Marcy (who works in the front desk) is very knowledgeable about the regional center and has contacts to help expedite the process. We've worked with Brittney for about a year and a half, and she has been instrumental in helping my daughter gain the confidence and skills to work on her expression. The therapy is play based and she makes it fun! We consider her more than our therapist, but a friend. Cheryl is amazing as well. She is sweet and is great at getting shy kids to open up. If you're looking for a speech therapy center in the Pasadena/La Canada area look no further!!

I just got off the phone with Aliba at Justine Sherman and I am extremely impressed. As a…read morefirst-time mom, I have some concerns about my 11 month daughter's speech development. I had no idea if they were warranted or a figment of my imagination. Aliba spent a significant amount of time on the phone with me, listening to my concerns and answering the many questions I had. She provided me with suggestions, resources and an action plan if my daughter does not continue to improve. Even though I was interested in getting an assessment done now, considering my daughters case, she suggested I wait and then invited me to email her at any time if I had more questions. Wow! That was way more than I expected! I had no idea that I could get that kind of information and feedback without paying for an appointment. I am more than pleased. If my daughter does need speech therapy in the future I will most certainly be contacting Justine Sherman before anyone else. Thank you Aliba for your genuine concern and valued advice

I have 6 years old boy and we probably started to work with Amanda G. when he was 3 or 4years old…read more We went through so many different speech therapists and she is by far the most exceptional speech therapist and possessed a deep understanding of language development and myofunctional speech. She always created a warm and encouraging environment, incorporating games and practical exercises that made learning enjoyable. What stood out the most was her patience and dedication. My 6 years old boy has improved so much now in terms of his overall speech skills. Thanks to her, he is no longer in need of a speech therapy anymore. I highly recommend this speech therapist to anyone seeking support in this area.

They took down my first review. People need to know the truth!…read more My son has been receiving speech therapy at Recess Therapy for over 2 1/2 years, and while the speech therapist he sees is wonderful and has done great work with him, the company itself has become a huge disappointment since the new ownership took over. Communication with parents has been almost nonexistent, and it feels like the focus is more on money than on patient care. The therapy sessions, which were once thorough and beneficial, are now rushed and too short to truly meet my son's needs. This is especially difficult when running late, as there's no flexibility or understanding. Their late cancellation policy is unreasonable, demanding cancellations 24 hours in advance, but it's nearly impossible to get in touch with anyone. Today was the final straw. My son showed up for his scheduled appointment, only to find out that it had been canceled. There was no call, no voicemail, no communication beforehand. This left my son confused and upset, as he couldn't understand why he wasn't seen for his session. It's incredibly frustrating to waste time and gas when services aren't provided as expected. Despite the great work of my son's therapist, I can no longer trust the company. It's clear they're more focused on profits than providing quality care to families. I would NOT recommend Recess Therapy to anyone.

Wonderful therapists but completely outweighed by the AWFUL administration and management. Billing…read moredoesn't communicate with the front desk and we always have to be on top of everything otherwise we get punished for their mistakes and are repeatedly threatened to have our recurring appointment slot taken away. We paid our copay after several off schedule and confusing bills during the holidays and it took 2 days for billing to tell scheduling, so they let someone else have our appointment slot for the week. Escalating it did no good and they gave the other person doing a "makeup" session have priority (unbelievable!) so we had to either skip the week or book with a different therapist - my son cried because he didn't get to go during his usual time with his therapist. Terrible customer service and the owner doesn't care at all about their clients. Avoid if possible. Edited to update: Added 1 star because my child is doing well there. It's just sad that the owner/admin cares more about the $$ instead of the kids.

My son just graduated out of speech and we are over the moon…read more As I'm writing this, I'm reflecting on the mind blowing progress my son has made in just 3 years with the incredible help of Mrs. Teresa. When we first started here, my son was speech delayed and no one understood the few words he did say. Mrs. Teresa was able to target his problem areas and gave my son the tools he needed to communicate clearly and effectively. Mrs. Teresa is kind, gentle, patient, stern when needed, and truly invested in my son's growth and progress. They worked hard together during sessions, and she always rewarded my son with play time at the end which he appreciated. She always pushed and challenged him -- every session the improvement was undeniable. My son is a better speaker, a more confident communicator, and is able to focus and apply himself so much more now. I have a daughter at a different clinic who has now seen several different therapists, and I truly don't think with them all combined they could do what Mrs. Teresa does. She is an expert in the field and my son and I were truly blessed to work with her! Shout out to Miss Rosa who runs a tight ship! She truly keeps everything running smoothly, handles everything from scheduling to billing to whatever else falls on her lap, and she always does it with a welcoming and warm smile. She's the first and last face we see -- the face of the company. It's bitter sweet to say goodbye. Thank you sooooo much to Mrs. Teresa & Miss Rosa for being a part of our lives for the past 3 years.

Grace is an amazing pediatric speech therapist! We began seeing Grace when my son was 22 months old…read moreback in June of 2023. I noticed my son wasn't talking like his peers and even though he was still quite young, early intervention has made such a big difference for us and I owe it all to Grace. Flash forward two years later and my son can express himself and be understood. We used Grace in addition to Regional Services and I will say that it made a big difference for us to also use Grace and get more individualized attention. Grace really involves the parent in every session, teaching you simple strategies to incorporate in your day to day to promote speech and sounds. Every week, my son wanted to see Grace because of her gentle approach and the creative ways she used play for therapy. Grace is extremely knowledgable- She always explains the "why" and looks at the WHOLE child which I think is so important.

She takes pride in her work and it definitely shows. Our son, Michael, who is Autistic has made wonderful progress with his reading, comprehension, annunciation, and communicating with others. In the office she has him read stories, watch videos, fill in the blank, conversation back/forth, and the list goes on... At home, she sends us homework assignments to continue challenging himself, keep him motivated to learn more, and build confidence with learning new vocabulary words. She also coordinates and communicates with our son's other service providers making it a more synchronized effort. We are like one big family, with one goal, to help Michael succeed! THANK YOU MS. GRACE!!

My daughter, Winter, has graduated from Brittany's myofunctional therapy program and we are so…read moregrateful we were referred to Brittany! Winter can be a bit reserved at first but Brittany helped her feel comfortable extremely quickly and built a great relationship with her. Winter was excited to see and engage with Britany, which was very helpful in getting her through the intensive program. We started myo because of Winter's severe teeth grinding, and within 5 days of starting the mouth exercises, Winter stopped grinding! We couldn't believe it but she truly stopped within that first week. We continued the program as we wanted to ensure the grinding didn't start back up and also wanted Winter to have the ideal oral resting posture in the long term. Towards the end of the program, Winter became a silent sleeper - mouth completely closed and quiet as a mouse, couldn't hear her breathe at all. She wakes up well rested and ready to go from having great sleep. Brittany was so great with Winter, firm enough to get Winter through the exercises properly but also warm and friendly so that Winter looked forward to meeting with her. Her professionalism and productivity impressed us and we couldn't recommend her more!

Both of my children were referred, authorized, evaluated, and started the intake process together, yet weeks later we are suddenly being told they must now be scheduled on separate days and different times despite me making my expectations very clear from the beginning. I specifically explained upfront that if these accommodations could not be met, we would seek services elsewhere instead of wasting valuable time waiting through this process. Instead of listening, the office continued the process only to later tell us they could not accommodate what was already discussed. Melva contacted me multiple times only to repeatedly say there was "nothing she can do," which is unacceptable considering this issue was created by the facility's own lack of communication and scheduling consistency. She also refused to provide management or owner contact information when requested, making it even more frustrating to try and resolve the issue professionally. To make matters worse, Zoom appointments were suggested for my son despite being informed he cannot effectively participate in long virtual sessions due to focus and attention difficulties. Families seeking services deserve clear communication, honesty, and respect from the beginning -- especially when dealing with children and lengthy referral/authorization wait times. Unfortunately, that was not our experience here.
