TESTIMONIALS
“Emily is truly an incredible speech therapist! From the very first session, she created such a warm and welcoming environment that my son, Michael, absolutely adored her—he would literally run to her every week. Under her care, he made unbelievable progress. Before working with Emily, he struggled to put more than two words together, but with her patience, expertise, and encouragement, he was soon speaking in full sentences.
Not only is she amazing during sessions, but she also goes above and beyond by checking in on her patients, showing how much she genuinely cares. I recommend her to everyone I know—if you’re looking for a speech therapist who is kind, skilled, and truly invested in her work, Emily is the best!”

“We came into feeding therapy feeling both overwhelmed and defeated. Our 3-year-old son has significant sensory challenges and a very limited list of safe foods, and mealtimes had become stressful for our family. Then we started working with Emily and things began to shift.
Emily has a remarkable way of making our son feel understood and safe. She never pushes him beyond what he can handle, yet she inspires him to be brave. She brings so much joy and creativity into feeding — from taking “dinosaur bites” and “bat bites” to turning cheese and snacks into golf carts and golf balls to match his interests. She made food fun instead of intimidating, which has been a tremendous breakthrough.
With her support, he is not only trying more foods, but he’s eating more throughout the day and gaining confidence at the table. Most of all, he absolutely adores her — she is truly the highlight of his week.
We are deeply grateful for Emily’s compassion, skill, and heart. She has made a meaningful difference in our son’s relationship with food and in our family’s daily life. We cannot recommend her highly enough.”

“We could not be more appreciative of Emily through Thrive of New England for helping us navigate our son’s tongue tie. Emily is knowledgeable, professional, and kind. She was able to explain his tongue tie and how it impacts him currently and the potential future impact it could have on him as well. She thoughtfully came up with daily exercises and stretches that will benefit our son during his tongue tie procedure and lead to a smoother recovery. She always made herself available when questions came up throughout the entire process. I would highly recommend Emily and Thrive of New England to anyone looking for speech services and lactation or feeding services. Our family is so lucky to have worked with her!”

“There aren’t enough words to describe how much we LOVED our experience working with Emily! My son saw her for speech, and looked forward to going every week…not to mention the improvements we saw in a short time!! She made the sessions fun and productive at the same time! As a parent, she was so enjoyable to talk to and get feedback from! We feel so lucky to have worked with her!!”
