Janeze SantiagoTrustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. Ms.Mackenzie worked with my daughter Ivelisse from the ages 2-5. Words can not express how extremely grateful I am for her services. She is the most patient and thoughtful therapist I have worked with to this day. My daughter still mentions her and misses her. Watching my daughter grow and improve with each meeting felt truly special. I am so happy my daughter had the opportunity to work with her. I highly recommend her to anybody who is interested in her services. Ms.Mackenzie if you’re reading this just know you are deeply appreciated for everything. My daughter wouldn’t have blossomed the way she did if it wasn’t for you! Kristen WileyTrustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. Wonderful experience with Mackenzie - she is very kind, thorough, and joyful. My daughter needed help with her “r” sounds and Mackenzie had all of the tools available! Huge improvement after only a few sessions. We still use the tools on a daily basis. Very flexible with scheduling. I would highly recommend her services. My only wish was that I would have signed with her sooner instead of thinking speech through school would be enough! Can’t say enough positive things - thanks Mackenzie! Andrea VosburghTrustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. We were referred to Mackenzie for speech therapy for our son, age 2 years, who was saying very few words. From the start she made him feel very comfortable during sessions, connecting with his interests and adapting to his attention shifts. He was always so happy and excited to see "Miss Kenzie"! She personalized her approach to exactly what he needed to work on, and gave us specific, concrete techniques to help encourage his use of language between sessions, which were very effective! She pivoted between working with him at home and at daycare to ensure that he had support and consistency across both environments. He has made incredible progress working with her over the last few months. At 3 years, his vocabulary is large and constantly growing, and he is increasingly speaking in larger phrases and sentences and singing songs. I am thrilled to see him able to share so much more of his personality. We are incredibly grateful for Mackenzie's expertise and support, and would absolutely recommend her for any child who needs help with speech/communication! allison vetterTrustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. We couldn’t have been luckier to find Mackenzie! We began seeing an improvement with our son right away and he continued to grow week by week. She was wonderful for us as parents to work with and even better, our son would get so excited when we told him she was coming which only made us feel better about working with her! We would definitely (and have) recommend her to anyone in need of speech services! Katharine OttoTrustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. Mackenzie has been a wonderful partner in helping my daughter to learn and grow. She is a strong advocate for her clients and we are incredibly grateful for her comprehensive work in creating a plan best suited for her. She collaborated with preschool teachers and scheduled sessions both in school and at home to maximize impact. We cannot recommend her highly enough! Amol WaghTrustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. We have been absolutely thrilled with the speech therapy services provided by Mackenzie Frees (Frees Speech and Language Therapy). Her dedication and expertise have made a remarkable difference in our child's development. From the very first session, it was clear that she goes above and beyond her role to ensure the best outcomes for her clients. Her approach is not only professional but also incredibly joyful and cheerful, making each session something our child looks forward to. She has a unique ability to connect with children, creating a safe and encouraging environment where they can thrive. Her careful and prompt service ensures that every concern is addressed immediately, and her innovative techniques keep our child engaged and motivated. What truly sets Mackenzie Frees apart is her commitment to going beyond the standard expectations. She provides personalized strategies and resources that have accelerated our child's progress. Her passion for her work is evident in every interaction, and we are so grateful for the positive impact. We highly recommend Mackenzie Frees to any parent seeking exceptional speech therapy services. Her cheerful demeanor, careful attention, and innovative methods make her an invaluable asset for child's speech improvement! DreaTrustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. I cannot begin to express how incredible our experience has been with Frees Speech Therapy! My son is nonverbal and has learned so much to help him learn to better communicate. From learning to pronounce letters and sounds, to understanding how to teach my son in a way he's more receptive to, even I have learned so many new techniques and learning strategies to better assist him! The level of positivity and love for what she does, coupled with her knowledge and understanding of her field and her level of care, has taught my son and I both so much. Learning to be a better teacher and advocate for my child is not something I thought I'd learn more about from our speech therapist. 100 out of 10, would definitely recommend Frees Speech. Frees Speech, thank you so much for all you do! We are so grateful to have been on this learning journey with you and wish you well, always! Jessie RiegerTrustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. Ms. Kenzie began working with our daughter when we became concerned about her speech development, particularly because her baby babbling had stopped. After more than a year and a half of sessions with Ms. Kenzie, our daughter has made tremendous progress. Now we can hardly get her to stop talking! Ms. Kenzie was incredibly sweet and gentle with our shy daughter, who quickly warmed up to her. She took the time to understand our daughter’s interests and tailored her strategies to fit our routines and preferences, which greatly contributed to our daughter’s language development. Ms. Kenzie is always ready to answer our questions about language development and provides us with practical strategies that we can easily incorporate into our daily lives. We truly appreciate her open communication and flexible scheduling. Before writing this review, I asked my daughter what she enjoys most about her time with Ms. Kenzie. She enthusiastically mentioned playing farm and swinging outside. It’s clear that she has so much fun with Ms. Kenzie that she often doesn’t realize how much she is learning. Mary MaxsonTrustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. Mackenzie is amazing! She has been working with my son for almost a year and a half and he has made so much progress. We have always been so impressed with Mackenzie’s ability to work with our son’s special needs and my 4-year-old just adores her. Mackenzie makes learning fun and engaging and my son never feels like his speech lessons are work. Mackenzie is so pleasant to work with, is very accommodating – going between home and my son’s daycare and I would highly recommend her. It’s so clear how much Mackenzie cares about her clients. [UPDATE] - Mackenzie continued to work with my son up until he went into Kindergarten and his speech advancing so much is what really made him ready to go into kindergarten at 5. He is such a happier kid now that he is able to communicate and be understood. He uses his words well, often, and is annunciating better and better every day. Without Mackenzie's help over these last years, I would have likely kept my son an extra year in daycare, and he is just thriving now in his school-aged program. Thank you, Mackenzie! Destiny ATrustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. MacKenzie is great!! Not only did my daughter love having her sessions and called her teacher, they built a adorable relationship over the time of her sessions. MacKenzie knows exactly what my daughter needed help on, give fun practice resources and was a good listener for when my daughter had stories to share with MacKenzie. I definitely recommend her services 👌 MacKenzie is also on top of communication 👏Google rating score: 5.0 of 5, based on 43 reviews
