His "S" is the final area to work on and Shannon is doing a great job of helping him stay motivated as he works on correcting his lisp.

Having a baby is already hard, but having a baby that needs help with feeding is something that no…read moreone can prepare you for. After a 6 week stay in the NICU, and a G-Tube placement, we started feeding therapy with Teresa through the Golden Gate Regional Center. During our time in the hospital and just after, we met with a number of feeding therapists that were next to no help with us. It was frustrating and sad, especially as new mom. When I met Teresa, I told her upfront that I was having a hard time and that I needed someone that could really help us get to a place where we could wean off our feeding tube. Nearly a year later, my daughter has been tube-free for almost five months, and has been mostly oral for about nine months. So much of our progress has been because of the help I got from Teresa. She has amazing patience, and really listens to what you're saying and offers useful and constructive ways to help. Nothing about it is forced, and along the way, there's also a gentleness in her approach to moving to the next steps. Of all our early intervention providers, Teresa is the one person I really wanted to meet with on a weekly basis because I knew there'd be constructive and helpful takeaways from our meetings. We recently had to relocate out of the state, and I am incredibly sad that I couldn't bring Teresa with us. Hopefully this means that Teresa can now help another family in the same way that she helped ours. Thank you Teresa and SF Speech!

Ms. Haley was warm, energetic, engaging, professional, and so very capable and knowledgable. I recommend her without reservation.

They accept payment from golden gate regional center and some health insurances, and generate the necessary superbills in a timely fashion if you have out of network benefits as well.

It was great that Therapista offers home visits, which was convenient for our family. The therapist was really good at working with my picky toddler and getting him to do certain activities; she made the exercises fun. 1 star off: The only feedback for Therapista is that our therapist changed the time of every single one of our meetings, so it was difficult to get our toddler into a routine because the physical therapy sessions were on different days of the week and at different times of the day. The sessions are supposed to be 50 minutes long, but a few of our sessions were curtailed due to the therapist's personal issues. At the end, my son is doing much better now, so I am glad that we used Therapista. Without them, he probably still does not have the fine motor skills to pick his nose or something!

She is easy to work with, deeply knowledgeable, and brings a calm, kind presence to every interaction. What stands out most is her relationship-based lens. She takes the time to understand each child and family, meeting them where they are and building meaningful, trusting connections that support growth.

She offers strategies that feel both practical and aligned with how children naturally learn and relate. We highly recommend Dani to any school or family looking for a wonderful, experienced speech therapist who brings both expertise and heart to her work.

From our very first meeting, her holistic, child-centered, and play-based approach resonated with me immediately. She has helped us better understand our son while always seeing him as a whole child and recognizing his unique strengths. She is incredibly kind, approachable, collaborative, and deeply knowledgeable, with a thoughtful understanding of child development that allows her to truly meet children where they are and gently scaffold growth from there. She has built such a warm, trusting relationship with our son, and it has been a joy to watch him continue to open up and grow with her support. Beyond our sessions, Dani has been incredibly generous with her guidance and connections, recommending other providers, preschools, and resources that have helped us start to build a wonderful team and supportive community around us. Her willingness to collaborate with everyone supporting our son has been invaluable and has made such a difference for our family. We continue to see our son grow and blossom, and we are so grateful to have Dani as part of our journey. I wholeheartedly recommend her to any family looking for a compassionate, thoughtful, and highly skilled speech-language pathologist.

My recent experiences elsewhere in the Bay Area were frustrating; for instance, while the audiologists at the Stanford Hearing Institute are competent, they don't seem to listen to their patients. In contrast, the audiologists at Sound Speech & Hearing Clinic are both knowledgeable and dedicated to following up on any issues. Melissa Beer is highly competent and friendly; she worked with me extensively to fine-tune my hearing aids over several sessions. An additional benefit is the pricing, which is much more affordable than the Stanford Hearing Institute for exactly the same hearing aids from Oticon. Even though I live forty miles away from San Francisco, the travel is well worth the effort.

From the beginning, she was always patient, nurturing and supportive to Will. He trusted her and was always eager to visit her each week. In their play-based therapy sessions, she knew how to find his interests and motivated him to practice and learn. He'd come home and continue practicing at times! She also helped me, as a parent, understand where my child's progress was at; and I learned also how I could continue to support Will at home each week. It really has been such a blessing to see our son progress the past three years, and watch him thrive. Thank you, Shannon!

The world of Speech Pathology has access to limited practical, clinical technology. However, when…read moreI first learned about Speech buddies Buddies, specifically designed tools for individual problem sounds that would be placed inside the mouth and teach the proper and consistent tongue placement that we all try to achieve, I was most intrigued. The method of almost instant intra-oral tactile feedback that has been created is effective and works impressively well. It has quickly become clear to me that Speech Buddies do a great job of teaching children how to place their to accomplish proper sound production. In addition, parents are impressed and supportive when I am able to recommend a technological option for their child that I think will speed up their learning process. It is most reassuring to them, and adds to my credibility in the early days of establishing a therapeutic relationship, that I have a variety of methods, both conventional and cutting-edge that I can use for their child. As for the kids, they always love gadgets, games and anything "techy" - especially something that they can actually touch which helps them and allows them to see rapid positive results. Speech Buddies provides effective tactile feedback where parents and children can rapidly hear and feel a difference. They motivate and encourage everyone involved in the Speech Pathology process, allowing for faster progress and easier carryover and generalization outside of the therapeutic environment. Speech Buddies are unique, effective tactile feedback tools that truly do what they are designed to accomplish. They help to correct problem sounds while encouraging and motivating in both a therapy and home setting. They work and are worthy of your interest. Donna Orloff

I'm so happy that finally a solution exists to accomplish this task in a much more effective, consistent and professional way. Speech Buddies also enable me to apply this method to a much larger set of sounds including the R sound, one of the trickiest to teach.
