Testimonials | The Social Communication Connection

Since 2016, we've been on a mission to help children and families feel safe, loved, and respected throughout the evaluation and therapeutic process. We are so grateful to the families like those below who invited us to share their journey. There is no higher honor than to be trusted to nurture the growth of a child, and we are so grateful to the SCC families for sharing their children with us.

Michelle McFarlin MS, CCC-SLP

"Michelle and her team at SCC have been such a blessing to our family! When we met with her to discuss our concerns about our daughter, she was warm, welcoming, and incredibly knowledgeable. Since that day, Michelle has supported us every step of the way. She goes above and beyond to make sure my daughter receives the best care possible, as well as ensuring that our entire family feels supported. In this day and age, it's rare to find a therapist who spends so much time outside of formal therapy sessions connecting with parents, teachers, etc. and Michelle is one of those therapists. Most importantly, we can tell that she loves our daughter like one of her own - and as a parent there is nothing more reassuring than that!" -E's mom

Michelle McFarlin MS, CCC-SLP

"If your child is in the hands of Michelle McFarlin, everything is going to be okay! Michelle is discerning, loving and the consummate professional. Her team is equally capable and caring. We have been through a number of therapists in Dallas and would recommend Michelle a thousand times over. Without hesitation, I can refer friends to Social Communication Connection because they are quick to do what is in the best interest of your child, even if that means they are not the right people to help. They have connected our family to a number of professionals in Dallas, and we have seen immeasurable growth in our child under their influence." -I's mom

Michelle McFarlin MS, CCC-SLP

"I love SCC! They employ the most kind, compassionate and knowledgeable SLP's. My daughter has made immense improvement since we began; it's incredible to see! The director Michelle has also helped me navigate the confusing web of services for my autistic child, and SCC partners with our other therapists to assure we're working collaboratively toward the same goals! Would recommend to any parent whose child is speech delayed for any reason." -C's mom

Annie Grant Jamison, MS, CF-SLP

"Annie has gone above and beyond to creatively tailor her speech therapy approaches to meet our daughter's needs and engage her in therapy. As a result, our daughter's speech has blossomed!" -V's mom

Annie Grant Jamison, MS, CF-SLP

"Annie is so patient, sweet, and charismatic. As well as extremely intelligent and knowledgeable in her field. We feel so lucky that she is our son's speech therapist!" -J's mom

Annie Grant Jamison, MS, CF-SLP

"Annie was a lifesaver for our family as we navigated the first year of our son's autism diagnosis. She provides him with in-classroom support and one-on-one sessions and is part of the amazing team that runs his weekly social communication classes and summer camps. She is friendly, kind and patient and takes the time to provide helpful feedback, respond to questions and bond with our son. The post-diagnosis phase was scary, but Annie was a ray of sunshine in that process." -C's mom

Meg Martin MS, CCC-SLP

"We are so lucky to have Meg as an integral part of our daughter's team! She is kind, caring, and incredibly knowledgeable. She has supported my daughter in countless ways and truly cares about her. Meg also goes above and beyond to support the families of her clients - whether through conversations before or after therapy sessions, phone/zoom calls, or email. It's such an amazing feeling to know that you have the best people supporting your children!"

Alexandra Runyan MS, CCC-SLP

"Alex is truly one of a kind! She has such a special connection with our daughter and has helped her to grow in immeasurable ways! Alex has taken so much time to get to know our daughter and our family over the past year. She celebrates the victories with us and supports us through the challenging moments as well. She puts so much extra time and energy into our daughter/family and never seems to think twice about it. Getting the autism diagnosis has been an incredibly overwhelming process for our family and having Alex on our team has given us so much comfort and hope along the way!"

Alexandra Runyan MS, CCC-SLP

Alexandra Runyan MS, CCC-SLP

"Ms. Alex is so sweet with my son and works well with his speech needs. He has improved so much in the last 3 months and she always takes time to explain what they did in their session and follow up with an email so I know what to work on and ask him. We love SCC." -C's mom
