Amanda is AU-MAZ-ZING! I can't say enough about the progress that my son has made in a short amount of time. When we started back in August of this year, he wasn't comfortable using words and had a difficult time learning them. She recognized what worked for him and tailored her approach to him and with her guidance, he has flourished.
He now tries speaking even when he doesn't know all the words and his confidence is growing enough to where he doesn't shy away from other children when they try and talk to him. He's even now comfortable going up to them and talking!
Lasandra (sp?) at the front desk is wonderful too, both she and Amanda make my day with their humor and fun personalities. My kiddo loves coming there and I'm so thankful how flexible they have been with my schedule and my inability to show up at the right time. Either wayyyyy too early or a bit late but it's ok, my son loves sitting there and waiting for his turn. He never has that kind of patience for any other place but he honestly loves it here.
They have worked around my scheduling because they understand my situation and it allows me to come take my son to his appointments later on the weekdays. Communication is great and she always updates me a bit after every session to let me know what they're working on, how he did, and what they're going to try out next time. She will even work with my kid's school and their speech therapist to make sure they're all on the same page with his therapy. I really appreciate having another person advocate for my son and what is best for him.
With her advice, it's helped me work with my son outside of his sessions and he is able to and likes to tell me how happy he is. read more
