Home Environment
Beth opened the Abisror Speech Center in 2011. The Abisror Speech Center was based out of the clinician's home, in order to provide a friendly, welcoming environment to children and their families.
Starting in March of 2020, the Abisror Speech Center transitioned to telehealth service delivery - bringing high quality speech-language therapy directly into your home! This eliminated the need for face-masking, testing, social-distancing, and commuting.
