Testimonials

“Melissa is a stellar professional. Her wealth of knowledge, flexibility and access to the tools and resources to help both of my children has been invaluable. Whether in home or in clinic, Melissa was extraordinary in meeting the kids at their level and delivering creative ways to teach and maintain their skillsets. She even made speech and communication fun for us adults too. It really takes a village. Early intervention and consistency is key. My kids have come such a long way. We are so thankful to have had Melissa be apart of our family’s Autism journey."

“We were devastated when my son was diagnosed with Autism Spectrum Disorder. We did a couple speech therapies with no improvement before we found Melissa. She is very dedicated and works with passion to see improvement in the child. She was able to manage the child's behavior and work on the goals effectively. My son started speaking sentences with Melissa and we were very happy to see the improvements. When Melissa [left] Bellevue, many families lost hope and we couldn't find a good speech therapist [for] five years. I occasionally email Melissa to check her availability to work with my son. I am so relieved and excited to know that she is starting a new clinic. I know she will change many lives.
Good luck to you Melissa.”
