“Metropolitan Speech & Language Center has been an absolute gift to our family. When our son first started therapy, he was barely speaking in full sentences and was incredibly shy, often avoiding eye contact and struggling to express even basic needs. Within just a few months of working with Sarah, we began to see real transformation - not only in his speech clarity, but in his confidence, social engagement, and willingness to participate in conversations. Now, a year later, he’s telling stories, initiating playdates, and even raising his hand in class to share ideas. His teachers and extended family have all noticed the change. What makes Sarah exceptional is her ability to connect deeply with children - she meets them exactly where they are and helps them believe in themselves. Her sessions are the perfect mix of fun and focus, and the way she tracks progress and adjusts her approach is both professional and intuitive. We went from feeling overwhelmed and unsure to feeling supported, hopeful, and proud. Sarah didn’t just help our son find his voice - she helped him love using it.”
