Janine was such an amazing teacher to my son during his weekly speech sessions. She put so much thought and effort into each session, especially by incorporating things he loves, like dinosaurs and ocean animals, to make learning fun and engaging for him. She was incredibly patient and always made both my son and us feel comfortable and supported. I especially appreciated how she kept track of the important words and phrases he was learning and provided evaluations so we could see his progress and celebrate all the new words he was using. Overall, Janine was kind, caring, and truly wonderful with our son. I loved that she allowed him to be a three-year-old and enjoy the things he loves while creating a positive learning environment around them. She made every session something he could look forward to, and we are so grateful for all the time, effort, and care she put into helping him grow. We couldn’t have asked for a better teacher!

My 4-year-old absolutely loved his speech classes with Janine. She uses a wide range of games and activities to elicit specific sounds and grammar patterns, so it never felt like a class or therapy to him. He was always excited to see "Miss Janine," who was well prepared with activities featuring animals, Halloween costumes, his favorite (pretend) foods — you name it. His articulation and intelligibility noticeably improved after several sessions. We're very grateful we found her!

Janine has been absolutely amazing! Carson attended weekly speech therapy with her for nearly two years, and the progress he has made has been incredible. From the very beginning, she made him feel comfortable, kept therapy engaging and fun, and always communicated with us about his progress and what we could do at home to help. We are only leaving because Carson is starting kindergarten and our schedules no longer align. If it weren’t for that, we would absolutely continue with Janine. I am so thankful for her dedication, expertise, and genuine care for Carson. I would highly recommend her to any family looking for exceptional speech therapy!

Working with Expressive Speech and Feeding was a fantastic experience! Janine is incredibly knowledgeable and helps parents understand the best way to work with their children. We worked with Janine to address our daughter's bottle refusal. She tailored the support to our daughter and family's needs, experience, and comfortability. She supported us throughout the whole process and was responsive to our questions. We highly recommend working with her.

I first came across Janine while searching for a specialist in the area. I emailed her and received a response almost immediately. Later that same day, our children’s dentist also recommended we reach out to her for a lip/tongue tie assessment and therapy. We were able to schedule the initial assessment right away. Janine has been amazing with our son! She made every session fun, engaging, and something he genuinely looked forward to each week. We’re so grateful for her care, dedication, and expertise — we can’t recommend her enough!

Janine is an earth angel! We went from not eating/ gagging on all solids at 13 months (July 2025) to eating everything and GRADUATING from therapy at 18 months (December 2025). Five months and a night and day difference for our little guy. He enthusiastically eats everything now and loves to try new foods. Janine was so patient and reassuring during the sessions — I was really concerned about choking, and she made sure to move at a pace that felt comfortable for me and my son. Her sessions were worth every single penny and I wholeheartedly recommend her if you're looking for feeding or speech therapy. Thank you Janine for changing our lives for the better!

We are the parents of a 10-month-old child who were recommended to see a speech/feeding specialist by our daughter's pediatrician. After an extensive search, we came across Expressive Speech and Feeding and we scheduled an evaluation session with Janine. Our experience was great from the beginning, scheduling the appointment was very easy, and Janine made us feel at ease and we were able to tell from the first few minutes of the evaluation session that she knows what she is looking for. At the end of the evaluation, Janine was happy with our child's progression and didn't recommend any additional treatment which we made us feel very happy. Janine offered to help with any follow-up questions in the future, and within 24 hours, she emailed us a copy of the visit report. We highly recommend Janine to anybody who is looking for an honest and knowledgeable specialist to evaluate their child's speech/feeding development.

Julie set me up with Stephanie, who assisted my teenage daughter with getting past her lisp via several telehealth sessions. Stephanie was friendly, communicative, and transparent about the progress she was making. We couldn’t be happier w the results.

We love the team at Chatting Children, and are so grateful for them. Even in just one and a half months, my son has already made huge strides in his communication; everyone at school and our family have commented that he is doing so much better! I can't say enough good things about Chatting Children. Julie was fabulous when conducting the initial evaluation and we love/love our therapist Emily. Honestly, my son just lights up when I mention that we are going to play with Ms. Emily. The office is bright and clean and so FUN! The playground room immediately put my son at ease when we went for the initial evaluation. If you and your family are struggling with communication with one of your kids, I am convinced that you cannot find a better place than Chatting Children.

We have absolutely loved our experience with Chatting Children for speech therapy! We worked with several other speech therapists/practices prior to coming to Chatting Children and our experience here with Julie & Emily has been incredibly easy, enjoyable and really successful! In a relatively short amount of time we have seen significant progress. Family and friends have noticed these improvements as well! Our son is thriving and we are so thankful to Emily for giving us/him the tools to succeed! There aren't enough great things to say about Emily- she is friendly and engaging and so easy to talk with. It's abundantly clear that she not only cares about our son's speech progress, but also cares about his happiness and overall experience during this whole process. Our son loves her and looks forward to coming to his sessions. She is kind and caring and her passion for what she does truly shines through. She is also willing and eager to involve us in her strategy and approach for our son. At the end of each session, she always discusses what was practiced, how we can continue to implement certain exercises at home and she even provides us with additional worksheets, resources and helpful cues to ensure consistency. We highly recommend Chatting Children!

We absolutely love Chatting Children and particularly Julie who has been amazing from the beginning! Julie is patient, kind, and full of positive energy at every appointment. My daughter loves her sessions and her continuous progress with speech improvement and language comprehension is just amazing to us. I would absolutely, positively recommend Julie and her practice to other parents. She is everything we needed and more!

Our child wasn't really speaking at 18-22 months so our pediatrician suggested we start speech therapy. We thankfully found Chatting Children and were able to get an evaluation with Ms. Julie in only a few weeks. After the evaluation we received a full report and Ms. Julie placed us with the amazing Ms. Emily. At first our child was apprehensive/scared but after multiple sessions our child got extremely comfortable and would run to Ms. Emily and forgot we were there. Ms. Emily is a great speech therapist and did a amazing job tailoring different activities to our child's interests. After about a year our child made leaps and bounds and graduated! We couldn't be happier with the results and it has helped our child tremendously.

Bryanna is one of the most impressive pediatric professionals I've ever met! And we've been to SO many providers due to my son's complex health history with oral ties, feeding challenges, allergies and sleep. She is extremely knowledgeable (even beyond the scope of her own specialty), kind, resourceful and takes a truly holistic look at your child. My son was comfortable with her immediately and the office is very inviting. I'm not surprised that she was recommended to me by 3 other providers, and now I'm here to recommend her to everyone else 🙂

Bryanna brings both warmth and wisdom into every room she enters. Watching her presentation was not only informative but deeply engaging. She has a natural ability to connect with audiences in a way that feels welcoming and genuine. I would highly recommend her as a speaker for conferences and events, as she not only shares valuable expertise but also leaves a lasting, positive impression on attendees.

Bryanna and Farah are both amazing at what they do! Bryanna is so extremely passionate about her profession and cares deeply about every person she treats. She has such a big heart and will go above and beyond for her patients. I’m extremely lucky to work with her and to also have her guidance and help with my son. I would highly recommend The Mouth Rehab to anyone looking for speech, myofunctional, or feeding therapy. There is not a better team to work with!

Had an amazing experience with the Mouth Rehab. Bryanna and her team were extremely attentive and available when our son was going through latching issues as a newborn. We were provided amazing tolls to try at home and additional resources as needed. The most amazing thing was how they listened to me as the mom while helping our son with their practices. Can’t say enough good things about the Mouth Rehab!

Working with Bryanna has been such a gift! She has helped us navigate our baby’s "late" tongue tie release when he was 8 months—supporting us before during and after. We just happened to have already been seeing her for my 3 year old speech therapy and it worked out so perfectly for her to see our little one as well. She is so kind and approachable for our 3 yo that he loves going to play with her! And I’ve trusted her judgement so much I brought in my 7 yo who has a high and narrow palate and tongue tie to get her professional opinion on expansion. Overall she’s been a gift and a joy to our family! So grateful we’ve found her and we recommend her to absolutely everyone who needs myo or speech 🤍🤍🤍

It is obvious how much Bryanna cares about her clients! She is incredibly knowledgeable and her care and warmth put both me and my baby at ease. She is patient and encouraging, and with her help, my baby is eating solid foods WAY more successfully than she had been. I'm actually looking forward to (instead of dreading) introducing her to more food. Absolutely recommend!

I can’t say enough wonderful things about this Bryanna and The Mouth Rehab. Bryanna was instrumental in helping us navigate my son’s tongue tie and feeding difficulties during what felt like a very overwhelming time. From the very beginning, the care and compassion we received stood out. She is incredibly knowledgeable and took the time to truly understand my son’s needs, explaining everything in a way that made us feel confident and supported. What meant the most was how she went beyond just the sessions—providing trusted resources outside of the practice and guiding us every step of the way. Even after our time working together ended, she continued to check in on my son’s progress, which speaks volumes about her dedication and genuine care. She was also very flexible with scheduling, which made a huge difference for our family. We feel so fortunate to have found her—truly a blessing in our journey. I highly recommend this practice to any family in need of compassionate, knowledgeable, and thorough support.

We have had the pleasure of working with Ms. Imoni at Little Hands Pediatric Therapy for over a year, and we are incredibly grateful for the care and dedication she has shown our 8-year-old son. From the very beginning, she took the time to truly understand Landon—his strengths, his challenges, and his unique personality. Ms. Imoni provided thoughtful insight into areas where he needed support, including some we had not previously recognized. She consistently developed appropriate, targeted plans and activities to address those needs on a weekly basis. Her proactive communication and commitment to collaboration—regularly checking in with our son’s teacher and providing us with helpful resources and guidance—demonstrate how deeply invested she is in his progress. We could not be more appreciative of her expertise, compassion, and dedication.

We have had an absolutely wonderful experience working with Celine! Her dedication, patience, and guidance have made a world of difference for our son, who has seen a massive improvement in his speech and communication skills during his time with her. She didn’t just work beautifully with our son, but she also provided us with the tools and support we needed to help him at home. We are incredibly grateful to Celine and the entire team for being such an impactful part of his journey!

We had a really positive experience working with Imoni, our OT. She brought such great energy to every session and was incredibly kind and patient with our child. It was clear how deeply she cared. We’re very grateful for the time we spent working together.

My child absolutely loves and looks forward to speech every week. His SLP has done a wonderful job connecting with him and finding common interests to earn his trust and buy-in. As a mom, their office staff is organized and makes everything easy for me too! We love Little Hands!

I cannot recommend Brooke enough as an occupational therapist for my 8-year-old son. From our very first session, it was clear that she is not only highly skilled but also truly passionate about helping children reach their fullest potential.

I cannot express enough gratitude for the exceptional therapy Tyler has received at Progressive Speech Therapy in Ashburn, VA. Pooja and her team of speech-language pathologists have provided consistently outstanding, highly individualized therapy that is both goal-oriented and grounded in evidence-based practices. Progress is measured during each session, allowing for precise adjustments that have supported meaningful growth year after year. As my son’s needs evolved with age, they seamlessly adapted his goals to ensure continued success. Thanks to their expertise and commitment he has far exceeded our hopes, gaining the ability to be understood and truly being able to communicate with his peers and community. Tyler's improved speech intelligibility and language skills has opened his world in ways we never imagined. They also equip families with practical strategies to reinforce progress at home. I wholeheartedly recommend Progressive Speech Therapy—they have given our child one of life’s greatest gifts; the ability to be express their thoughts and be understood.

I count it a blessing that my family found Pooja and her team at Progressive Speech Therapy. We’ve been with the team for a little over 6 months and we have seen great growth in our child's language and speech development. While he still has a long road ahead, the progress is apparent to everyone in his orbit. The team makes a point to explain his condition, provide frequent updates and communicates the plan of action with us and anyone else involved in his care, if requested. We continue to approach his therapy as a community and our little one greatly benefits from this method. I look forward to seeing how he will continue to grow with their care. I highly recommend their services.

So thankful to have found Progressive Speech Therapy! Pooja and her team are extremely knowledgeable, professional, and implement the latest research techniques into their therapy sessions. From the detailed initial eval to the one-on-one therapy sessions, the parent is always kept informed by email progress reports. My granddaughter has made tremendous progress in a short period of time. They truly care about the success of the child.

Progressive Speech Therapy is an excellent choice for kids who need speech therapy! There is a great deal of thought and preparation put into the plan for each child and the therapist they work with. Whether it is a simple issue or a more the difficult case, they are fabulous at what they do! Only the best staff are hired there, and they truly care about those children and their overall well-being. I highly recommend Progressive Speech Therapy!

My child has special needs and we were referred to progressive speech therapy by our previous speech therapist. Pooja Agarwal the owner has put her heart and soul into this place. She explained everything to me about my child’s plan and within few months I could see both his expressive language and receptive language grow. We have been with progressive speech therapy for over 2 years now and I only regret I didn’t start with them earlier. I highly recommend the entire team at Progressive Speech Therapy !!

Sound Mouth is an outstanding resource for orofacial myofunctional therapy (OMT), tongue-tie rehabilitation, airway health, mouth breathing, nasal breathing, swallowing dysfunction, and oral habit correction. Mary Frances Gonzales is an experienced, knowledgeable, and compassionate SLP/ OMT provider and educator who is dedicated to helping patients achieve lasting functional improvements. As an airway focused dentist and tongue tie release provider myself, I can attest to the fact that Mary is an expert at myofunctional therapy, airway-focused care, and tongue-tie support. I highly recommend Sound Mouth for their clinical excellence, personalized care, and commitment to outstanding patient outcomes.

I had my initial evaluation today as a senior adult experiencing chewing problems. MaryFrances was recommended by my orthodontist. I learned so much and MaryFrances is a wonderful person. I look forward to the next 12 weeks of consults. 12 week later: It was strange to find out after 60+ years of happy chewing that I needed to change my swallowing technique in order to eliminate tongue thrust that would undo the orthodontics I just started. I had to faithfully follow the exercises MaryFrances gave to gradually progress to the point where my tongue had the strength, coordination, and flexibility to swallow differently. MaryFrances was kind and competent. She is a rare find.

Sound Mouths is amazing for myofunctional therapy for kids and adults. I refer many of our patients from our airway focused orthodontic dental practice. They are very efficient, professional and practical. The tongue tie release process has never been easier!

My daughter has been going to Sound Mouths for myofunctional therapy to help correct her tongue thrust. Our orthodontist noticed the tongue thrust when we went in for our initial visit and recommended fixing that before beginning orthodontics. We found Sound Mouths and have been so happy with them. We did our evaluation and therapy with Shannon. The evaluation was so thorough and specific to what my child needed. Shannon has been wonderful and encouraging to my daughter during this entire process. She gives great tips and tricks to work on at home and if you follow the program you can see amazing results. I highly recommend them!

My son had a great oral habits/ myofunctional evaluation experience with Mary Frances. She is thorough, intuitive, knowledgeable and is root-cause driven, while being sweet and having great bedside manner. Looking forward to my son’s growth and progress. Thank you Mrs. Mary!

I am so thankful I found Elaina at Sound Mouths. The exercises she provided helped my tongue both relax and get stronger. Myofunctional therapy is amazing. Elaina is incredibly knowledgeable and taught me so much about the importance of tongue posture and all the muscles around the mouth. She is also the best cheerleader!

We were recommended to Mary Francis by Dr. Felix Liao for myofascial therapy for our daughter. In 3-4 months of therapy, I can see a noticeable change in my daughter's facial features, which are way more balanced. Additionally, the functionality of her eating, breathing, and sleeping is drastically improved. Mary Francis takes pictures and measurements at the beginning and end to validate the visual changes with numbers. We'd highly recommend working with Sound Mouths!

Very unprofessional service. The staff often seem unsure about the information they provide, making communication frustrating and confusing. They schedule appointments only to cancel them at the last minute, with little regard for the patient's time. When they do offer to reschedule, the available appointment options are extremely limited, forcing you to wait even longer. The front desk staff were particularly disappointing. They were unhelpful, lacked professionalism, and showed little concern for the inconvenience caused to patients. I would not recommend this place based on my experience. They need to improve communication, honor scheduled appointments whenever possible, provide more flexible rescheduling options, and invest in better customer service training for their front desk staff. There are many other providers that value their patients' time far more than this one.

I’ve been bringing my son here for a year now with Ms. Sammie. She’s amazing! She is so knowledgeable in speech therapy services, and how to manage younger children. She educated me along the way and provides great advice on how we can support him at home. My son started when he was 3 years old and was diagnosed with a severe articulation delay. I’m so elated to see how much he’s improved since then! During our yearly evaluation he’s now diagnosed as mildly delayed in articulation!!! We’ve come a long way!

We absolutely love this facility! Max has been shown so much love and appreciation since beginning last year. Since we started coming to the actual office, he has loved being with Ms. Mary Kate, and Ms. Jenny! His speech has improved so much and we are truly grateful for the time that has been taken to help him out. 10/10 all around! We are so thankful 😌

I can’t say enough wonderful things about this speech therapy facility! From the moment we walked in, we were welcomed with kindness and professionalism. The staff is incredibly patient, attentive, and truly dedicated to helping each clients Ms. Darya and Ms. Yasneli take the time to understand individual needs and create personalized strategies that make real progress possible. Their sessions are engaging, encouraging, and filled with positivity. My son is now talking complete 3 words sentences and it’s able to comunícate likes and dislikes and talks alot. I highly recommend this facility if you want to see a big improvement in your child speech.!

Amazing just one word to describe both of my son’s therapist Mary-Kate and Megan are absolutely incredible! I just have a few weeks in and I’m all ready seeing my son speak more freely! Just saying "Good Morning" with out me telling him to say it! I’m just so thankful! 🥹 thank you !

If I could give 6 stars I would! My son has been coming here for 5 years and has seen several different therapists in that time (mostly Alicia and she's amazing). The admin staff and therapists are kind, helpful, friendly and knowledgeable. The office space is bright and welcoming with easy parking. I love that my son can work on all aspects of communication and social skills while being accepted and loved.

My daughter made significant progress in her articulation in just a few months. She loved working with Miss Shea. Shea's energy is contagious and she makes the session fun for everyone. Shea tracked my daughter's progress well and responds quickly via email. Scheduling and billing with the admin staff was also a smooth process.

I highly recommend CSTC! Both our boys had a speech delay. In a short period of time with CSTC, both boys were able to catch up to their age group. If you met my boys today, you would have never thought that they had any speech issues. It was truly incredible. I highly recommend Ms. Caroline. Her expertise is amazing!

My children have attended CSTC for almost 3 years. The staff is friendly and professional. The new location is convenient and modern. Highly recommend.

Have been going here for about 6 months and have seen so much progress with my little one. He loves seeing Ms Leah every week and looks forward to his sessions every time.

My grandson has made significant progress. He has PT,OT, & speech therapy.

My toddler has made incredible progress in his speech development and overall communication skills by attending this practice regularly.

Grace H. Park has ethical issues and does not do what is best for the patient but to try to keep the patients to her practice. Stay away from this speech therapy if you want a fair assessment and treatment for your kids.
