently and methodically with him and it's made a huge difference. read more

Laurie was fantastic!! My son came to her not knowing many of his sounds and after 9 months of working with her, he sounds great! She was thorough in her teaching but also made it fun for him. I would highly recommend her! read more

If you are in search of a speech therapist look no further. Laurie is fantastic!! My 2.5 was experiencing some speech delays. I found Laurie through Yelp. My Daughter had seen one speech therapist prior and had an unpleasant experience. Fortunately Laurie won my Daughter over right away. She worked with her through play. Was incredibly supportive. After only a couple sessions there was an evident shift in my Daughters speech. She began putting words together, sentences, speaking much clearer. It's been so exciting to watch her progress. The best part is that my Daughter is very proud of herself. Finding Laurie was a true blessing. Really can't say enough good things about her. read more

I HIGHLY recommend Laurie to anyone that has a kid or kids in need of speech therapy or a speech therapist. Laurie is first class and not only is she a master at her craft and very intelligent, but she's driven, focused, professional, thorough, caring, charismatic, helpful, and informative as well! Our kids love Laurie like family and they look forward to visiting with her every week. We are so blessed and grateful to know Laurie! She helped our kids navigate some tough speech impediments and now our kids are flourishing and thriving! Thanks again Laurie for everything you do!! read more

I can't say enough good things about Laurie Martin and the work she did with my son. My son was struggling a bit with talking (he's currently 21 months) and we went to Laurie at the suggestion of my pediatrician. After our first session I was blown away by the progress my son made after just one meeting. We continued to meet with Laurie weekly, and he has improved improved leaps and bounds with his vocabulary and ability to communicate. When first meeting Laurie you can tell she is very passionate about her work, and cares deeply about the child she is working with. She is very personable and down to earth which is not always the case with some specialist. What I also liked is that she gave us (my husband and I) the tools to work with our child at home between sessions. I am very grateful for all that Laurie has done for my son. If you feel your child is struggling and needs some extra help...she is great. read more

I have been so blessed to have Laurie on my team working with my son. After just a short period of time, my son has made leaps and bounds, and after each session there are remarkable improvements. Teachers at his school often tell me how much he's improving, and I know it's because Laurie is amazing at what she does, truly cares about my son, is enthusiastic and upbeat, and comes up with different activities for us to work on. She's truly a gem! read more

Laurie was absolutely wonderful with our son Bailey and helped his speech grow immensely. We stopped coming as he entered preschool. While he was slightly behind at first because of his delay, he quickly caught up to all the chattering going on, and thanks to the skills Laurie provided him with, he's now chatting up a storm at 3.5 with complete sentences and learning new words daily. She was an absolute pleasure to work with and he adored coming to see her! I highly recommend her! read more

We were referred to Laurie by our pediatrician who recommended speech therapy for my 7-year-old son. His "r" words weren't being properly pronounced. After the first diagnostic, Laurie also caught an issue with his "s" words and so we tackled that first. After 3-4 months, it was almost like a miracle because it happened seemingly overnight, he started to properly pronounce "s" words. Then we moved on to the "r" words for a couple of months - he'd had previous speech therapy (about 3 months) to address the "r" issue but it was with a different SLP over Zoom. All in, we were with Laurie for about 6 months. My son looked forward to his weekly sessions with her. She has many interactive games she uses to make the lessons entertaining. She also sent us home with a binder of at-home exercises to encourage continued practice at home. I highly recommend Laurie for your speech therapy needs. She's great. read more

Laurie is awesome! Great Speech Pathologist! My daughter really joined meeting with her on a weekly bases for about a year. Laurie made it very comfortable for her. Very friendly and approachable. She helped my daughter meet her goals and enabled her to build her confidence. My daughter has continued to blossom and I know Laurie was a huge part of this growth. Thank you so much! read more

I brought my 18 month old Max to Laurie because he was basically non verbal. He would just say "Bah" for everything. Laurie was fantastic with him, so patient and caring, and super effective. She told us at his first consultation that she thought she would likely be able to get him all caught up by the time he turned 2, which at the time to me didn't seem likely, since he wasn't talking at all yet, but sure enough, little by little, he came around and now he's just a month over 2 and I can't shut him up! Just a couple weeks ago Laurie officially graduated him from his therapy and everyone in this family is eternally grateful to her for giving the gift of speech to our little one. Thank You Laurie!!! read more

Laurie is amazing! Our pediatrician Dr. Mann suggested we see Laurie when our daughter started stuttering out of no where, within 5 sessions it all went away. She taught her how to breath and think what she wants to say before as well as some other useful techniques. Thank you for everything! read more

Don't hesitate! I'm picky when it comes to my child's care and had been underwhelmed by prior speech therapists. I was referred to Laurie and she made all the difference in my son's speech. She picked up on his issue straight away and focused the sessions on meaningful and effective exercises. His speech is now understood by all! Getting the right care at the right time is key and it's hard to know who's good. Laurie is a talented and experienced speech therapist - look no further. read more

From day one Laurie impressed us. She evaluated my son and quickly came up with a plan of action. She kept my son engaged and he was always very excited to see her. When we first came to Laurie my 2 year olds speech was very limited. In less than a year he is back on track, able to engage in conversation, ask questions, make observations and his vocabulary is increasing daily. I highly recommend her. We are so grateful we found her. read more

Laurie has been working on my son's speech for over a year and she has done wonders. His speech has improved tremendously. He likes her encouraging and strong personality. He has enjoyed going to see her weekly. He had seen other speech therapists before Laurie Martin and I had to drag him to those sessions. It was such a 180 experience with Laurie. He looked forward to each visit and made such progress over such a short time. I completely recommend Laurie Martin as a speech therapist. read more

After going to two other therapists my pediatrician recommended Laurie to treat my daughter with a language delay. I was immediately impressed by how knowledgeable and kind Laurie was with my daughter. After only 6 months of treatment my daughter is now caught up with her peers!! We are so grateful to have found Laurie read more

My daughter was diagnosed with a speech delay at age 3 and we tried 5 speech therapists, seeing little to no progress, until I met Laurie. She's incredible in how she engages with children, builds a customized action plan and is so dedicated to working with parents to ensure the kids are progressing well. My daughter has improved so much in the past year and a half. We are truly grateful to Laurie and plan to stay with her for a while! read more

Simply excellent! Laurie worked with our son for one year and his speech improved dramatically in that time. Laurie was patient, compassionate and reassuring throughout the entire process. After making significant progress, Laurie said it was time to stop because his speech was age appropriate and no longer showed signs of delay. Thank you Laurie. read more

Simply the best. We are so lucky to have come across Laurie after many unsuccessful attempts with other speech therapists. After evaluating my 2 year old, Laurie was confident that we would start to see progress after his first session. My husband and I were amazed - she was absolutely right. She truly unlocked our son's potential, and his language really took off in the months that we worked with her. My son and I both adored her, and he would look forward every week to seeing her. My son came to Laurie with a handful of words and left as a confident chatterbox. Thanks Laurie :) Game changer. read more

My son was diagnosed with a speech delay and severe phonological disorder at age 2. We tried several other speech therapists around town and he wasn't improving. After we started going to Laurie, my son's speech improved drastically. Laurie is not the type of therapist who just talks while your kid plays. She sits at a small table with your kid and engages him in playing different games and toys while getting your kids to repeat sounds and words. It's a very effective method. My son was discharged at age 4 as he had completely caught up to his peers with his speech. At age 5 he had a couple of sounds that caused him some problems again. We went back to Laurie and she fixed those sounds in no time. He has now "graduated" again. I wouldn't consider going to anyone else. Laurie is absolutely wonderful! read more

Laurie is an incredible speech therapist. She pulled words out of my lo in no time! I would recommend Laurie to anyone with a toddler who has speech delays. We drive 40 minutes each way for her 30 minute therapy sessions. That's how good and effective they are! read more
