Client Testimonials
"We were so lucky to get Kate as our speech therapist. We have seen our son make leaps and bounds in the three months that we have worked with her. My son is more confident and engaged with his speech. I highly recommend speak easy pediatrics!"
"Kate is a Godsend! Not only is she a toddler-whisperer, she taught us 'the parents' how to help our son in a loving and fun way to communicate verbally with us. Our son only said mama at 2 years old. Now at 3 he has over a 100 word vocabulary. There's no words to express our gratitude."
"My son began seeing Kate several months ago and has made so much progress with his speech! She is so patient with him, and knows just the right way to interact with him to gain his attention and get him to practice. I know without her he would still be struggling and frustrated with himself, and with others. She even sends little videos of their sessions when she meets with him during school hours. Plus I get handwritten instructions on what he is practicing so that I can help him at home. She is really making a difference in our lives and I am sure she can make a difference in your child's life as well!"
"Kate Besonen with Speak Easy Pediatrics is an exceptional speech language pathologist who exceeds all expectations. She worked with my son for an hour per week for 6 months (age 2.5-3 years) and not only caught him up from severe speech delay to above where he needed to be developmentally, but gave him the confidence he needed to start preschool in the Fall. Her evaluations are thorough and give a great explanation of the sounds that need targeting. She is kind, encouraging, enthusiastic, and energetic- just what kids need to be themselves and feel comfortable. Her love for children and passion for improving speech just radiates from everything she does, from the tools she uses (recording, videos, etc), games she brings, instruction she gives to the high-fives, hugs, and sometimes a yummy treat or two! I cannot more highly recommend Kate for any child needing speech therapy. She was a blessing to us and definitely made a lasting impression on our son for which we are so thankful!"
"Kate is a fantastic speech therapist and highly recommend. She helped my daughter Cassie catch up with her speech development in almost a year timeframe and in that time my daughter enjoyed Kate's visits and the associated activities. Kate is a toddler specialist and a blessing for my 2 year old (now 3 year old). Kate is always on time for appointments, knowledgeable and professional. Thank you for all that you do and I would highly recommend Speak Easy Pediatrics for your child's speech therapy needs."
