100% of Speech Therapy clients surveyed would recommend CATTS to a friend or family member!
Without a doubt my son's progression is down to Marijke's involvement. I think the best thing about CATTS service is that they value parents and external therapists input and have no problem liaising with outside services (i.e. HSE, Enable Ireland, etc). We have both learned techniques/ mechanisms to increase speech and reduce fustration. Definate drop in NAME's distress.
The progress my son has made over the last year is astounding. Marijke is a fabulous therapist. It is obvious she enjoys her job and cares for her clients. I appreciate the value CATTS places on parent involvement ant think the tips / techniques provided to use at home have proved to be very successful. We are 100% satisfied with the service CATTS provide.
Good cooperation with parents to help special needs kids. Excellent Speech therapy support for kids with ASD.
Social interaction, speech has come on, both expressive and receptive. I'm more relaxed and reassured because I feel supported.
The BEST THING about CATTS is the One to One service, Great Advice and Tips to work on at home!
I am very happy with the service we have received with [Therapist]. After 2 sessions [NAME] had started saying 'more', 'again', 'up', 'down' and is continuing to add new words each week.
Very happy with the attention and detail [NAME] gets at each session. Each session is setup in advance and if a games doesn't go to plan there is always a backup nearby.
I like the no rushing of each session so it can respond to what [NAME] needs on the day. He has opened up so much and has become more confident as time goes on.
"This is a great service, he really looks forward to the therapy sessions."

CATTS work really well with my child's school resource teacher and SNA to insure my child has every opportunity to improve his communication skills.
"My thanks to you and Marijke for the excellent staff and responsive service that you have provided in CATTS."
Large Residential Service Provider
A very professional but friendly and focused to each individual child's needs.
The sessions are fun and she always strives to remember what works for our son down to the smallest details. Our SLT always made sessions fun and engaging but also was able to get the most out of each session which is so important when dealing with intellectual disability.
Very happy with the speech service my son is getting through CATTS. The therapist is working very well with my son and gets the best out of him. Only for this service my son would be getting no speech. I am very grateful.

"Catts Ireland is providing a superb vital service for children"
We've seen improvement from day one. We've also learned a lot from watching her work. My son enjoys his sessions with Marijke, she somehow manages to get a 4 year old to focus for the whole session and have fun while doing it. We're seeing constant improvement.
I am very satisfied with the treatment I got from CATTS. I was a bit apprehensive but the friendly, professional attitude of the therapist put me at my ease. The comparison of my performance at the start of treatment and at the six-monthly follow up showed that my voice had improved both in volume and range. I am more than pleased.
"Nice people, good understanding with asd kids."
Efficient, excellent communication and follow up post classes, excellent advice for further at hone progress.
[NAME] enjoys going to Marijke and I feel the work being done is addressing [NAME]'s needs. We attended other speech therapists in the past and whilst they also helped I think CATTS' way of establishing where [NAME]'s main areas of need are, is very good.
CATTS is an excellent service providing Speech and Language which is highly needed for children with special needs.
"Since starting speech therapy my daughters speech has improved considerably. Her language skills and comprehension have also seen a huge improvement. She is more confident and thrives on the positive feedback about her progress. I love that the program is designed to meet her needs and grows with her."
[NAME] settled well. He found it hard first time but after a few sessions he got used to being there and started to work well. He makes more sounds now and is copying the words after us.
I find our therapist Brilliant! She gives great tips and is excellent in engaging with my son. It is much improved for primary school as he can tell me things that happen in his summer setting, which is less frustrating for him and less worrying for me.
CATTS has a great system that definitely works.
[Therapist] just makes him feel do comfortable. [NAME] has come along so well since we started CATTS. Me and [NAME] have a great communication now and he barely spoke 2 words when we started. Now he is flying with his vocab. We couldn't be prowder.
I think the best thing about CATTS is the professional service. The therapists are very skilled and it is of huge benefit to my child.
I think the best thing is our therapist's approach to dealing with my sometimes difficult child.
Am so happy with speech therapy. She knows how to encourage my son to attempt to say words. He wouldn't have even tried for other therapists. (Therapist) has a fantastic way with him. And out of all the speech therapists we've attended over the years, both public and private, this has been the best by far. Highly recommend.
The best thing about CATTS therapy is the tailored sessions and continuous review of what is working.
[NAME] always had a 'difficult' relationship with his speech therapists from his service providers. CATTS therapists are totally different, young & energetic & determined to get the best out of him.
I have been using CATTS for several month with my daughter. What started off as a very difficult appointment every week (with another service), now my daughter is happy to enter the room immediately and engage with Marijke. I see an improvement at every appointment. I would be lost if I had not found CATTS.
We researched a lot of places and time and time again CATTS was recommended to us. We are so glad we listened as we have seen great progress in our son. [Therapist] just "gets him" and its so nice to have a positive experience all the while our son is doing some "work".
My son has attended regularly for some months now, and responded very early on to the use of Lámh. He has made good progress and enjoys going to sessions. Overall would highly recommend Marijke as an SLT.

We would have taken him years ago."
Since starting with CATTS, my son's confidence has improved, he is involved more socially and he is not as anxious.
[NAME] is very happy and is progressing. My son has built a lot of confidence since starting therapy, our family & friends really see a difference in his abilities.
CATTS are very flexible. My child loves coming and my child understands the speech therapist's instructions, which is very important to me.

I have been attending CATTS with my son for 5 years now and the service we have received is fantastic. Marijke is a wonderful therapist and my son's speech and communication has come on so much from when he started from a no-verbal little boy to a fully verbal child now. Marijke has each session planned to meet his needs and I feel fully involved. We travel a long distance to each session but it is worth it to see the difference in my son's communication and confidence.
Everyone has commented on how well my son's speech has come on.
His speech is more relevant to what is happening around him. Today, he answered a 'Where' question for the first time appropriately without being prompted first.
The best thing about CATTS is the experience of the Speech Therapist. How she engages with my son. He understands a lot more, his receptive language has improved greatly since starting.
Very beneficial program. I learnt a lot of strategies to help me.
"Our therapist obviously puts a lot of thought and effort into each of [NAME]'s sessions, very creative to get the best out of him."
Would highly recommend CATTS. I have seen a big difference in my child since his first session. The biggest has been learning to wait. [NAME] has come along so much, now his vocab is coming on better and better everyday. Since starting the sessions the whole family have joined in to learn what we do in every session and really enjoy learning how to really have fun on [NAME]'s level. it is great to see [NAME] so excited when we get out of the car and see Marijke's door. He knows where he is going and really enjoys it which makes it really enjoyable for us to look at. Thank you.
Niamh is phenomenal! She is so talented at working with children in a fun and relaxed way. My 9 year old didn't even realize any of it was work. He looked forward to every session and that is due to Niamh and her kindness and skill.
The best thing is that my daughter's needs, strengths and weaknesses are being met, understood and worked on. Going at her pace, with patience.

My son has attended regularly for some months now, and responded very early on to the use of Lámh. He has made good progress and enjoys going to sessions. Overall would highly recommend Marijke as an SLT.
I learned how to put Lamh into the school setting where I work. How to plan and create situations where I can use it.
I think the best thing is our therapist's approach to dealing with my sometimes difficult child.

I liked the structure of the class. Marijke made the class fun and enjoyable to learn the different signs.
Since starting speech therapy my daughters speech has improved considerably. Her language skills and comprehension have also seen a huge improvement. She is more confident and thrives on the positive feedback about her progress. I love that the program is designed to meet her needs and grows with her.

“I’ve learned so many signs and how to effectively communicate with residents.”
“I thought the course was made very interesting because it was informal and amusing at times. I was surprised at how the Lamh signs stuck in my mind.”
I liked the enthusiasm of the presenter. It was really interactive, clear and well paced.
“I liked the positive interaction between the tutor & learners.”
[NAME] settled well. He found it hard first time but after a few sessions he got used to being there and started to work well. He makes more sounds now and is copying the words after us.

Thoroughly enjoyed the class. Marijke makes learning fun!
I like the fact that you can look at the videos and browse the group at your own pace.

"Nice people, good understanding with asd kids."
Since starting with CATTS, my son's confidence has improved, he is involved more socially and he is not as anxious.
I liked the way nobody was singled out. The signs were demonstrated as a group.
Very well organised event. - Looking forward to the next CATTS CPD event. Thank you!
I learned so many new signs and lots of different ways to approach kids to create conversation opportunities.
I learned a lot of new Lamh signs
CATTS is an excellent service providing Speech and Language which is highly needed for children with special needs.
I liked Marijke as a Lamh tutor. She was extremely engaging and personable. I like how it was fun during the lesson.
I liked the way the 100 words were split out throughout the day. Not information overload. Very enjoyable - the day flew!
Good cooperation with parents to help special needs kids. Excellent Speech therapy support for kids with ASD.
Marijke was excellent - brilliant tutor.
I learned a lot of signs I didn't know and how to teach them to my brother. I'll finally be able to have a proper conversation with him.
We researched a lot of places and time and time again CATTS was recommended to us. We are so glad we listened as we have seen great progress in our son. [Therapist] just "gets him" and its so nice to have a positive experience all the while our son is doing some "work".
Thought the tutor (Marijke) was excellent. Really easy to listen to, so easy to learn from. Made the day fun. Kept you focused.
"Marijke made the day very funny and interesting."
I learned lots of new signs. Can't wait to learn more.
Found Marijke very enjoyable as a teacher. Made the course a lot more intereting and easier to learn.
Lovely facilities, nice class size. Amazing that only 3 rows back, it felt small and intimate.
A Super Day! A wealth of knowledge. Loved the detail and attention to accuracy. Thank you.
Great few days. Very professionally done and all needs tended to and anticipated
“What did I like: being able to communicate with Lamh user. Brilliant course. Would recommend it to other people.”
The best thing about CATTS is the experience of the Speech Therapist. How she engages with my son. He understands a lot more, his receptive language has improved greatly since starting.
"Great anecdotes helped me associate the words with the sign."
I really enjoyed Patty, loved her style, stories and analogies
I was a bit hesitant at first to ask a question, but once I did, she was really quick getting back to me with pointers and things to do.
I learned a lot of new signs and that it's possible to learn a lot of signs in a relatively short space of time.
The best thing about CATTS therapy is the tailored sessions and continuous review of what is working.
We've seen improvement from day one. We've also learned a lot from watching her work. My son enjoys his sessions with Marijke, she somehow manages to get a 4 year old to focus for the whole session and have fun while doing it. We're seeing constant improvement.
Very beneficial program. I learnt a lot of strategies to help me.
CATTS really know how to attract great speakers. Really professionally run event. Felt very well looked after.
"Very interesting. Benefits us especially while working with kids - learned so many things I never knew e.g. DVD, and apps"
"Our therapist obviously puts a lot of thought and effort into each of [NAME]'s sessions, very creative to get the best out of him."
I liked the way the tutor presented the class. It enabled me to learn in a relaxed way. Her coverage was fantastic. I would attend another class hosted by her.
Social interaction, speech has come on, both expressive and receptive. I'm more relaxed and reassured because I feel supported.
Really Great Event. Well done CATTS 🙂
The BEST THING about CATTS is the One to One service, Great Advice and Tips to work on at home!
A very professional but friendly and focused to each individual child's needs.
“What I liked: Use of videos as well as slides. The variety of signs taught. Relaxed atmosphere – had a laugh while learning signs.”
Great Content. Well organised.
All members of the CATTS team were friendly and helpful. They were always providing much needed information.
I learned how to think about how it might feel to not be able to communicate. I learned not only about the signs but also how to associate them with other things to remember them. I also learned how to 'teach' the signs in an effective way with the kids.
I learned how I can use signs to help children communicate on a one to one basis or in a group to encourage social and language skills in an informal way.
Learned more than I thought I would at one sitting!
“I liked learning sign language so it can help me communicate with my cousin and each other.”
“I enjoyed the games, these were practical and helped consolidate our learning and helped us to retain the new signs.”
Excellent. Very informative and Patty was wonderfully engaging. Learned so much!
I liked your enthuasian and how personable and approachable you are. So much was covered and I liked how you were willng to show us lots of other sign.
My son has attended regularly for some months now, and responded very early on to the use of Lámh. He has made good progress and enjoys going to sessions. Overall would highly recommend Marijke as an SLT.
This is a great idea. It really helps to have a resource on hand you can trust
I liked the multiple steps in learning signs - helped memory.
CATTS has a great system that definitely works.
[Therapist] just makes him feel do comfortable. [NAME] has come along so well since we started CATTS. Me and [NAME] have a great communication now and he barely spoke 2 words when we started. Now he is flying with his vocab. We couldn't be prowder.
Huge amount of useful info. Video clips were useful.
Excellent topic and event. It is difficult to get the opportunity to learn from the main experts in specific fields.
100% of Speech Therapy clients surveyed would recommend CATTS to a friend or family member!
I came away with far more than I could have imagined
"Since starting speech therapy my daughters speech has improved considerably. Her language skills and comprehension have also seen a huge improvement. She is more confident and thrives on the positive feedback about her progress. I love that the program is designed to meet her needs and grows with her."
"Am so happy with speech therapy. She knows how to encourage my son to attempt to say words. He wouldn't have even tried for other therapists. (Therapist) has a fantastic way with him. And out of all the speech therapists we've attended over the years, both public and private, this has been the best by far. Highly recommend. Only annoyed we didn't know about it before. We would have taken him years ago."
“I’ve learned 100 Lamh signs. I’ve learned ways to use them and importance of repetition. I’ve enjoyed Marijke’s energetic method of teaching.”
Without a doubt my son's progression is down to Marijke's involvement. I think the best thing about CATTS service is that they value parents and external therapists input and have no problem liaising with outside services (i.e. HSE, Enable Ireland, etc). We have both learned techniques/ mechanisms to increase speech and reduce fustration. Definate drop in NAME's distress.
The progress my son has made over the last year is astounding. Marijke is a fabulous therapist. It is obvious she enjoys her job and cares for her clients. I appreciate the value CATTS places on parent involvement ant think the tips / techniques provided to use at home have proved to be very successful. We are 100% satisfied with the service CATTS provide.
Excellently covered by Patty, I am walking away feeling a lot more confident that my clients will receive better therapy.
Very informative course, learned a lot both theoretical and practical from a very skilled presenter.
"My thanks to you and Marijke for the excellent staff and responsive service that you have provided in CATTS."

I learned a lot more than I expected to! thank you .
Amazing, Well planned, Very impressed with Lisa’s knowledge as a mother.
The energy and humour of the presenter helps me remember. Marijke delivered it very well and made it very informative and enjoyable! 🙂
I learned more ways to create communication opportunities.
The CATTS team were so friendly and enthusiastic. We all felt really well looked after.
Would highly recommend CATTS. I have seen a big difference in my child since his first session. The biggest has been learning to wait. [NAME] has come along so much, now his vocab is coming on better and better everyday. Since starting the sessions the whole family have joined in to learn what we do in every session and really enjoy learning how to really have fun on [NAME]'s level. it is great to see [NAME] so excited when we get out of the car and see Marijke's door. He knows where he is going and really enjoys it which makes it really enjoyable for us to look at. Thank you.
Am so happy with speech therapy. She knows how to encourage my son to attempt to say words. He wouldn't have even tried for other therapists. (Therapist) has a fantastic way with him.

Everyone has commented on how well my son's speech has come on.
His speech is more relevant to what is happening around him. Today, he answered a 'Where' question for the first time appropriately without being prompted first.
I learned 100 signs to go away and teach my autistic child.
"I enjoyed doing the signs and activity. I think that this will help me in the future with being a special needs assistant"
"I enjoyed the group interaction. Moving between theory and practical Lamh signs has helped me to concentrate for the entirety of the day.”
I have been using CATTS for several month with my daughter. What started off as a very difficult appointment every week (with another service), now my daughter is happy to enter the room immediately and engage with Marijke. I see an improvement at every appointment. I would be lost if I had not found CATTS.
I am very happy with the service we have received with [Therapist]. After 2 sessions [NAME] had started saying 'more', 'again', 'up', 'down' and is continuing to add new words each week.
I think the best thing about CATTS is the professional service. The therapists are very skilled and it is of huge benefit to my child.
Very happy with the attention and detail [NAME] gets at each session. Each session is setup in advance and if a games doesn't go to plan there is always a backup nearby.
I like the no rushing of each session so it can respond to what [NAME] needs on the day. He has opened up so much and has become more confident as time goes on.
That's fantastic thanks so much for all of those strategies! I want to maximise on this latest development with his desire to vocalise sounds and some words! Thanks a million!
With the rollout of Progressing Disabilities its so important to build awareness on family centred practice. Thank you for bringing this and other courses to Ireland.
Niamh is phenomenal! She is so talented at working with children in a fun and relaxed way. My 9 year old didn't even realize any of it was work. He looked forward to every session and that is due to Niamh and her kindness and skill.
I learned over 100 signs which will make it a lot easier to communicate with my child.
I liked the structure of the day. The associations Marijke used helped me to remember the signs. I also like that the games reinforced the signs. Plus the sweets as rewards!
"This is a great service, he really looks forward to the therapy sessions."
Marijke made it very easy to learn and very entertaining! ?
Lisa is very inspiring, very practical and we benefited most from the presenter’s own experience. Enjoyed the positive approach of presenter – I feel invigorated
Patty’s approach to teaching was so engaging, she has a wealth of knowledge and a lovely way of delivering information. A really enjoyable experience overall.
Excellent. Very informative and Patty was wonderfully engaging. Learned so much!

I learned so many new signs and lots of different ways to approach kids to create conversation opportunities.
"Marijke made the day very funny and interesting."
The sessions are fun and she always strives to remember what works for our son down to the smallest details. Our SLT always made sessions fun and engaging but also was able to get the most out of each session which is so important when dealing with intellectual disability.

[NAME] always had a 'difficult' relationship with his speech therapists from his service providers. CATTS therapists are totally different, young & energetic & determined to get the best out of him.
Really Great Event. Well done CATTS 🙂

I am very satisfied with the treatment I got from CATTS. I was a bit apprehensive but the friendly, professional attitude of the therapist put me at my ease. The comparison of my performance at the start of treatment and at the six-monthly follow up showed that my voice had improved both in volume and range. I am more than pleased.
With the rollout of Progressing Disabilities its so important to build awareness on family centred practice. Thank you for bringing this and other courses to Ireland.

I liked that the day was active ad no one was put on the spot!
I liked Marijke as a Lamh tutor. She was extremely engaging and personable. I like how it was fun during the lesson.
"Very helpful when we asked questions - she didn't hesitate to answer anything we asked"
Patty is an excellent presenter, very knowledgeable and enthusiastic.
Really enjoyed the course, excellent information & presenter.
The day was fun! Marijke made it fun and easy to learn. Really enjoying. Good craic.

Thought the tutor (Marijke) was excellent. Really easy to listen to, so easy to learn from. Made the day fun. Kept you focused.
[NAME] enjoys going to Marijke and I feel the work being done is addressing [NAME]'s needs. We attended other speech therapists in the past and whilst they also helped I think CATTS' way of establishing where [NAME]'s main areas of need are, is very good.
I learned more ways to create communication opportunities.
This was a fun, interactive course. Marijke was very good, and patient, friendly and funny.
I learned how to think about how it might feel to not be able to communicate. I learned not only about the signs but also how to associate them with other things to remember them. I also learned how to 'teach' the signs in an effective way with the kids.
"Catts Ireland is providing a superb vital service for children"
I think the best thing about CATTS is the professional service. The therapists are very skilled and it is of huge benefit to my child.
CATTS has a great system that definitely works.

"Our therapist obviously puts a lot of thought and effort into each of [NAME]'s sessions, very creative to get the best out of him."
The best thing is that my daughter's needs, strengths and weaknesses are being met, understood and worked on. Going at her pace, with patience.
Thoroughly enjoyed the class. Marijke makes learning fun!
I liked the structure of the class. Marijke made the class fun and enjoyable to learn the different signs.
Since starting with CATTS, my son's confidence has improved, he is involved more socially and he is not as anxious.
I am very happy with the service we have received with [Therapist]. After 2 sessions [NAME] had started saying 'more', 'again', 'up', 'down' and is continuing to add new words each week.
Very happy with the speech service my son is getting through CATTS. The therapist is working very well with my son and gets the best out of him. Only for this service my son would be getting no speech. I am very grateful.
That's fantastic thanks so much for all of those strategies! I want to maximise on this latest development with his desire to vocalise sounds and some words! Thanks a million!
“I liked the positive interaction between the tutor & learners.”
“I’ve learned 100 Lamh signs. I’ve learned ways to use them and importance of repetition. I’ve enjoyed Marijke’s energetic method of teaching.”
I learned a lot of new Lamh signs
The CATTS team were so friendly and enthusiastic. We all felt really well looked after.
I liked the way nobody was singled out. The signs were demonstrated as a group.
CATTS really know how to attract great speakers. Really professionally run event. Felt very well looked after.

Found Marijke very enjoyable as a teacher. Made the course a lot more intereting and easier to learn.
[NAME] settled well. He found it hard first time but after a few sessions he got used to being there and started to work well. He makes more sounds now and is copying the words after us.
I enjoyed the interaction and the humour!
“What I liked: Use of videos as well as slides. The variety of signs taught. Relaxed atmosphere – had a laugh while learning signs.”

CATTS is an excellent service providing Speech and Language which is highly needed for children with special needs.
“I liked learning sign language so it can help me communicate with my cousin and each other.”
I learned over 100 signs which will make it a lot easier to communicate with my child.
Lovely facilities, nice class size. Amazing that only 3 rows back, it felt small and intimate.

Great few days. Very professionally done and all needs tended to and anticipated
I've joined so many groups etc to try help [NAME], this one is really useful. I do need to ask more questions though lol.
“What did I like: being able to communicate with Lamh user. Brilliant course. Would recommend it to other people.”
"Nice people, good understanding with asd kids."
I have been attending CATTS with my son for 5 years now and the service we have received is fantastic. Marijke is a wonderful therapist and my son's speech and communication has come on so much from when he started from a no-verbal little boy to a fully verbal child now. Marijke has each session planned to meet his needs and I feel fully involved. We travel a long distance to each session but it is worth it to see the difference in my son's communication and confidence.
Very happy with the attention and detail [NAME] gets at each session. Each session is setup in advance and if a games doesn't go to plan there is always a backup nearby.

CATTS Ireland were good and helpful hosts.
Great course. Need more interdisciplinary type courses in Ireland!
The energy of the course and how it was taught. Great information that will stay in my brain!
Very well organised event. - Looking forward to the next CATTS CPD event. Thank you!
Very informative course, learned a lot both theoretical and practical from a very skilled presenter.
I was a bit hesitant at first to ask a question, but once I did, she was really quick getting back to me with pointers and things to do.
"I enjoyed doing the signs and activity. I think that this will help me in the future with being a special needs assistant"
Good insight into different behaviours of autism which was based in the real world. Really excellent
We researched a lot of places and time and time again CATTS was recommended to us. We are so glad we listened as we have seen great progress in our son. [Therapist] just "gets him" and its so nice to have a positive experience all the while our son is doing some "work".
I learned 100 signs to go away and teach my autistic child.
I think the best thing is our therapist's approach to dealing with my sometimes difficult child.
“I thought the course was made very interesting because it was informal and amusing at times. I was surprised at how the Lamh signs stuck in my mind.”
CATTS work really well with my child's school resource teacher and SNA to insure my child has every opportunity to improve his communication skills.
"I enjoyed the group interaction. Moving between theory and practical Lamh signs has helped me to concentrate for the entirety of the day.”
I liked the multiple steps in learning signs - helped memory.
A very professional but friendly and focused to each individual child's needs.

I liked the enthusiasm of the presenter. It was really interactive, clear and well paced.
Marijke made it very easy to learn and very entertaining! ?
I learned a lot more than I expected to! thank you .
I learned how to put Lamh into the school setting where I work. How to plan and create situations where I can use it.
I like the fact that you can look at the videos and browse the group at your own pace.
The energy and humour of the presenter helps me remember. Marijke delivered it very well and made it very informative and enjoyable! 🙂
I find our therapist Brilliant! She gives great tips and is excellent in engaging with my son. It is much improved for primary school as he can tell me things that happen in his summer setting, which is less frustrating for him and less worrying for me.
I learned a lot of signs I didn't know and how to teach them to my brother. I'll finally be able to have a proper conversation with him.
