1 star for speech therapy. If I could, id give -5 stars. My son is autistic and this was the first place that he started any therapy with so I didnt know much about anything whatsoever. He started speech therapy before his autism diagnosis and the way the therapist was forcing him to do stuff by holding him down and making him scream every single time we would go there was nothing but cruelty. When we got the autism diagnosis I started him with ABA therapy at a different place and he LOVES going there, but when we would come to this place he would scream and not want to go. The last therapy session that we had before I canceled all the rest was when I saw him crawling scared trying to hide his face in the ground and trying to get away from the therapist. I will never forget that memory! Thats when I decided that I will never go there again! I blame myself because I didnt know any better and I thought that thats the way it should be done, until he started different therapies with different therapists and I saw how much he loves it there so I realized that what this speech therapist was doing was TORTURE! People actually advised me many times to sue this place for the stuff they did to my son!

If you are a new patient do not see Brian, if you are partnered with Brian please ask for a new therapist. Have had very bad experiences with him over multiple sessions.

It took awhile to come up with a diagnosis for My Son... But once we determined fully his issues, we really started to notice improvements. I Really Appreciate the speech therapists and occupational therapists... They really take time to explain the techniques and therapies to parents... And they always treated My Son exceptionally even when he was difficult... I would also like to give Special Recognition and Profound Thanks and Appreciation to speech therapist Mareka Gaul... She has helped My son make tremendous progress and give My family confidence, that He was gonna be OK going forward.. THANK YOU!!!
