We started our speech therapy journey at the clinic, and I was so impressed from the start. The…read morestudio is extremely clean and filled with the most exciting toys! I especially love that there are multiple rooms designed around different kids' needs. Aleks was thoughtful about choosing the room where my son would thrive most, making the most of every session. When he started school, Aleks transitioned to seeing him there, which has been such a great way to continue his progress. My son has been working with Aleks for over six months, and I couldn't be happier with the progress he's made. Every session is both fun and productive, and it's been amazing to see his speech develop. I have no doubt he'll continue making progress and reach his speech goals with Aleks's support. Even better, he genuinely looks forward to going to school on the days he knows Aleks will be there! My son absolutely ADORES her, and that says everything! She is so attentive to him and truly understands how to connect with him while keeping each session engaging. When he transitioned to school-based sessions, I was initially sad that I wouldn't get to sit in and see everything firsthand. But Aleks always keeps me in the loop about what they're working on, and I feel completely confident knowing he's in such good hands. It's clear how much care and thought she puts into her work, and we feel so lucky to have her as part of our village. I can't recommend P.L.A.Y Speech & Language Center and Aleks enough!

Our son had weekly speech therapy with Aleks and we couldn't be thankful enough. He was behind in…read morespeech and acting out in his preschool because he could not communicate effectively. As soon as his sessions with Aleks he started exploding in speech and now that we are sad to part ways with her, we are so thankful that our son is ahead in many aspects of his speech for kids his age. Aleks also tailored her speech sessions in a way to address our son's sensory seeking ways and grab his attention as he likes to keep moving. This was above and beyond any other speech therapy accommodation we've seen in the past (with our other children). As a family, we couldnt be more happy with the services Aleks gave us!

My husband and I love the staff and services our two boys have received at this office. Ms…read more Shannon, Darya, and Savannah have catapulted our boys from non verbal to talking up a storm. I can't imagine where my boys would be without the staffs dedication to my boys. I love how accommodating they are when last minute schedule changes happen. They truly are apart of our growing village in helping us raise my kids and I'll forever be grateful for all their hard work. The only reason I didn't give them a 5 star review was because recently they removed the mens restroom key from the lobby to one of the back offices. My husband, along with many other dedicated fathers, take their children to speech therapy and it's become a nuisance to constantly have to ask the office for the key. When you take more than one child to speech therapy you're there for at least an hour and a half. Anyone with kids knows that could be multiple trips to the restroom. It was so much easier when the keys, both men and women's, were hanging in the lobby. *** the bathroom issue has been resolved and I have updated my rating to a full 5 stars. Thank you for taking this issue into consideration

Thank You To the Amazing Staff and Sharon the owner for taking on our family challenge with our…read moresons Speech Challenges. We looked for a Licensed Speech Therapist that would not only work with higher level speech therapy needs but also with simplistic ones as well, somewhere where you could feel the sense of care in there practice (like family) from someone who truly connected and embraced kindness and a feeling of empowering children with disabilities. From the first look at Sharons Web page and yelp i knew she was someone different and that there was meaning with a life dedicated to her practice. I thought if someone like this exist she must have a great staff. Through out the time we began January 2020 Till January 2021 our 5 now 6 year old son made extraordinary progress. Our son is not the easiest to get to focus. Sharons staff had no problem with using unique assignments, hands on activities and techniques to bring attention to focus to be able to adapt and make progress with all his challenges with I would not hesitate to meet or talk with Sharon She is a Shining Light in a Field where Knowledgable and Empowered Speech Therapist are far and few in between. Below is a picture of our son receiving his certificate of Progress. Thank you Thank you I hope this review speaks to someone looking for a One of a Kind Speech Therapist

My granddaughter has been attending speech therapy with Sayeh for over a year and the family is…read morevery pleased with her progress. Her teaching method is relatable for children of all ages. She is able to develop a solid connection with the child and gives them a feeling of confidence as they progress in their speech. The office location is convenient off the highway with ample parking. The waiting is inviting with books for the children to read while in the office as well as borrow. I am confident you would be extremely satisfied with your child engaging the services of SG Speech Therapy!

Desiree is a god sent! I cannot recommend her highly enough. I reached out because I wanted to…read moreschedule an independent speech evaluation for my daughter and was fully prepared to pay out of pocket. Instead of simply taking us on as a client, and taking our money, she took the time to understand our situation and advised me that it would be better to hold off until I spoke with an Independent Facilitator about our SDP plan. She didn't want me spending money on something that might not be necessary, and that level of integrity is incredibly rare. What impressed me even more was how knowledgeable she is! She doesn't just understand speech therapy, she has an exceptional understanding of the special needs world as a whole, including the Regional Center, the Self Determination program, school districts, assessments, and how all of these systems work together. She answered questions I didn't even know to ask and helped point me in the right direction. It is so refreshing to meet a provider who truly puts families first instead of focusing on making a sale. Her honesty, compassion, and expertise were a breath of fresh air. I would wholeheartedly recommend her to any family navigating the special needs journey. Thank you so much Desiree! You are amazing!

She invests in getting to know the child so that she can best tailor their treatment plan. My daughter has drastically improved her speech, and Sarah has also given me the tools I need to reinforce practices at home. I highly recommend Sarah and so does my 5-year-old! She loves her!

My 2.5 year old twins took speech therapy with Sarah for 5 months and she was the absolute best!!…read moreShe is very patient, kind and really motivates the kids to talk. Their speech drastically improved even though we were only with her for a short time. Her background in behavioral therapy was also extremely helpful. If I had any questions regarding behavior, I would ask her and she gave me great tools to use with the kids. Unfortunately, we moved to a new city so could no longer see her. :( My twins absolutely adored her and would cry every time she had to leave. They still ask about her just about once a week. She made a big impact on their speech and with them in general. I would highly recommend her to anyone looking for speech therapy for their child!! There isn't a kinder, sweeter or more passionate person than Sarah!!

Natalie has been a true blessing to our family. She has supported my father, who has endured two…read moremajor strokes affecting his ability to speak and swallow over the past six years. After his first stroke, he was completely NPO with a PEG tube, and nearly every speech therapist believed there was little hope for progress due to his severe conditions. Finding Natalie felt like a miracle. Through her patience, expertise, and compassion, she helped him achieve what once seemed impossible: having his PEG tube removed and safely enjoying food again. Seeing him regain that independence was extraordinary, and Natalie was central to that progress. When he later suffered a second stroke and needed another PEG tube, Natalie never wavered. Her steady encouragement and dedication have brought our family comfort once again through this challenging journey. Natalie is gifted in her work, wonderfully kind, and genuinely caring. She treats my father with dignity and respect, and her impact has been profound. I wholeheartedly recommend Vital Speech & Swallow to anyone needing speech or swallowing therapy. We are forever grateful for Natalie!

My 3year old daughter recently graduated from speech therapy here after attending 1 hour weekly for…read more10months. I picked a time and later wanted to change it but couldn't so pick wisely. We had the same therapist the entire time- Valerie and she is great! They use toys like cutting vegetables, fisher price farm and house, etc to get your little one to talk and pick up common words. (I recommend keeping the kids out of the toy closet!) My daughter progressed slowly over time and now says 2-3 word sentences when she was just saying maybe 10 words total when we started. She has not caught up completely as we started after she was 2 years old and about 1 year behind in her speech. I initially noticed she was not progressing and mentioned it to my pediatrician who just recommended that we continue monitoring her at 18 months. Sure enough by the 2 year mark she had not progressed much since she was 1 year old. She was evaluated by the regional center and her speech was at the 14month mark as I thought! Mamas listen to your gut and come see Valerie to help your child develop their speech. Thanks Valerie, we appreciate you! Now the part I didn't like- the parking! Like most businesses on Ventura, the parking is terrible! They have 3 tandem spots and some visitor parking for the whole building. Try to park behind your therapist if you can! One time I parked behind a Tesla and in the middle of our session, I had to leave with my daughter and move the car. Another time I was about to pull out and the Tesla driver came and pulled out in front of me! Rude! Minus 1 star for this. Other times there were no spots and I had to make a U turn to park at the meters on Ventura. They also have a tiny waiting room so don't come too early to your sessions. Their bathrooms are for the building and located outside.

Not only is she a phenomenal speech therapist, she truly empathized with me on a profound level and has been there for us, literally, since day one.

Under her tutelage, my daughters' speech and confidence improved massively. Keren knew exactly what methods worked best for my daughter's little foibles. I cannot say enough good things about Keren. If you are lucky enough to have her services, consider yourself blessed - and know that you made the right decision by choosing this absolutely wonderful person.

Nelli is amazing. She is so attentive, and structured in her sessions. She was able to redirect my daughter and consistently keep her focus on her speech session.

We also worked with Chiara in office for make up sessions. She is also awesome and extremely caring. My daughter loved to see her as well. Overall, I recommend Speech for Young talkers. Whether in office or at home their team is all around awesome.
