Leticia is an amazing therapist. Not only is she bilingual, which was a huge plus for us, she also…read morehas an amazing heart and connects with her clients. My siblings and I hired her for my mom who had a stroke 2 years ago. My mom had not liked any other therapist her insurance provided but within 10 minutes of Leticia's first visit, her and my mom got along so well it brought tears to our eyes to see my mom laugh and smile during her speech therapy session. Leticia listened to us carefully with all of our concerns and provided my mom with top notch services. Thanks to her, my mom was able to make more progress in the first few months, than she had with her other speech therapist. Having worked with special needs kids myself, I understand the need of making a true connection with your student in order to see some sort of growth in them. My mom went from barely being able to say and recognize her own name, to being able to say and spell her full name and more. I can go on and on about all the wonderful things Leticia had done for my mom but I don't think there is enough room. I truly recommend her to anyone who is in need of hiring her for speech therapy. Trust me if we could of continued paying for her services, she would still be hired till this day!

We have developed a particularly strong clinical relationship with Megan-who not only has a heart of gold-but has a doctorate in physical therapy. She is a deeply engaged and intuitive therapist-and is absolutely wonderful with our little one. Megan has boundless compassion and a natural finesse with very young children. Megan is a wonderful clinician who you want on your team. You want a physical therapist who not only possesses great content knowledge in this discipline-but also has the soft skills, compassion, and way of mediating and communicating with families/parents that makes this therapeutic journey easier and more effective for your child. I feel lucky and blessed to have met her, and to have someone of her outstanding qualifications and skill sets working with my little one. The administrative staff-Dana and Cierra-have always responded to my questions promptly, kindly, and with absolute professionalism. I am so grateful for the staff's outreach and efforts to consistently update me on our child's service related needs, admin issues, and they have been very flexible with scheduling. I highly recommend Therapy South and their amazing staff!

I have the most lovable nephew in the world. However, he can sometimes be a little terror. Not like…read moreGizmo chugging Liquid Death after midnight terror, but he does have tendencies to act up. What makes it harder is that he was diagnosed with ADHD and moderate-to-severe autism. Like many others with his conditions, he has speech delays. Naturally, our family sought out help and Kayla and her courses turned out to be game changing for the successful upbringing of my nephew. My nephew was non-verbal for about his first 2.5 years. Because his parents were a little concerned, they got in touch with Kayla and picked up the course. Her course advised communication with sign language which has helped tremendously. The next time I saw him after they started the courses, he was speaking with his hands constantly. I was surprised how quickly he picked up signs like "I'm hungry" and "all done". Silly me thought at first his hand motions were his natural mannerisms because he was born in the Italian part of New York City. Eventually he would speak by repeating everything we were saying. It hit me. He had a photographic memory and he was like a computer just copying everything into his hard drive. I looked at my little card counting machine with dollar sign filled eyes. I immediately booked us a suite at the Venetian on the Vegas strip. To our demise, I found out that little kids are not allowed at the blackjack tables so I had to cancel our trip. Also, his mom was not fond of me taking him to a smoke-filled room packed with degenerates like myself. On top of that, it turns out from Walkie Talkie's videos, his repeating is a matter of speech development. It is an interim stage of him practicing his words and sounds but not fully using them for communication purposes. But you hold on tight little buddy.. we'll crack the casinos together one day. Fast forward a few months and there was one incident where I found him shrieking like a bloody murder was happening. I couldn't tell if he had just gotten stabbed in the back by OJ or if he was practicing for an audition of an Amber Heard marital fight scene. At that moment, my training from the videos kicked in. I asked him in a calm tone, "what are you feeling right now?" He screamed: "It's a lion!" I jumped out of my seat and turned around to see if there were any furry feline predators that had escaped and entered my living room... In my defense, I do actually live pretty close to the San Diego Zoo. Apparently, I hadn't watched enough of the Walkie Talkie videos because it turns out that he was expressing his feelings by describing an animal that makes him feel scared because he was hanging out with me and missed his mother. Once I learned about this, I couldn't have been more proud of the kid. Even fully grown adults aren't able to identify their feelings sometimes, let alone have such colorful descriptions of them . Throughout the lessons, I learned that a nephew like mine has the ability to unlock his communication skills in many ways that may not be taught or catered to in a traditional school setting. I know that he is a really intelligent human being and will be able to strengthen his verbal skills through the exercise and training that Walkie Talkie Speech Therapy offers. Through these courses, I can see my nephew reaching his optimal potential which is to become the next Elon Musk minus his douche-baggery and twitter account. To rate Walkie Talkie Speech Therapy anything less than five stars would be to condemn life itself.

My son had been receiving OT services with MeBe for several years. MeBe has staffing issues and…read morearen't able to retain good providers. For the last few years my son switched 3 therapists. In August 2025, he stopped receiving OT services as MeBe lost 3 OT providers at the same time. He was placed on waitlist until MeBe hires a new provider. Three months later he was discharged from OT services without opportunity to discuss this decision. If you want your child to received continues services, MeBe is not the right place for it.

Despite the important work being done in the ABA field, the company consistently fails to support…read moreits employees in meaningful or sustainable ways. One of the most concerning issues is the lack of communication and transparency. Employees often receive no notice when clients cancel sessions, resulting in wasted trips and unpaid time. In such cases, you're either told to clean the facility (an unreasonable expectation outside the role of a Behavior Technician) or you're abruptly reassigned to cover another BT's session without context or consent. The pay is among the lowest in the ABA field, especially when weighed against the emotional and physical demands of the job. The work environment is poorly maintained, with cleanliness being a recurring problem. The facility does NOT look like those posted online. The children's bathrooms and common areas are often unsanitary, raising valid concerns about hygiene, safety, and the general quality of care. A particularly troubling practice is the use of personal items like wipes brought in for one child that get used on other children, without the caregiver's knowledge. Additionally, BTs are often left in the dark about health-related issues like lice until after the situation is already "handled," which puts both staff and other clients at risk. Unsurprisingly, the company suffers from a very high turnover rate, which reflects the broader issues within the organization and further destabilizes the workplace. Overall, they show little regard for employee well-being, professional development, or proper client care. Even by looking at the reviews the only 5 star reviews are for speech therapists, not from the work being done!

We are beyond grateful for the OT our child receives by Yashi (she's the best) . From the moment…read morehe started, it was clear how special these sessions would become to him. He genuinely looks forward to every class, and seeing his excitement and joy walking in says more than words ever could. The impact on his development has been incredible. We've seen growth not only in his sensory regulation and skills, but also in his confidence, engagement, and overall happiness. Every session is thoughtfully guided with patience, care, and a true understanding of who he is as an individual. We appreciate her more than we can fully express. Anyone who brings this much happiness, comfort, and progress into our child's life will always have a place in our hearts. We feel incredibly lucky to have found someone who cares so deeply and makes such a meaningful difference in our child's journey.

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.
