SpeechEase Therapy

“We asked Ina to make a speech & language assessment for our then 1 year and 9-month old toddler who was non-verbal and is showing signs of ASD. We also did several teletherapy sessions with Ina so that my husband and I could learn how to effectively communicate with our toddler and get her to communicate with us.
 

The strategies and activities that she prepared for us really worked, her instructions were clear and easy to understand. Our favorite was her OWL method (Observe, Wait, and Listen). Though it was a challenge for us the first few times we tried it, we saw the benefits as early as the first week. Our toddler does try to communicate with us in her own way! We just have to pay attention, wait, and watch out for the signs.
 

Ina was very professional and methodical. She kept track of what was planned and set goals. She even asked us to list the everyday mundane tasks that we do so that we can practice those strategies everyday while doing our 'usual' errands and chores. 
 

Lastly, we really felt that Ina was very open, she listened to, and empathized with us especially with our frustrations while working on and applying the methods & techniques that we need to learn.”
