Wow. There is not enough wonderful things I can say about Rosie and the ladies at November and Associates. Our daughter came to November and Associates at the age of 3 nonverbal with manipulative behavior. Fast forward almost 16 years later and she is a product of the miracle work that is done here. Miss Meghan Karen and Rosie thank you for everything youve done for our girl and thank you to all the ladies in the office who greet our daughter with a smile and answer all of her one million questions she has. Everyone at November and Associates is so positive kind and most importantly they care about your child. Rosie and the Therapist here are a blessing.

My 2.5 year old goes here and when he started he was only saying 2 words at only a year and half when he should have been saying more. Before I got him started I messaged her my concern and we were able to get him in for a consultation. He has been there for almost a year now and has made so much improvement. Hes now up to 12 words verbally. 4-6 words in sign language and he has learned how to communicate through pictures as well for what he wants. All the girls in the office is also very very nice. My child is very hesitant with new people and doesnt go up to allot of people. He will go up to all the girls with a big hug and hes gets so excited when he sees the director Mrs Rosie. He absolutely loves it there. He also always has the biggest smile whenever they bring him out to me after therapy. Would definitely recommend them

Miss Rosie and the wonderful therapists at November and Associates have changed our life. Rosie and the ladies in the office have gone about and beyond for our daughter. There is not a more compassionate person than Miss Rosie. We are forever grateful for everything this office had done for our girl for the past 16 years.

I have a son who has been with these guys for about a year and he has started to improve by leaps and bounds since hes started. Rosie and the staff here really put all their effort and love into teaching and helping all their therapy patients. Note that there may be a wait list for them but it was so worth getting on the list to have my son get the care and help he needs and deserves.

I cant tell you how many times I called and left voicemails and was instructed to send a text message only to get the run around and never given a direct answer for an appointment or follow up on a call back. Very unprofessional Having a speech delayed toddler that needs assistance requires a response in a timely manner and this organization failed to do just that. Waste of time getting a referral and attempting to connect with this group.Update to business response 101023I actually have the text msgs showing you never responded saying your practice was full. So now I can add dishonesty to reasons as to why your business is unprofessional.

I rarely write reviews but if I could give my interaction with this business zero stars I would. Dont bother wasting your time just go somewhere else.

Let me start by saying all the therapist are really friendly and great with the children. Our therapist is amazing I honestly cannot say enough good things about Mrs Meghan. My son when he first started going to November and associates had maybe a 10 word vocabulary and hardly any functional language or listening skills. 6 months later and Im having full on conversations with my child and he listens to me better than ever. I highly recommend this place for any parent.

Frequently Asked Questions
Speech therapy is almost always recommended for autistic children since many people with autism have difficulty with social communication. Even if a child is very verbal and says a lot of words, they might need to work on communication skills like:
responding to questions
starting or ending conversation
changing conversation topics
using gestures like pointing
understanding other people's body language
Speech therapy is a big focus in early intervention for autistic children and is usually the starting place for recently diagnosed kids. There is a critical period in the brain for language development and so, it's really important to teach language and communication skills as early as possible, especially if there are any delays in that area. Your child will learn effective ways to communicate which will help them grow into more independent and confident individuals.
It might be obvious when a child struggles with speaking —they are very quiet, say only a few words, or don't speak at all.
Spot speech and language delays like a doctor here.
The goal of speech therapy is to help your child communicate effectively with other people across all environments. This may take the form of using gestures, simple signs, verbal speech, and Augmentative and Alternative Communication (AAC).
Some other common things speech therapists can help with:
Nonverbal skills, such as signs or gestures
Forming speech in a clearer way
Communicating thoughts and feelings clearly
Understanding and responding to questions
Discerning facial expressions and their corresponding emotions
Noticing and understanding body language
Feeding and swallowing
Stuttering
The occupational therapy process includes an OT evaluation before care starts. Here are the four steps your family can expect when starting occupational therapy:
Complete OT evaluation. An occupational therapist first identifies your child’s strengths and needs through a thorough OT evaluation, also known as an OT assessment or screening. You’ll answer questions about your child’s skills, and your child will most likely demonstrate their skills via hands-on activities with the therapist. Evaluations can last 30 minutes to a few hours.
Approve OT plan. The therapist develops a care plan with individualized goals and customized interventions based on your child’s needs. You can also share any specific goals or concerns before approving the OT plan.
Start therapy sessions. The therapist works directly with your child and your family, using various strategies and exercises to systematically improve areas of limitations and to build upon a child’s strengths. Some exercises your child might participate in are animal walks, obstacle courses, and therapy swing activities. Your family may learn strategies for supporting your child’s individualized needs at home, such as ways of supporting emotional regulation and sensory processing. The therapist may also recommend tools and techniques to use at home, in the community, or in the classroom to help your child succeed.
Monitor your child’s progress. Parents and caregivers can expect ongoing progress monitoring and communication to ensure the child is achieving their short and long-term goals.
Occupational therapy can also be provided virtually via telemedicine. Virtual therapy is a great option for families in rural areas who may not have access to in-person services, or for families who prefer to have therapy in their child’s home.
Virtual OT allows the opportunity for increased caregiver participation and understanding of a child’s strengths, areas of improvement, and generalization of skills in the child’s home environment. Virtual therapy also provides increased opportunities for caregiver and family education to support the child and the family based on each family’s needs.
