The little girl that I nanny has made HUGE improvements in her speech and her willingness to learn new words and sounds. Maria learns things about Leah as an individual to help improve her learning and keep her interested. Maria is great about communicating to me what Leah learned for the day and what we need to practice for the week.

We can’t thank Maria, Susan, and the rest of the Yakos Therapy team, enough for the patience and care they had when working with our son. We have seen him blossom and gain language over the past nine months. They worked with us as the parents in teaching us what interventions to try at home. They helped us understand and work with our health insurance. Thank you.

Love this office. All the staff is very helpful and friendly. They make you feel as if you were part of their team. My kids have been going to see them for seven months and I have seen a huge improvement. The kids actually enjoy going to therapy and always ask when their next session is!

When my son first started with Maria at Yakos Therapy, he was a 2 year old with a vocabulary of a 13 month old. He said 8 words. When I was asked what I wanted from his therapy, I simply said that I wanted to hear my son tell me he loved me too when I tucked him in at night. Through the help of Maria and all the therapists at Yakos, my son has closed his speech gap and is successful in school. He is now 4 and total chatterbox. I know the biggest reason for his success is Maria and her devotion to him and his goals.

Yakos Therapy – where to start? The therapists are amazing, dedicated, and educated! They helped my son from around 18 months till he was 3 years old – patient and educating myself and my husband along the way. My son started speaking and we finally were able to communicate with him and understand his wants and needs. If you have any concerns regarding your child’s development – call them NOW!!!

My twin boys started working with Maria shortly before their 3rd birthday. Being twins they developed more of their own ways to communicate and had no interest in using real words. My boys are now 6 and without Maria I have no doubt they would have been so far behind. Instead their speech is what it should be at six and they did very well in kindergarten this past year. They loved their sessions because Maria made it so fun and always had the best toys. She also does an amazing job of teaching the parents how they can help as well. Highly recommend Maria, she’s the best!
