Big Apple Speech Therapy, LLC - Susie Appleman

We loved Big Apple Speech for both our kids! Susie went above and beyond our expectations and treated our family as her own. She took the time to work and support our kids in the exact way they needed. It’s not a one-size-fits-all, but she made the therapy specialized and personalized for each kid for each of their unique challenges. We are forever grateful for Susie’s talents and services!! She truly is one of the best!! Read more >

I have really enjoyed my experience with Susie Appleman at Big Apple Speech Therapy. I have had an open bite and a lisp my whole life. As an adult I thought fixing this would be difficult however Susie made the process super simple. With braces and speech therapy I have been able to change the way I speak and my bite longterm. Thank you for everything! Read more >

Susie was an absolute pleasure to work with! I was nervous about starting treatment, but Susie took time to answer all of my questions and make sure I felt comfortable with our treatment goals.
Therapy sessions were quick and effortless, and sticking with Susie’s plan delivered results far beyond what I thought was possible. Especially in such a short amount of time!
I would highly recommend Susie to anyone in need of speech therapy. Read more >

My son has had trouble with saying his Rs for many years. Working with Susie helped him to finally be able to articulate words with Rs. I recently ran across a video of him speaking 2 years ago and I was floored at how far he has come. Sometime as a parent the change is hard to see when you are with them everyday. Susie was outstanding at working with him consistently to improve his speech. In addition, he also struggled with swallowing pills, even a very small one. After working with Susie, we are finally done buying liquid medicine! She is amazing and I can’t recommend her enough!! Read more >

Susie is the best! She was super knowledgeable and experienced. She is also hilarious :) Read more >

Our son struggled w reading and we thought it was because of COVID schooling; there were other issues too. But, we had “explanations” for each of the “issues”. We got more concerned when he wasn’t growing out of these things and we were hearing dyslexia and ADHD. I had some familiarity w adenoids and started researching, finding “Child Sleep Apnea”, which I became convinced our son had. After x-rays, we confirmed our son had a moderate to severe blockage which was disrupting his sleep at night. His adenoids were removed eight months ago and the transformation and been remarkable.

Susie Appleman is the best! She’s so great with kiddos and really meets kids where they’re at. Her instructions and home exercises are well targeted and well explained and she keeps it simple.
We’ve been to other SLP/Myofunctional therapists and she’s by far the best. Read more >

We had a great experience with Susie Appleman at Big Apple Speech. In addition to her expertise in speech therapy, she has an extensive knowledge of facial structures and was able to help us with a variety of other issues - specifically excessive chapped lips and eating/swallowing concerns. Susie was very quick to communicate and very flexible with her scheduling - we really enjoyed working with her! Read more >

Susie was really great. I started seeing her for a tongue thrust issue that I have had all my life and was hesitant to think it could change, but to my surprise I was able to change this habit and no longer have this issue. My orthodontist and dentist were both so pleased. Susie was so supportive and informative. She is professional and also warm and engaging. She helped me understand the process and the exercises made all the difference. Her patience and experience are tremendous and I am happy that the results were so successful. I highly recommend Big Apple Speech Therapy. Thank you Susie! Read more >

I am grateful for Susie and Robin from Big Apple Speech. First, it felt like they loved my baby and were just as eager as I was for her to successfully feed from a bottle. Second, because they were supportive in empowering me to help her along the way. Read more >

My family and I highly recommend Susie. My daughter had a tongue thrust and was beginning to develop a lisp. Our orthodontist recommended Susie and we are so glad she did. Susie is extremely knowledgeable, the exercises she recommends work, and she is kind but firm. My daughter speaks clearly now with no issues and we no longer have to worry about her tongue ruining her teeth. Susie also worked with our son and got him to stop sucking his thumb in less than 2 weeks which was a bonus! Read more >

My experience with Susie Appleman has been so amazing! She has helped me through so many things since having a very in-depth, Frenectomy a couple of months ago! She has so much knowledge and has taught me so many tools to help with learning to swallow correctly and how use use my tongue muscles correctly! I have appreciated her checking in on me and making sure that my tongue is healing correctly. I couldn’t be more pleased with the results of my recovery and it’s because of all that she has done to help me!!!!! I HIGHLY recommend Big Apple Speech Therapy to anyone! Read more >

It was wonderful working with Susie Appleman for our two children’s myofacial and speech therapies. Susie is so great with children and gets them to participate with little effort. Our children made progress so quickly and it was encouraging. Susie was always very flexible with our availability. We will always see Susie in the future for any relevant needs and highly recommend her to others. Read more >

Susie is truly the best! I sought her services from across the country because of how skilled she is. She is thorough and quickly builds rapport with clients. My daughter was always nervous about evaluations, but Susie made her feel at ease. Thank you, Susie! You are truly gifted at what you do. Read more >

We have been so happy with our experience with Susie. After receiving a cookie cutter plan from another establishment and the distinct feeling that they were drawing out the timeline for their own interest and not my son's, I was thrilled to be able to speak with Susie. She listened to our concerns and gave him a complete evaluation and plan made just for him. During the procedure and therapy she was always very easy to contact with questions. His speech has significantly improved and we feel confident moving forward now! Read more >

We have loved Ms. Susie. Our 6 year old needed a tongue and lip tie release and from diagnosis to seeing us for healing and therapy she was a God send. After implementing her stretches our daughter now easily chews and swallows meats she used to store in her cheeks and need to spit out. She’s sleeping with her mouth closed, and not snoring. The BIGGEST thing is the improvement in her quality of sleep. She’s no longer complaining of being so tired and her mood is much better. I underestimated the need for the therapy and thankful we followed through. Read more >

I had a good service because she was very funny and kind and patient with me Read more >

9/10 it’s a great thing, relives tension in my mouth, neck, shoulders, upper and lower back. It’s so much better than it was before the surgery. Adults should do it. It impacts the whole body. Read more >

Suzie is great she helped me so much.
She was also very accommodating with my difficult schedule.
Thanks Suzie. Read more >

She was very encouraging and helpful for me! I learned so much from my time here, and was able to fix the movement of my tongue with exercises. I really liked how energetic and thoughtful she was! Thank you so much! Read more >

I love Big Apple Speech Therapy! Susie Appleman was fantastic with my son and I was amazed at how quickly he progressed. It was so convenient that the company worked with my son’s school so his therapy could be done there each week. My son always looked forward to his speech therapy and Susie was so great about communicating what they were working on and his progress to me. We had a fantastic experience and would highly recommend! Read more >

Susie is such an amazing human and teacher. She has a way with kids and it’s wonderful to watch and learn from her. Not only has my child’s speech improved, her confidence has skyrocketed. She’s so easy to communicate with and fun to be around! Read more >

Rebekah gave Big Apple Speech Therapy, LLC - Susie Appleman an AWESOME Recommendation Read more >

My son has had extreme negative reactions to food since he was in diapers. We tried feeding therapy at a hospital but it wasn’t effective. Our son was able to see an occupational therapist for other issues which helped prepare him for feeding therapy again. When he was ready to learn to eat, Susie helped us get real food on his plate. She patiently helped my 7-year-old learn to chew correctly and swallow. I got to see him eat fruit and meat for the first time in his life. Susie is the perfect blend of tough and funny. My son is really shy and by the end of each session he’d be laughing (and eating) We are so thankful for Susie!! Read more >
