"Kaitlin was a wonderful therapist for my two-year-old son. She was also wonderful by the way she taught me how to continue improving his skills at home... She is definitely a fantastic therapist, and I’m extremely thankful for her services. My son also felt very comfortable with her, as he quickly trusted her and cooperated with her! I would definitely recommend her to families whose little ones struggle with speech delay. Thanks Kaitlin!!"
"I highly recommend Kaitlin for speech therapy. After working with Kaitlin, our family saw great improvement at home with our son's intelligibility, and also with his patience and flexibility. He is more willing to express his own ideas and speak up for himself when he’s playing with his big brother. It was incredible to hear him have his first conversation with a stranger where he was completely understood without our help! After every session, Kaitlin would talk about what our son worked on to help us understand how to help him at home with his sounds and skills. She recommended books to our family and gave us helpful language to talk to our son about abstract ideas like focus and attention. She also worked closely with our son's school and kept them updated on his progress. They were very impressed by her work with our son, her progress reports, and her level of professionalism. At every point, Kaitlin went beyond what we expected in a speech therapist.
Kaitlin is a skilled speech therapist, but best of all, our son absolutely loved his sessions with her. He couldn't wait to go play with his friend Kaitlin every week!"
"My son, who is 9-years-old now, was identified at the age of 7-months as having a rare chromosomal deletion. He has a very complex set of diagnoses (including anxiety, ASD and Ataxic CP) and have been receiving a wide variety of interventions since he was a baby. We live in the SF Bay Area and have had access to amazing professionals, and hundreds of hours of therapies. Kaitlin Thompson was not only one of the most knowledgeable, well trained and creative, professionals we encountered in our journey; she is also probably the most insightful and compassionate therapist my son ever had. My son is very unique and a very challenging child to work with. Kaitlin was able to connect with him in ways that no one else was able to do before, and the results were amazing. I am a speech therapist myself with almost 20 years of experience, and I know how hard it is to bond with children like mine, and truly understand their needs. I was blown away by the amazing combination of professional skills and personal qualities Kaitlin brings to the therapeutic environment, supporting both the children she works with and their families as well. I cannot recommend Kaitlin enough. We are very grateful we had the opportunity to have her as my son’s therapist, and the Reno area should feel incredibly fortunate to have her now!"
