SLG is awesome! My son was unable to read on grade level but after SLG worked with him, his confidence and language skills greatly improved. I am forever grateful

“My son had the honor of having Nyota as his speech pathologist for some time. She has helped him immensely with his speech and vocabulary, as well as making sure he achieved all his goals set for him at his evaluations. When she first began speech therapy with my son, he was completely non-verbal. 3 years later and he is now using 4-to-5-word phrases! She was always supportive and dedicated to helping my son achieve his goals. Nyota has not only helped my son but also me as his mother. She always made sure I understood everything during his evaluations and I was always asked if I would like to add any goals for him. She introduced me to PECS visuals as a form of requests (when he was non-verbal) and he now uses his PECS visuals as a schedule to help him throughout his day. Our family loved having Nyota on our team; Her caregiver training sessions are informative and extremely helpful. We miss her and all of her loving, genuine, support.”

“My son had a severe articulation disorder and not many people could understand him. Many people joked that they couldn’t speak his language.” As a parent I was very afraid of him starting school; how would he tell his teacher he was hurt, needed help, or that he had to use the bathroom? But then came Nyota into our lives. She had techniques to help him make sounds he had never pronounced in his life. She gave me the necessary tools to help his speech on days we didn’t have therapy sessions and techniques to use in our everyday lives; she called them Caregiver Training classes. She sent helpful links and printed worksheets for him to practice for homework. When my daughter started having early speech delays, she helped me recognize them and gave me strategies to help her. To this day my son talks all about the fun he had with Nyota, not even realizing they were working on his speech for that whole year together. She helped make our lives better and especially his. I know she will do the same for many more families and their children.”

“Ms. Saunders, is an expert speech and language pathologist. She has worked with my child for several months. I can say she has done an excellent job, as my daughter had a severe speech disorder. It was so hard for her to have a conversation with anyone, because no one could understand her. Nyota is a very responsible professional who’s incredibly prepared for her job. She’s very patient with kids and has enough experience as to make her classes fun so the children are eager to learn.”

The speech therapy my son went through was really helpful!! Nyota, his therapist, helped him patiently, though we could see visible changes in a really short time. Soon he was able to say words like colors, animal names or even his own name. He also learned to respect the properties of others and got interested in learning more. He even became more disciplined with his therapy and more disciplined in his behavior. As a family, we try to follow Nyota’s therapy pattern and advice from the Caregiver Training Sessions, so he keeps on improving.

Nyota did a great job with my child as a therapist, as she helped her to develop both her skills in Spanish and English. My daughter had speech problems and thanks to therapy she was able to improve her vocabulary and make herself understood. I hope she can help you as well as she helped us!”
