Parent Testimonials:
"We had a great experience with The Communication Spot and would recommend them to anyone considering speech therapy. Ms. Miller is professional and excellent at instructing her students on how to make changes in their speech. We were pleasantly surprised how quickly our child progressed through the program. My daughter enjoyed and looked forward to going to speech, because of the games they played while she practiced saying certain letters and phrases. I found Ms. Miller to be flexible and accommodating with our busy schedule and a very enjoyable and pleasant person"....Maureen

"My daughter has speech apraxia and a phonological disorder, and we started working with Michele after my daughter aged out of the Babies Can't Wait program. Michele's experience and heart to help kids are both very evident, and she's truly an all-star in her profession. My daughter has made great progress under Michele's care, and the progress has actually exceeded my expectations. I didn't think that my daughter would be able to make as many consonant sounds as she's making now, after only a short period of time. Michele also works great with us as the parents, and really listens to our needs and desires for our daughter. She even takes time to sit down with us Outside of therapy time, to discuss our concerns and desires and to map out goals and a plan for our Daughter. Michele makes therapy time very fun and interactive, and our daughter does not even feel like she's in a therapy session. She just feels like she's having playtime and really enjoys going to therapy. All in all, I highly recommend Michele and think she does an outstanding job." D.L.

This therapy has been a great experience for my son. He had a few problems such as rate, w and y sounds, and inflection. Michele addressed all of these issues just by playing games with him. He loved going to speech and we are both going to miss Michele.

Our son (3-1/2 years old) had a very limited vocabulary when he started therapy. Mrs. M. made him feel very comfortable. Mrs. M took the time to connect with our son. She was able to use his interests to keep our son engaged in the activities that helped him learn. He enjoyed going to speech. Our son has blossomed over the 15 months that he received therapy. He became more confident in communicating his wants and needs. His vocabulary and pronunciation improved every week. I can't thank Mrs M enough for the gift of communication that has helped our entire family.

We are so thankful we found Ms. M for our 5 year old son! He was previously completely nonverbal, and now is very verbal and making clear short sentences thanks to Ms. M! She is patient, kind, and very knowledgeable. I can't say enough good things about the progress my son has made!! It is a gift!!- CG

My son and I are so grateful to have found Ms. Michele at The Communication Spot. She worked with my son on correcting speech and even some social issues in a very personalized and fun manner. She would turn lessons into games based on my son's interests and would provide homework lessons to facilitate practice at home. I appreciated her flexibility in scheduling appointments and the convenient location of her office. Overall, I highly recommend Ms. Michele!
