  • I'm so pleased with the help we've received both in person and via videoconference.

    “I found Inspire Connections Therapy through the Meaningful Speech registry. I was looking for a Gestalt language therapist for my autistic son. I'm so pleased with the help we've received both in person and via videoconference. Our therapist, Lauren, has gone above and beyond to make my son feel comfortable and meet him where he's at. She's helped me to learn how best to support his language development, and he's making great progress!”

    - Renee M., Parent
