I have two sons who are diagnosed with autism spectrum disorder. Finding great therapists is hard. When I met Jill and Amanda, I was immediately impressed with their knowledge in speech and occupational therapy. These ladies really know their stuff. They bring together years of experience to create and collaborate for the good of everyone who comes to them for speech and OT services. Their kindness and knowledge cannot be found elsewhere. Jill and Amanda are two vibrant, smart, caring, hardworking therapists. My boys and I love love love them. Jason and Tyler always look forward to come to therapy.

We are incredibly grateful for the transformative impact Ms. Jillian and Ms. Amanda have had on our children. Ms. Jillian has been a guiding light for my daughter, who is neurodivergent, since she was just 2.5 years old. Thanks to her expertise, our daughter has made remarkable strides—she can now balance, run, and jump with two feet, hold writing utensils correctly, and form both upper and lower case letters. Most impressively, she has developed her interoception skills, allowing her to better understand and express her feelings.

Ms. Amanda has been equally exceptional, providing speech therapy for both my son and daughter. Her dedication to tailoring each session to their individual needs through interactive play has made learning enjoyable and effective. Together, these two incredible therapists have helped our children flourish in ways we never imagined possible. We can't thank them enough!

I absolutely loved having Ms. Amanda as my daughter, Bailee’s, speech therapist. When we started with her, my daughter was barely talking and was really shy with other kids. After a couple of months my daughter’s speech was changing and I saw how comfortable she became with Ms. Amanda, Ms. Jill, and the other kids at the office. I could really tell that they both really cared about my daughter and wanted her to be more confident in her speech. At the end of each session, she would let me know everything they did and how she did so I could continue it at home. Ms. Amanda also treated my other daughter kindly, she would include her by getting her stickers, because her sister would get one at the end of every session, and bring her back so the other speech and OT therapists could see her and say hi. They loved going every week and would talk about Ms. Amanda at home and how excited they were to see her again. Here we are, a year and a half later and my daughter is speaking in full sentences and is more confident in being around other kids. I don’t know how I got so lucky to have my daughter be paired with someone like Ms. Amanda, but I am so thankful. The only reason we no longer go to her is because we moved, but my kids miss her so much. We would follow her anywhere if we could. Thanks again!

I had the pleasure of working for 2 great years with Ms. Jillian and she is the best of the best! As a speech and language pathologist, she taught me so much including sensory regulation strategies, fine and gross motor targets, and sensory based feeding techniques. The biggest thing she taught me were the benefits of co-treating. The children we saw together for co-treatment sessions were able to make more progress because so many of their needs and goals were met at once between speech/language and occupational therapy. We were able to collaborate with each other and the families to create well-rounded activities that addressed goals across treatment plans. She is an excellent clinician, a wonderful human, and I am honored to know her!

I am so grateful for the amazing progress my son has made with Mrs. Amanda and Mrs. Jillian. They are patient, understanding, and created a fun learning environment where the two of them do therapy together and I think that is so empowering for all the kids they have in their therapies. I can’t wait for this new chapter to begin and to start over with all of you.

My daughter has been working with Ms. Jillian for quite some time now, and she thoroughly enjoys their sessions together. She's made significant progress in developing her social skills and feels lucky to have had the opportunity to learn from Ms. Jillian. Ms. Jillian has a great way about her. She's sweet, kind, and patient. She's also very knowledgeable about getting to know the kids and finding the best way to help them. She has been a dream to work with!

I have had the privilege of working as a speech therapist alongside Ms. Amanda and Ms. Jillian for the last year. As a young therapist, I've been so lucky to have them to learn from and collaborate with. It's been amazing to watch all of their clients grow in the last year. Thanks to them, I’ve learned so much about the importance of play and how successful play-based therapy can be, especially when the speech therapist and occupational therapist are working together. They both have great relationships with all of their clients and clients' families, while still being professional. I'd urge any prospective client to join the Little Palms family - your child will blossom!

When I first brought my son to Ms. Amanda, he felt frustrated and I felt defeated. As a parent and homeschool teacher, I realized I could not provide all the tools for my son to succeed. Within the first 2 weeks, my son had made significant progress in speech and reading. Ms. Amanda helped me navigate through Orton-Gillingham approach to not only help him with speech but also build his reading skills. She was patient, funny, and just what he needed! We were so blessed to have her and highly recommend.

As a fellow therapist, I’ve always admired Jillian and Amanda’s dedication to providing individualized care to their patients. Children and parents adore working with them for a reason! Their therapy model focuses on delivering services in a child’s natural environment—like your home, the park, the library, and more. This is a game-changer for parents, as they offer highly skilled outpatient services that conveniently come to you. By providing therapy in real-world settings, your child’s goals become not only achievable but sustainable in the environments that matter most.

Jillian has been an absolute godsend for our family. I don’t know how we would have done without her. We started OT when my son was 1 1/2 and having a lot of issues with biting and head butting, along with fine motor skills delays. I was unable to get through to him on my own and after a bad experience with another OT I was reluctant to try again, but I couldn’t be more happy that I did. Jillian was so gentle with him and did not manhandle him like his previous therapist did. She is gentle but firm, which is exactly what he needed. He  improved leaps and bounds over the years with her and I couldn’t be more grateful. I wouldn’t hesitate to recommend Jillian to anyone who was looking for an OT. She’s the gold standard in my opinion.
