Lisa Butler still sits with the sound that will not come. Back Bay Speech Therapy works from 68 Russell St in Charlestown — one hour, one child, one sentence that finally holds.
Soft geometry for a quiet hour — not a waiting-room collage from another clinic.
The hour is not a hallway. Lisa keeps toys, picture cards, and a table that faces the window on Russell Street so a child can look out and still come back to the sound.
1
Ring or leave digits
Lisa calls back from 68 Russell St.
2
Sit the evaluation
Parent in the room or downstairs — you choose.
3
Take a weeknight drill
A map short enough to finish after dinner.
4
Carry it to school
A note the classroom can actually use.
From the stoop
Four voices we walk back into the week
Composites of what parents tell Lisa after the hour — not chart notes, and never a child’s real name.
Parent · Monument side
“He could read the word and still skip the R. Lisa sent a three-minute drill we actually finished after homework.”
Parent · Bunker Hill Street
“She pointed at everything and said almost nothing. We sat in. Two-word strings showed up by the fifth hour.”
Parent · middle school
“He stopped raising a hand. They slowed the first syllable and wrote the teacher one paragraph. He talks in class again.”
Parent · after ear tubes
“Hearing cleared; speech stayed muddy. Lisa rebuilt the consonants he had never quite heard, then let the playground take over.”
What we treat
Therapy that sits beside the sentence, not above it
Pediatric speech and language work from a Charlestown house clinic — articulation, language, fluency, and the first evaluation that names the gap.
Lead hour
Pediatric speech evaluation
Lisa listens first, then tests only what the hour needs. You leave with a plain-language plan, not a stack of scores no one will read on the ferry home.
Articulation & phonology
Sounds that drop, substitute, or never quite arrive — drilled in play, not in a worksheet pile.
Language & late talkers
Vocabulary, two-word combos, and the questions a child should be asking back.
Fluency & school carryover
Stuttering work that respects the child’s voice, plus a note the classroom can actually use.
