Ascend Rehab Services

"Ms. Ilea has been such a huge blessing to my son and our family. We honestly couldn’t have asked for a better speech therapist for our son. Before she started working with him he was completely nonverbal and solely relied on non verbal communication. After she started working with him not only was she able to get him to start imitating and vocalizing but she was also able to give him a new avenue to communicate which has helped tremendously. Ms. Ilea went above and beyond for our son not only connecting with him but also connecting with me as a mom which was nice. She took the time to hear our concerns, empathize and teach us how to best help our son with speech development and the issues he is facing. Not only that but she was his biggest advocate so he could receive much needed help/resources. We are going to miss her greatly and we wish her the best!"

"My son has been working with Ilea for the past 5 months, and I'm here today to share how much progress he has made, thanks to her. When my son first started speech therapy, he was struggling to communicate. He could only say a few words, and he often had trouble being understood. But Ilea was patient and understanding. She created fun and engaging activities to help my son learn new words and communication skills. I'm so grateful for her hard work and dedication, he has made significant progress. One of the things I appreciate most about Ilea is her ability to connect with my son.She always took time to get to know him and what interests him. This makes the speech therapy sessions more enjoyable for and it helped him to learn more effectively. Thank you Ilea! for everything you have done for our family."

"Our son has a rare neuro condition, “as rare as winning the lotto twice” we were told by doctors. We were blessed with Mary Lou from Ascend Rehab to come in home with our son as his development specialist. She has changed our sons life forever; she was the reason our son beat the odds and opinions of tops doctors in this area. She is an angel. The thought of her love, compassion, and the fight she has for my son is beyond words. Mary Lou will forever be part of our family and forever the reason for of my sons success."

"Seeing our daughter excited about Third grade and even making friends in school reminds us how Ascend services have been life-changing to our family! Our daughter was 3 when she came in for OT and SLP with Ms. Cecelia and Ms. Chris, and Ms. Sheryl. We came once a week for both services and everything we learned from a year and a half at Ascend has helped us get to where we are today. They are so knowledgeable on individual differences and are such a pleasure to work with, every session was a joy and working through problem areas was just a matter of time. There was no task that was too big, and I have not seen better therapy for our daughter anywhere else. Time here was so well spent, thank you so much!!"

"Our family is beyond grateful to have found Ascend, my daughter has received OT and Speech with their amazing specialists for the past four years. During this time we have seen tremendous improvements. Ms. Ilea my daughters Speech Therapist has done an amazing job with expanding her communication while providing parent training. The staff is professional and extremely helpful especially when we converted to private pay. They make our lives a little less stressful. Thank you so much Ms. Illea and the Ascend Team! We hope to continue with you for years to come."
