From literally the first session our son had with Dr. Sweeney and her colleagues, we have seen…read morebreathtaking improvements in our son's ability to express himself. You may be reading this and thinking this is hyperbole but we brought him in after a speech regression and had our expectations very low. We were expecting a handful of words. After the first speech block he did, we saw miraculous results--phrases and songs and the like. Serious grab the Kleenex stuff. Since then, we have only seen greater milestones passed, funny moments of commenting and describing, and challenging of our son that shows they get him and know what he can say and do. If you have had your kiddo see a speech therapist you know what that means. If you want to engage speech therapists for your child--of any age--from whom you will see significant results and who are smart and tailored in their approach to cracking the code of how your kid operates, look no more. Highest recommendation.

Charged us almost 6K for about 6 weeks of speech therapy for my nonverbal son. Assured us that we…read morecould submit to insurance ourselves but insisted on charging us up front. Promised us he would have a couple of words at the conclusion of the therapy. We tried. And failed. Sweeney and Augustin is considered out of network and while they charged us 6K the insurance only counted 1200. Worse, it was considered out of network so even the 1200 simply went against the out of network deductible. This should have been avoided by doing a pre-authorization but something they didn't offer or encourage. They overpromised, hugely overcharged and didn't deliver.

My son has been seeing Teresa for many years. She worked for Julie Kahn & Associates (another…read morefabulous practice) in Highland Park for awhile and then opened up her own practice in Northfield this summer. Teresa specializes in myofunctional therapy, which uses physical therapy exercises to improve breathing, facial posture and bite. While my son is expected to be in speech for longer he's made great improvements thanks to Teresa, a tongue tie procedure last year and starting orthodontics on the earlier side with Dr. Boyd (a dentist located in the city who specializes in airways). Teresa herself makes therapy fun for my son and he's always happy to go. He's been doing this a long time now so I appreciate that she finds ways to make it fun so that he doesn't get too sick of it. She's also been very helpful when it comes to speaking with Dr. Boyd, our ENT, and the speech therapists at his school. In fact, the therapists at school were so wow'd with Teresa that they even brought her in at one point to do a training for them. The only negative is that Teresa does not take insurance, although from my own research I found it difficult to find a speech therapist who specializes in myofunctional therapy that does take insurance. We did find someone many years ago, but she wasn't nearly as good as Teresa so this is money well spent. I do submit my bills to insurance every week and a little bit is covered each time. I do hope we get thru his treatment soon between the high therapy bills every month + time spent, but I do know that Teresa takes great care of him and has his best interest at heart.

My 95 year old mother passed away after only residing at Warren Barr in Skokie for 1.5 years. When…read morethey moved her from the 7th floor down to the 4th floor her $200 cash were stolen and her portable wheel chair. After purchasing my mom an outfit with extra pair of slacks and using gorilla tape that my 1st cousin was helpful in labeling her clothes, the help stole entire outfit. A friend of the family was on the list to take my mom to the Webster Dental and he phoned Mr while I was at work livid that the Lieberman would not allow him to take my mom and naturally her tooth got infected! Pain and suffering. This friend is like a mom and he is like her son since my brother is deceased. This way she could have enjoyed his company too. He goes back 40 years with my family. When my daughter came in for a visit her portable wheel chair gone so she had to somehow put the standard size in my trunk. Now she passed 1/15/24 and they keep sending bills. The 1st one 1800 and now 3800. My mom is teased so this is why you are getting a right up! They also opened up a credit card in her name. Wtf. The nurse Christina would always avoid me and when I called she never pu or returned my call. Way to go! She would pu the phone everything I walked toward her office. I would like an investigation to all her property that went missing. She fell one time and fractured her ribs so she was sent to Glenbrook hosp. I spent many days sitting and spending time with my mom. On 1/16/24 6pm I came to pu my mom's personal affects and they said Robert's gone for the day Wtf I came the following day so once again they must have been going thru her things. I called the Skokie Police for a theft report and mysteriously Robert turned up and I retrieved my mom's belongings. I'm sorry mom for putting you in this Hell hole but you could no longer take care of yourself! I miss you mom! Lieberman stop sending my mom anymore bills since you obviously no she is dead and you got all her money, Social Security checks, all the money you made for sending out countless bills to keep everything in house. Oh so I had to take my mom to the dentist after the swelling went down after taking antibiotics. Skokie Chick Barbara

Would NOT recommend this place to anyone who is looking for a professional, communicative practice…read moreto work with their children. Since his evaluation, my son has had 3 different therapists, which no one at the practice informed me of until the day of. It was not communicated who would be his ongoing therapist at any point. I had to ask multiple times who his therapist was. After only a few weeks, his therapist went on medical leave for a month (she is still not back), and there was no one for my son to work with while she was gone. You would think an occupational therapy practice would do the bare minimum and assign someone else to work with their child clients while their therapist was gone. I am a therapist myself and cannot believe how unprofessional they are. So disappointed and angry at how my son has been treated there. Do NOT send your child here.

My 2.5yr old son was experiencing severe language delays and a lot of frustration. His entire vocab…read morewas maybe 10 clear words. He had started speech therapy through another agency, however he was not progressing or enjoying the sessions. We switched to this agency and the difference was like night and day! When Kate first contacted us I was incredibly impressed by her professionalism and attention to detail (I'm a clinical social worker - so my standards for service delivery and therapeutic outcomes are very high. And hey, this therapy is for my kid. And he rocks). Our first session with Kate was fantastic. My son warmed to her straight away, and from then on would stand by the window before each session waiting for her to turn up. And open and close the door for her like the gentleman he is. During the first week, we spent time setting goals and talking about how we would be able to assess his development. I also appreciated that Kate told me from the beginning, that she would be transitioning us over to a new therapist, Angie, in a few months. The transition was seamless. Both Kate and Angie have worked so hard with my son and genuinely care about him. They celebrate his successes and cheer him on as loudly as we do. Both have a freakishly good memory and know all his favorite toys, games and activities. Even his favorite color (orange...weird choice, but ok). Angie has even visited his school and met with his teacher to provide extra education for her. So cool. More than anything, I have appreciated how family-centered their practice is. Both therapists have provided us with a wealth of education about ways we can work with him at home, recommendations for schooling and invaluable support and advice. Last year, we had a grunting and screaming kid who was shy and retreating further into his shell. Now we have a little dude that is confident, can string a sentence together and has a wide vocab ("sour cream" and "mouthwash" - anyone?). The greatest joy is to see him so happy and understood by others! I cannot recommend this agency more highly!
