Spotlight: 2022 Therapist of the Year!

Spotlight-2021-Therapist-of-the-Year

Saul Tercero and Annette Barron

Announcement

New Beginnings has selected Saul Tercero and Annette Barron as our Therapists of the Year for 2022!

About Saul Tercero

Saul chose his field after personally receiving occupational and physical therapy services following a leg injury. He grew interested in the profession and that personal experience fueled his passion to become a therapist. Saul was inspired to work with pediatrics after two pediatric rotations. He fell in love with pediatrics and has remained working with children ever since.

About Annette Barron

Annette’s family has all worked in the medical field, and she knew she wanted to do the same. It was not until she volunteered with a speech-language pathologist many years ago that she realized that speech pathology was the field for her. She watched in awe as the Speech-Language Pathologist rehabilitated patients and helped to give them back their voice and sense of identity.

Proven Speech Therapy Strategies

Our 4 Step Process to Overcoming Speech Impediments

 

STEP 1: Evaluation

During our initial appointment with your child we take the time to thoroughly evaluate their levels of speech and language. The results of the state approved comprehensive testing is tabulated and compared to the standards of speech for children your child’s age. We can perform our evaluation of your child in English or in Spanish depending on your child’s dominant language.

STEP 2: Diagnosis

Based on your child’s results during the comprehensive testing, our certified Speech Therapists diagnose your child’s speech and language condition. After the evaluation, the Speech Pathologist will share the diagnosis with you and answer all your questions regarding the treatment of your child’s condition.

STEP 3: Individualized Goals

Once the Speech Therapist has evaluated your child and has determined the diagnosis, a thorough report is prepared with all the Therapist’s findings and a plan of care is developed specifically for your child. This plan of care is sent to your child’s pediatrician for his/her review and approval.

STEP 4: Treatment

Depending upon your child’s severity and their individualized plan of care, your child may require an hour of therapy once or twice a week for three to six months. This therapy can be provided in English or in Spanish depending on your child’s dominant language. At the end of the period, your child is re-evaluated to determine progress and the therapy cycle begins again. This process continues until your child’s testing indicates that they no longer need Speech Therapy.

Our son has been going to New Beginnings since February of this year and we have seen tremendous improvement. He loves his Speech therapist Ms. Janette! She is kind, patient and always enthusiastic about his progress. She is the first person outside of his family that he has taken a liking to and it’s comforting knowing he looks forward to his sessions. He has reached many goals with her, one being; signing for “more” and “music”, making animal sounds, and follows direction. He has come a long way in such a short amount of time and we are pleased with progress. We hope to continue.Continued…He also began OT with Brigitte the beginning of July of this year and this has made a big impact on him. We had seen an improvement when he began with Speech Therapy and 5 months later when he began OT he was meeting new milestones all over again! 🙂 Brigitte is sweet, caring and makes it known that she has big goals for our little one. She is enthusiastic about his progress and it goes without saying there is passion. He warmed up to her immediately after their first session and he looks forward to their sessions as well. We go out of town quite often and they are also very accommodating in scheduling his make up sessions.There was a schedule change just recently and he has been seeing Bertha for OT for the time being and she has been a delight as well! She is very knowledgeable and has a plan set for him and we can’t wait to see what new things he will learn in this time. :)Thank you all! (Janette, Brigitte & Bertha)-MB

We’re fairly new in town & both of my sons need speech therapy & occupational therapy. I’m so thankful that we were referred to New Beginnings. Audrey, the speech therapist, is so sweet, kind, and helpful! I can already tell a difference in my oldest’s speech. Brigitte, who is our OT, has helped my son significantly! He has a lot of fun during his therapy sessions and I can notice an improvement in his fine motor & gross motor skills. I highly recommend this place! 🙂

We love New Beginnings, my son is going for speech therapy with Celeste, she is patient, fun, and engaging. My son loves going to his speech therapy every week. He has improve and still improving, he is starting to pronounce consonants with his vowels, and has gotten alot more confidence with other words, and numbers. At Headstart they have notice our son improving in his speech from just making noises to actually saying words and sign language! Celeste has been a blessing for our son, really recommend New Beginnings, they work with your schedule, and the sooner the better to start speech therapy! Never too early

Since my son started attending New Beginnings in August 2023 for Speech Therapy, I saw significant improvement in his development. Thanks to my sons Speech Therapist Ms Gabby. My son is 22 months old and he started showing interest in communicating, socializing and interacting with other children. Each week he is excited to go to Therapy and learn. I can't wait to hear him talk. Thank you Ms Gabby. 😊My son started occupational therapy in September just one month ago and already I start seeing improvements, Thanks to Ms Bertha 😊

New Beginnings is the best. Ms. Celeste has been an excellent Speech–language pathologist with my toddler Helen. For the past 8 months, my daughter has reached her goals and is able to communicate better with her family. My daughter went from just making sounds to now clearly saying words communicating me what she wants and needs. My toddler is always so happy to see Ms. Celeste and Helen is always received with smiles by her therapist and front desk staff. We love them all, highly recommend.

Approximately about two and half years ago my wife and I were introduced to the world of autism. My first born son, Oscar Daniel appeared to show symptoms associated with autism. The first emotion I can remember was fear above all. A sense of discomfort and vulnerability at the same time. Wishing I could swap minds with Daniel so he could grow up without any obstacle or challenge at all. Through our research and patience God directed us to New Beginnings. It is here that we met Rachel Gonzalez and Michael who have both been what I can only describe as Angels to help guide Daniel and us toward his progress. Rachel Gonzalez has gone above and beyond for Daniel who has had tremendous progress. She has coached my wife and I in which ever way possible in order for us to be able to calm him down, get him to understand and communicate a lot better. We will be forever thankful for them and will make sure Daniel never forgets who helped us in his early years of life. I share our experience with anyone who could feel scared, worried and anxious for help. This is the place for you and your loved one.

5 Stars! Our son received Occupational Therapy services at the Zaragoza office from Jon. He was a God send for our little guy. Jon was very patient with him and always encouraged him. Our son is a completely different kid now. He's extremely confident and is soaring academically.
