We've had such a wonderful experience with Gina C. at Radiant Kids Therapy. Gina truly listens to…read moreparents' concerns and takes the time to set clear, realistic expectations, which immediately made us feel supported and confident in our son's care. What really sets Gina apart is her patient-led approach. She meets my son where he is and adjusts each session based on his needs in the moment. Gina is incredibly compassionate, sweet, and attentive to cues. When my son becomes overwhelmed and needs space--sometimes even needing to step into a quiet corner--Gina recognizes this right away and adapts without pressure. That flexibility and understanding helped her build real trust with him. Because Gina listens, observes, and adjusts so thoughtfully, our son feels safe and respected during sessions, and that has made a huge difference in his progress. She is a fantastic representative of Radiant Kids Therapy, and I highly recommend her to any family looking for a caring, patient, and child-centered speech therapist.

From Stephanie (the owner) who was the first person who called me and took the time to understand my concerns and questions, to the wonderful staff and therapists, it is such a great experience! Sabrina and Marissa are especially amazing! But all of the therapists there truly care and do their best to support you and your children. OT is a world I didn't know much about, but I felt very supported and got a lot of information and help. Their facility is also really big and has so many fun things to engage your kids like a zip line; trampoline, ball pit; games, feeding room, etc. I highly recommend going to them and you will see your children grow and develop.

He is a happier kid today than he was before we started, which is the best outcome I could ask for. Thank you SDOT!

Her professionalism, expertise, and wonderful personality made for the best possible experience during my recovery. I was new to the area and wasn't sure what to expect with a new therapist. However, it turned out to be a fantastic match, as Sharon is top-notch at what she does and just as enjoyable of a person to spend the hour with. I highly recommend her and the other professionals at WAVE. Fast forward to 2025, after my shoulder surgery I knew where to go and who to see. Once again Sharon made all the efforts to work with me, my schedule and Tricare, so I can get the best care and recovery I need in order to get healthy. My shoulder is all healed, my range or motion and strength are back. Sharon did it again. Thank you Wave for all you do!

We haven't gone to an IEP meeting yet so I will update once we do, but I do feel that he is an assesor with integrity which is important. Too many therapists have improper training by districts and deny children a proper assesment. Mr. Wilson's facility is very comprehensive, clean and orderly...he has a big train set in the entrance which instantly calmed my child who loves trains. His front desk staff is kind, respectful and attentive. So far I have a high opinion of this center and this assesor and will bring my other children who need OT services here. I should also add that I've been to many OT centers and some are run in a very "mill"/"factory" way where the kids are pushed through. I did not get that feel here.

Not knowing if it's going to be a good fit, or a parent feeling comfortable doing that.

Since we were just starting out with her speech at barely 1yo, Nikki mostly did cause and effect games with her which actually helped my daughter establish meaning to her voice. A lot of our appts were laughs and giggles with Nikki engaged with my daughter and taught her peek-a- boo and saying "Horray" at the right time to "if you're happy and you know it". Even though we moved away, I still love texting Nikki new and exciting speech things my daughter is doing. We loved Nikki so much and she's so personal and you can definitely tell her heart is in it and her heart is to help kids.

Basically the employee that did our evaluation no longer works for the company, so no one picked up on our case and they told us they are now working on getting our results. Which I highly doubt. They also wanted us to go on a waitlist 2-3 months from now so in the long run we won't actually get our help 3-4 months. If I could give zero stars I would.

Lauren was Luca's therapist even before she joined your practice, and we continued with her there. As Luca is now 4-years-old and I've had the chance to interact with numerous physicians, caretakers, therapists and professionals related to his overall care, I can say with confidence that I am in awe of Lauren. Lauren is a passionate, dedicated and energetic therapist. She showed up to each and every session in our home ready and focused on Luca. She cared very deeply about Luca's progress and went above and beyond to ensure he had every chance to access speech, language and develop to his maximum potential. I appreciated her creative approach to "learn" what Luca liked and disliked, and how she could bring the best out of him. She tailored her activities and approach to Luca's interests and although my nonverbal son is difficult at times to understand from first glance, Lauren successfully navigated their communication styles and was able to have a relationship with Luca. Lauren not only taught Luca, but she also educated my husband and myself, in addition to our nurses and other caretakers to ensure we all had access to learning Luca's best options and what opportunities there are for us all as we continue down this path. She was patient, persistent and opened our eyes to possibilities we would never have known. As a mom, I felt supported fully by Lauren and knew she truly loved my son. That went far beyond any level of care I could ever have asked for - I don't often leave "reviews" but I feel obligated to share how much of a true difference Lauren has made in our lives.

My son has attended occupational therapy sessions with Danielle at Writesteps for six months…read more Danielle is a phenomenally talented OT and she works on skills beyond what is traditionally offered during school-based therapy. My son has ADHD and struggles significantly with handwriting and motor planning. Danielle has systematically taught him cursive writing and uses many innovative multi-sensory techniques in her therapy. My son does not realize he is receiving therapy because Danielle makes every session a lot of fun for him. He enjoys the interactive games and motor activities that she implements before and after handwriting practice. I have worked as a school psychologist for 20 years and I only would send my son to Danielle for therapy. She understands the supports and training children need from a developmental perspective.

He started OT on the recommendation of his Kindergarten teacher. Danielle worked with him on fine motor skills, handwriting and sensory support integration. My son looked forward to his sessions, she has tons of cool stuff in her office- a ball pit, trapeze-type swinging contraptions, and more. Perhaps equally important, she has helped me as I have continued to advocate for my son, providing reports for evaluations, counseling me on strategies for school, listening when I needed support, and sharing her opinion when I needed a second set of eyes. We highly recommend Writesteps Pediatric Occupational Therapy. Danielle is passionate about helping children, and she brings such a beautiful combination of knowledge and love to her job. We are so grateful to her!

This review is for OT. Would leave zero stars if I could. The billing has been a constant issue,…read moreeven when we cancel appointments, we still end up getting charged. The sessions are advertised as 30 minutes, but in reality they feel much shorter. The therapist usually spends the first 5-10 minutes letting our son play, then about 15 minutes on actual therapy, and the last 10 minutes cleaning up and wrapping up the session. When I called to ask about it, the person I spoke with said it's because insurance only allows them to bill for 15 minutes of therapy. It's frustrating to pay so much when only about 15 minutes of the appointment is actual therapy time. Overall, we were not impressed and ultimately decided to pull our son out.

He has high sensory needs and severe speech and language delays. He loves the equipment and toys at this center for OT. Some speech sessions can be challenging because he's not motivated to talk, prefer to be under the table instead, etc. Our main Speech Therapist here is Ms. Vidya, she is fantastic! She has made so much progress with my son's speech. Chris and everyone here are very knowledgeable, experienced, and professional. These sessions not only have helped my son but also helped me with being a better primary caregiver for my son. It's really just from observing what work or doesn't work with my son during sessions and by asking questions to Chris and his team. One of the things that these sessions help me with is having a better understanding of my son's physical needs and being a better problem solver. For example, I was able to practice certain things outside of sessions to help my son with like desensitizing loud sound from hair clipper/hand dryer, putting on his clothes independently, etc. Overall, we are so grateful to have MyKidsPlace in our son's life.

It is a small private practice, so the therapy sessions feel more personalized. I have been worked on by Angela and Sidi and they are both great! You can tell that they truly care about their patients and progress. Also, the "sandbox" machine is so neat! It feels like your arm is floating in outer space, but it's warm too, so very therapeutic. They also use hot packs, ultrasound, kinesio tape, paraffin wax, foam rolls, etc etc. The custom splinting is really cool too! It seems like they take a lot of types of insurance, and they also sell a lot of products that help with your recovery. I would definitely recommend SoCal Hand Therapy for anyone with an upper extremity injury. They are THE BEST!
