“Speak Out has been a place of growth, support, and fun for my daughter and our family. My daughter began speech in-person in September 2020 as a two year old making only a couple sounds. Trisha made my daughter comfortable during a rocky time for all of us in the depths of the pandemic and has turned her into a confident, chatty five year old. Trisha and her therapists were able to issue spot and refer my daughter for occupational therapy and considered feeding therapy as well. They have helped to guide us through the process of seeking DOE reimbursements and a variety of other life adventures. As a mother, Trisha fully understands life with children and is always available to help with challenges and tailor treatment plans and exercises to our daily schedule. My daughter always comes out of her sessions with a grin on her face.”

“My now 10-year-old went to Speak Out NY for multiple speech issues when she was younger. Trisha and her team are not only highly skilled in what they do, but the environment in which they do it is welcoming and easy, full of life. My son is with Speak Out NY now and I am already seeing progress. We are so happy with this practice and highly recommend it. “

“Speak Out New York has been fantastic for our son. He started with speech therapy a year and a half ago, at just under 4 years old. He made incredibly fast progress in just the first few months, going from not having any soft sounds (he was replacing all of his F, V, S, Z, Sh, Zh, J sounds with hard G and K sounds) and being hard to understand to being completely intelligible. He is still in therapy, but people today don't believe me that he needs speech therapy. And he's doing great in school. Could not have better things to say!“

“Speak out NY is like NO OTHER. I am beyond blessed to have met them so early on in my children’s life. Both of my children have been working with them for over 10 years. My son had a lisp which Vicki diagnosed very early on and through treatment he no longer has it.

My daughter has a genetic stutter, she will always have this stutter but through the teachings and therapy from the Speak out NY therapists my daughter is learning techniques to manage it.

They are highly recommended!!!! You would be crazy to go elsewhere!“

“I cannot say enough positive things about Speak Out New York! My son has been working with Trisha for the past 7 months and she is absolutely amazing! She is so knowledgeable, caring, nurturing, loving and so incredibly dedicated to her work. Trisha made my son feel at home right away and because of that she has allowed my son to blossom in so many ways- he has become so much more confident and independent and most importantly, his speech has really taken off. Trisha gave my son the tools he needed to get his speech going and I am forever grateful for her. I would choose Speak Out New York again and again!”

“We love Speak Out. Our preschooler has been working with Vickie for almost a year and the improvement that we have seen from working with her is remarkable. Vickie completely transformed our child’s articulation so quickly in such a fun and nurturing environment. We have seamlessly continued to work with Vickie throughout the COVID Pandemic. The sessions have turned out to be just as effective online even though the office visits are very fun with all of the toys and games. We are so grateful to have Speak Out as a constant in our changing environment. We highly recommended Vickie and Speak Out.”
