Teri created a wonderful, loving atmosphere for my son, and a wonderful relationship that allowed him to feel comfortable. Because of that, he got so much out of his sessions. I would recommend Teri to any parent needing speech therapy. D.R.

When I noticed my Kindergarten son having issues pronouncing certain sounds, a friend recommended I contact Ms. Montiel from Talk of the Town Therapy. She worked weekly for a couple of months with my son and in that short time he made significant progress. He loved working with Ms. Montiel, especially playing the speech games she set up for him. The best part was his confidence grew so much that now he feels the need to correct his younger sister’s speech.

Mrs. Melissa Montiel was referred by our orthodontist and we are very happy. She uses practical and age appropriate exercises that can be easily incorporated into my daughter's daily routines. She also tries her best to work around our busy work and school schedules. Mrs. Montiel has helped with my daughter by teaching her how to place tongue in correct position during swallowing and saying "s" and "t" sounds better. I highly recommend her.

I’d highly recommend Melissa and Talk of the Town to anyone who needs speech therapy. We were referred to Melissa by our pediatrician for my 8 year old daughter. She was struggling with her R’s. Melissa was able to work around our schedule and get my daughter in right away to be assessed. Then, we met weekly to work on improving her speech. Melissa is so kind, personable, and professional. She gave us endless tools to work with and had my daughter smiling the entire time (Seriously! She frequently said her face hurt from smiling so much after speech!). Melissa always had games and fun activities ready and even helped with school assignments that required my daughter to speak aloud. We saw improvement quickly and I think it was because speech was such a positive experience for her. As much as we loved the experience, we were happy with how quickly my daughter graduated out of speech (but sad to say goodbye to Melissa!).

"I am so thankful that we have Melissa Montiel in our community. My 8 year old, Kylie, needed speech therapy to correct her "r" sound and a tongue thrust. I was worried that speech therapy would be time consuming, challenging and frustrating for Kylie. I don't think I have ever been more wrong about anything! Kylie loves Melissa. She is a natural with children (and adults!), making them feel comfortable, relaxed and confident from the moment you see her smiling face. It is obvious from the moment you meet her that she hose her profession from her heart. She was able to teach Kylie proper tongue placement for her "r" sound in ONE session. Then it was up to me and Kylie to practice, practice, practice. Melissa gives her students the most fun activities to practice their sounds. Every week it's something different- a game, a fun worksheet, an app to play on the iPad... Our whole family still enjoys playing all her games!! Once I began mentioning to friends that Kylie had started speech therapy with Melissa, the flood of compliments starting pouring in. Friends that had taken their kids to her, teachers and school speech therapists all had glowing reports and agreed that she is the BEST. Her breadth and depth of knowledge in her field is amazing! We are so lucky to have Melissa as a resource for our most precious little people."

I wanted to share about my experience with Melissa at Talk of the Town because I know how much I rely on reviews! From the very first phone call to the end of our therapy time everything here exceeded my expectations! Melissa is a wonder with children, provides thorough and great communication and is patient and wonderful at her craft. This place is warm and nurturing and honestly was a joy to go to each week! If you are looking for a 5 star experience with your child, give Melissa a call!!
