What People Are Saying

  • “My son responded positively to Sarah from the very first session. She made the sessions fun and his speech improved rapidly. Sarah gave us tools to use between sessions that proved very effective, and was always available for questions. She is very knowledgeable and always learning and looking into new ways to improve her therapy sessions. I highly recommend Sarah Sweeney, and we will miss seeing her every week now that my son has "graduated."”

    Nell D.

  • “Sarah is a truly gifted speech therapist.  She connected easily with our introverted son and brought out the best in him during sessions.  She also taught us how to best support him between sessions so we could maximize their time together.  We saw rapid and drastic improvements, and we are so grateful!  Highly recommend!”
