Testimonials
“Ms. Sharon is truly gifted in her craft. She is more than I could have ever hoped for in a speech therapist. She truly cares about her clients and goes above and beyond to create a tailored program to meet their unique needs. The progress my son has made in working with Ms. Sharon since 2019 is remarkable. My son was given very little hope of every being able to verbally communicate, to now being able to fully communicate at a high level. I cannot recommend Ms. Sharon enough. She has been an absolute Godsend for my son, and she holds a special place in our hearts.”

“Sharon is absolutely incredible! Nothing we say could ever really do her justice, but we will try nevertheless. Our toddler struggled with speech development over the pandemic and we were fortunate to have been matched up with Sharon. Our son made tremendous strides thanks to her time and support, her expertise, guidance, care, humanity… the list goes on. In addition to her technical expertise and overall knowledge as a speech pathologist, she found unique ways to connect with our family. It was evident just how much she cared for and how invested she was in not only helping our son to develop his comfort with speech, but also in helping each of us (my husband, myself, and my other son) create this toolkit of ways to communicate with him. She just made life easier for us all, and we are forever grateful. No words can capture just how impactful she was and how supported our entire family felt. Sharon is a godsend, and I strongly endorse her to any family in need of speech support.”

“Sharon is a very wonderful speech therapist. She worked with my daughter, BD, 9 years old, who is diagnosed with Autism. She received speech service from Sharon last year for at least six months and the time we got service from Sharon, BD really enjoys working with her. Sharon is patient and kind, and very knowledgeable. Sharon has great strategies for speech development. She has all the credentials of a great speech therapist that you would want in a therapist. We love working with Sharon. And we saw BD made a lot of progress learning from Sharon every week. As a parent, I learned a lot from Sharon also, I still continue to apply the speech strategies today with my daughter.”
