Speech Source - Speech Therapist Los Angeles

My four-year-old son Elijah was diagnosed with Autism at two years old. He has been attending Speech Source Therapy for over a year and a half now. Irene was amazing with assisting us in starting his services right away. Since the beginning we were very happy with the support and therapy he received! Once the covid-19 pandemic hit my husband and I were worried about how we would continue to get him the help he needed. After discussing it with my husband, we decided to give teletherapy a shot. Speech Source transitioned us into teletherapy via Zoom and we could not have been happier with the decision! Throughout the past five months Elijah's language development has been flourishing! We're constantly hearing him produce more sounds, say more words, and he's even been able to tell me " I love you" a few times. As a parent of a child who was considered nonverbal when diagnosed, those were the most beautiful words I've heard in my life. Elijah enjoys interacting with his therapist, doing the interactive learning videos, and the fun activities his therapist plans for session. I highly recommend giving teletherapy a chance as I have seen great progress with my son. It's very important to give our children a routine, support, and stability during these times to aid in their learning. We are forever grateful to our therapist Jessica and Speech Source Therapy for all of their dedication and support in helping Elijah. My husband and I are very excited for the future and to see our son progress.

My son has a speech delay and needed to go to a Center based program an early intervention program or a place that can get him ready for school and for him to also learn how to socialize with other kids. This place is not just to get one on one Speech therapy or one on one Occupational therapy it is also a Center based program for little kids ages 18-36 months it has a Preschool setting for little kids. My husband and I wanted a place for my son that is like a Preschool that has a structured curriculum and not just like a daycare, we've looked at the other places and with the other places you just drop off your kid and leave them for four hours it was more of a daycare place and they did not really have a school like setting, although that sounded nice and I would have a break for a few hours we were not ready to leave him in a daycare because he fuzzes a lot sometimes when I change his diaper and I just think it would be difficult for someone else to change him, also he gets frustrated when you can't understand what he wants and will throw himself on the floor or throw a big tantrum. We were about to give up on finding the right place for our son until we went to "Little Learners" Early Intervention Program at 4311 Wilshire Blvd. Suite 200 outside you will probably say is this a Preschool it doesn't look like one but wait till you get inside they are located on the 2nd floor, and it was exactly what my son needs, they had a Preschool like setting, it really looked like a classroom, they have a Structured Curriculum, they had 4 teachers that are also specialist's, one is a Speech therapist, a Child Development Specialist, an Occupational therapist, they also do one on one Speech therapy and one on one Occupational therapy on children if your child needs it. And not just that, just when you think it can't get any better "they let the parents stay in a waiting room where you can watch your kid while he/she is inside the classroom" 'yes mom's you can watch you kid slowly get use to the idea of you not being around all the time and also you can adjust to the fact that someday you would have to let go of your precious one to the real world. But what I like about this place the most is the wonderful staff, from the School Director Ms. Elizabeth Aguirre to the teachers Javier, Marian, Melissa and Marianne they are so nice and so professional and so good and kind to all the kids, I know it sounds too good to be true but it is and I would confidently recommend this place to anyone because I've seen some improvement already with my son since he started going to this school and he just started. He loves going to school, most kids hate going to school but he loves it. If only there was a way to request this school to have more than just three days a week of school and longer hours I would be one of the people who would make a petition letter myself and make every parent I know sign it.

The speech therapist are good but parking is $16 an hour.

The speech therapist is really good place :)
