Testimonials

Piper G., Colorado

“From the moment you connect with Danielle, you know you have found what you were looking for. Just writing this testimonial gives me goosebumps and makes me tear up thinking of the struggles and joys we have faced with my boys, and I have no idea how I would have done it without her. My twins were diagnosed with Apraxia at age 3 and were non-verbal when Dani (this is what the boys call her since Danielle was so hard to say :)) came into our lives. She not only found a way to connect and see the twins in a way no other provider had, but she also had, and continues to have, a way to make me feel like “I’ve got this.” Beyond being innovative and creative as the most incredible SLP ever, she is a gracious, kind, leader who will change your life in such a way that the struggles of parenting children with speech delays are actually doable. The twins love working with Dani, and they are 7 years old now! She helps with their IEPs, and has even had some amazing ideas with behavior modification and knows her way around SPD and so much more. I could go on and on - just consider yourself lucky that you found her and your search is over and now you can get on with the hard stuff, but she will be with you every step of the way guiding and supporting this journey, I promise.”

“We were so blessed to have Ms.Castle for our son Nicky. He was only 3 at the time and wasn't able to say a word except for "dah, dah" She was so patient and loving with him. She is extremely talented and this is exactly what she was called to do. She pours her heart and soul into her children. Nicky is now 10 and has been in IEPs at his elementary school. I just had a meeting with his IEP teachers and was told he has made the most progress out of his group. He is a confident hard worker and is the first one to raise his hand in class. He talks just like everyone else. He never would be who he is today without Ms. Castle.”

“I met Danielle in the school setting about 10 years ago. I was fortunate to have been able to work with her and learn from her as she helped my 2nd graders with their speech needs. She is knowledgeable and resourceful, and she has the most fitting personality - kind, caring, patient, and really connects well with the kids. Danielle became such a great friend and resource for me, that years later, I reached out to her for support... but this time as a parent instead of as a teacher. Being states apart, she kindly provided phone support to help with my questions on speech development and articulation. She sent me resources and links to better understand age appropriate milestones and expectations. Danielle was eager to help me, and was as enthusiastic as she ever was about the subject. You can sense her passion for what she does. As an educator and a parent, I trust and appreciate Danielle’s knowledge and expertise in speech and language.”

“Danielle has an instant rapport with children. Her gentle nature and focused play put my son with autism at ease from the start. She’s friendly, genuinely interested in the minds of the children, yet very much in control of every session.She had very specific goals, and as soon as a goal was met, Danielle would up the stakes and raise the bar. I never felt I was the one nudging things along, which as a parent is such a relief. Despite his many behaviors and issues with pragmatic, reciprocal and expressive language, he is cognitively very advanced and possesses a wonderful sense of humor, Danielle used both of those things to challenge and engage him.

As a parent it’s not always easy to need a team therapists and teachers and suggestions as to how best to handle your child. At some point you just want to be a mom.  But Danielle brings with her a calm, un-intrusive, can-do energy, that lets you know she is there to support your child and family. Her knowledge and skills are extraordinary, and any family lucky enough to work with her in the future will no doubt feel just as grateful for all she has given.”
