Very Thoughtful with a Caring and Loving Nature
Luna DeCurtis was instrumental in guiding us at the beginning of my son’s speech therapy journey. She was able to give us preliminary advice on my son’s individual needs as well as information on what we might expect from insurance. She is extremely knowledgeable in the SLP field and works with a passion.
Luna is a wonderful person to work with as she’s very thoughtful with a caring and loving nature. I wholeheartedly recommend working with Luna and happily refer her to anyone looking for speech therapy services. ~ C.F.
Luna worked with my daughter for speech therapy both when she was about 4 years old and then when she was 8-9.
The depth of Luna's experience is apparent in the way she is able to tailor her approach based on each child's needs, personality, and progress. Her pacing was excellent and motivated my daughter by helping her feel successful. The support she provides to parents makes implementing practice realistic.
Luna is exceptionally experienced, personable and perceptive.
Not Just a Speech Therapist, but a 'Child Whisperer'
Luna has been my son's speech therapist for 7+ years (since he was 2yr 9mos old). Very quickly she was able to form a special bond with him that persists to this day.
Luna has a special skill for figuring out what each child and family needs. For years she incorporated my other son into her sessions, and when his presence became more of a distraction she was able to seamlessly pivot and stop including him.
We have had sessions at the library, at parks (sometimes with friends, sometimes meeting strangers), at a friend's house, at a pumpkin patch, at a farm, at a bowling alley, in a store, and many more. In these various settings I have witnessed her take stock of a new person or change in situation and, within seconds, come up with a different activity or strategy for the session to incorporate said person/situation.
One of the best things about Luna is that she brings a wealth of experience from years of parenting and collaborating with different kinds of therapists (e.g. OT), and so over time she has picked up knowledge and tips that she incorporates into her sessions. Sometimes I will mention a concern or incident regarding one of my children, and she will provide an insight so profound and impressive.
In summary, if I had to summarize Luna in one sentence, it would be "Not just a Speech Therapist, but a 'Child Whisperer' ". ~ G.O.
Luna Has a Gift For Making Speech Fun
“Luna has a gift for making speech fun! My daughter looked forward to her weekly date with Luna and never felt like something was wrong with her. Not only has her speech improved, but also her overall communication. She is even confident enough to have the main part in her school play and I feel it is thanks to the work she has done with Luna!” ~J.C.
Luna is EXCEPTIONAL!
I’ve had the privilege of working alongside Luna for several years as an occupational therapist, collaborating to support the children we serve in reaching their fullest potential. Luna is a creative, fun, and highly skilled speech-language pathologist with a wealth of knowledge. She continually strives to help each child grow and thrive, always encouraging them to reach the next level. Her passion is evident in every session—she pours her heart into her work, not only supporting the children but also educating and empowering their families.
I’ve also had the opportunity to attend her parenting workshops, which gave me a new perspective on her talents as a lecturer. It was an incredibly valuable experience that prompted meaningful reflection on my own parenting and goals for my children. Over the years, I’ve learned so much from Luna. I frequently incorporate her strategies into both my professional sessions and my personal parenting. - T.P.
Her Teaching Moments Have Had Major Impacts
Like many others, our family has searched for a speech and language therapist who is a good fit for working with our special needs child. We feel blessed to have found a superstar in Ms. Luna. Our child has worked with Ms. Luna in one-on-one sessions as well as group sessions and participated in her joint speech/occupational therapy camps. Both individual and group settings provide different growing and teaching moments that are invaluable to developing language but also enhancing speech and conversational skills for our child.
Ms. Luna looks to not only meet your child where they are at but challenges their current level by looking to where the child is going as well as where the child is currently. Ms. Luna’s approach has helped us as a family move past substantial roadblocks with regards to our child’s speech development that were impassable when working with other vendors. Ms. Luna also gives wonderful feedback as to each session's progress, provides direction for the familial unit to work on at home and in the community and adapts treatment for the individual, instead of asking the individual to adapt to her style of training.
Everything we have experienced is anecdotal and a sample size of one, but we have not regretted any of our time with Ms. Luna. From our very first meet and greet we felt like we finally found a therapist who not only could help us, but wanted to help us. Every interaction with Ms. Luna and our family have been teaching moments that have had major impacts on our child’s speech and language development and we would highly recommend her services to anyone who asks. With profound thanks. - M. & A. T.
Luna Truly Believes in My Son and His Ability to Succeed
The most important and most meaningful thing for me as a parent is that Luna truly believes in my son and his ability to succeed. She challenges all of us to do things differently than what we’re used to, while actively building and fostering an engaging relationship with my son.
It’s very rare that my son warms up to someone so quickly, but a few months in, and he already routinely asks to see her! She does home visits, visits to his occupational therapy clinic and even peer play groups in her backyard that he loves! We’re so thankful to have found her! ~M.G.
Focuses on Identifying and Understanding the Root Cause of Issues
Since the beginning of our journey with Luna. We have seen significant improvements with our son in various areas of speech, knowledge and understanding. We appreciate Luna’s holistic approach, which focuses on identifying and understanding the root cause of issues.
By using this approach, she is providing comprehensive framework for our son to have lasting improvements. Luna provides tools for our whole family to use in our son’s improvements in speech and communication. We are so grateful for everything that she has done. ~A.C.
Her Approach is Different Than Any Others
I first saw Luna at my grandson’s occupational therapy clinic working with another child there. As soon as I saw her and how she worked, I asked the clinic for her information, and the rest is history.
Luna immediately built a connection with my grandson, and we’ve already seen marked improvement in his communication after just the few months that he’s been working with her.
Her approach is different than any others and it’s really made a huge difference in my grandson’s, and all of our lives. ~J.G.
A Compassionate, Skilled Pathologist Who Truly Cares
Since June of last year, Luna has worked with our 5-year-old son, who struggled with speech delay, limited vocabulary, and difficulty expressing his needs.
Her dedication extended beyond weekly sessions with our son to include collaborative guidance for us as parents and his teachers. This approach accelerated his progress way beyond our expectations. Today, his expressive language has blossomed; he articulates his thoughts with growing confidence, connects more easily with peers, and navigates emotions with remarkable stability now that he can communicate his needs.
We highly recommend Luna to any family seeking a compassionate, skilled pathologist who truly cares. -S. & G. C.
What Makes Luna Special is her Complete Approach
Over the past seven years, Luna has been a key part of our family's speech journey. Starting with my oldest when he was just three, she now works with my middle son while keeping an eye (and ear!) on my youngest. What makes Luna special is her complete approach—she doesn't just work on speech sounds but also addresses mouth breathing and other core issues that many therapists might overlook. When we began, my son couldn't say his Rs at all; now he pronounces them beautifully, which has transformed both his speech and his confidence. As a fellow mom, Luna truly understands the different energy levels and personalities of children, connecting with each of my boys in exactly the way they need. Her patience and genuine enthusiasm have created an environment where my children actually look forward to therapy sessions. Luna isn't just our speech therapist—she's become an important partner in our children's development, and I'm deeply grateful for the difference she's made for my boys. -A. L.
Testimonial for Luna – A Life-Changing Speech Therapist:
When our son Mason was 2 years old, he wasn’t speaking at all—not a single word—and he was extremely selective with food, only eating mangoes and bananas. Naturally, we were very concerned. We tried going through our insurance to find a speech therapist, but unfortunately, we didn’t see any progress.
Then one day, I met a kind girl who told me about Luna and shared her contact information. That moment changed everything.
Luna came to our home to observe Mason. She didn’t just jump into therapy—she took the time to understand him and then guided us as parents. She gave us notes, strategies, and explained how we could help him progress ourselves. After just a few sessions, we noticed big changes—Mason began saying words and was willing to try new foods.
We’ve now been working with Luna for three years, and the transformation has been incredible. Mason is talking nonstop, full of energy and curiosity. The improvement is beyond what we imagined.
What makes Luna truly special is that she works with your child and empowers you as a parent. She equips you with the tools, knowledge, and confidence to support your child every day. She’s not just a therapist—she’s a partner in your child’s development.
Luna is the best at what she does. If you're looking for someone who will truly care about your child and help them grow, look no further. She changed our lives, and she can do the same for yours. - LR
Luna is more than a speech therapist to us-she is my “go-to” person
I am the proud mom of Ashton, who was born at just 23 weeks and has faced the world with mild cerebral palsy, a visual disability, and a speech impairment. From the very beginning, Luna has been an essential part of Ashton’s journey-she started seeing him when he was just a little one, focusing not only on building his speech skills, but also on desensitizing his mouth so he could become comfortable with eating, and working tirelessly on his sounds and comprehension.
Our path with Luna hasn’t always been linear; we reconnected in Ashton’s early teen years, discovering we now lived in neighboring cities. Now, at 21, I look back on many years together with Luna, not just in speech and language development, but in community interaction, behavioral skills, and the everyday challenges and joys of raising a child with unique abilities.
Luna is more than a speech therapist to us-she is my “go-to” person for the many situations that arise. She always brings a fresh perspective and intuitive thinking to every challenge, which is what I value most about her. Luna’s support has gone far beyond therapy sessions; she is a steadfast advocate for Ashton, and for me as a mother and a friend.
I am incredibly grateful to have Luna in our corner. Her dedication, creativity, and compassion have made a lasting impact on Ashton’s life and on our family. I truly cannot imagine this journey without her unwavering support and insight.
