She has taught Annabelle how to roll over, crawl, stand, walk, balance, draw and so so so many other things. We are grateful she has been with us throughout the last 2 years and very much apart of Annabelle development. She has been a great person and friend. She is always professional and timely.

We've worked with several teachers for our kids so we have a good perspective when it comes to quality and Tara and Devori are top-notch - levels above most other teachers we've worked with. Their teaching methods, the tools they employ, their professionalism and care, and ultimately their effectiveness are truly remarkable. I wish all kids could work with teachers as good as they are. I could go on and on, but suffice it to say, I am overly impressed with them and thought it was important to recognize them formally via this email. They're exceptional and the progress I've seen out of my daughter since working with them is amazing. Thank you!!

Her level of skill and expertise is outstanding, and she has an intuitive ability to know exactly how to connect with each child and bring out the best in them. Beyond her talent, Naomi is unbelievably warm, friendly, and encouraging. She brings boundless energy and joy to her work--we call her the "Speech Therapy Miss Rachel." My husband said that he has never met anyone more enthusiastic about their job, and that enthusiasm is contagious. We adore her, trust her, and it's immediately clear how deeply she cares. Naomi consistently goes above and beyond. She even took the time to send me worksheets for my daughter who is NOT her client, simply because she wanted to help. That level of generosity, dedication, and heart is rare. We feel incredibly lucky to have worked with her and recommend her without hesitation to any family looking for a truly outstanding speech therapist.

As a doctor of psychology, I have been referring families to Achieve Speech Associates for over 10…read moreyears, and every single one of them has come back to me with 100% positive feedback. Ms. Naomi and her team are wonderful, and they get real results. From the very first phone call to the initial evaluations, everything they do is thorough and efficient. They don't just work with the individual during their sessions either; they give the families practical homework so the learning actually continues at home. They really do offer the full package. What stands out to me the most as a professional is how willing they are to collaborate. Even though they are incredibly busy, they always make it a priority to sit down for meetings with families and other professionals to make sure everyone is on the same page. That team effort is exactly why they have such a great success rate. I will never forget when one of the mutual clients texted me "Thank you for sending us to Naomi, we finally feel heard, seen, understood and have HOPE."

Around 4 he was almost right where he should be for his age range. We continued our sessions as we wanted to complete other goals with his speech. I'm so grateful to have Mackenzie as my son's speech therapist. Mackenzie's kindness, resourcefulness and enthusiasm are bar none. Which is probably why my son is always so excited to see her. I'll never forget one my son's first sessions with her, he brought along a toy truck. She improvised the session to include the toy truck that he brought, which I thought was above and beyond. Highly recommend!

Now, a year later at age 4, He's talking more, expressing himself better, and his confidence has grown so much. His therapists, Ms. Kenzie and Ms. Emily, are incredible -- patient, caring, and very skilled. But what truly stands out is that the entire Santa Monica team operates with the same level of kindness, professionalism, and inclusivity. Everyone there is welcoming and supportive from the moment you walk in. They work with children of all abilities and all types of speech disorders, including kids with autism, ASL users, and children who communicate with AAC devices. They are respectful, inclusive, and meet each child right where they are. They also involve the whole family, offering guidance and tools so we can support our son at home. My son feels safe, understood, and excited for his sessions each week. Their flexibility with scheduling -- whether in-person or Zoom -- has been a huge help for our busy family. I truly can't say enough good things about this entire team. They've made such a positive difference in my son's communication and overall confidence. Highly recommend to any parent seeking caring and inclusive speech therapy.

Their progress has been nothing short of remarkable--far exceeding what we experienced with previous therapists. Mariah is our fifth speech therapist, and she's truly the most effective we've ever had. In just six weeks, she's helped our children more than any of the others, some of whom worked with them for 1-2 years at a time. I'm so grateful we found Kyra, and that she connected us with Mariah--she is an absolute gem! The entire experience has been fantastic. What I love most is how supportive and compassionate Mariah is. Her deep commitment and genuine care for our children's speech improvement is something truly rare these days. It's clear she's deeply motivated to see them progress, and she makes learning fun for them. This means the world to us. We've been so impressed that we've decided to increase their sessions from once a week to two or three times for quicker progress. Mariah also noticed my willingness to help and thoughtfully suggested compiling homework for me to work on with the kids between sessions--a wonderful extra touch. I have complete trust in her expertise and guidance. Mariah will forever be our favorite speech therapy angel. Thank you!

Not only did our son have incredible success and improvement with Sara (he barely has "bumpy speech" anymore and when he does, he has tools to help with it) but also her knowledge, approach, demeanor and vibe was fantastic and comforting to us.

She gave me so much confidence even from our first telephone call that she would be a great fit for our son. Sara was so helpful in educating us more about stuttering and she empowered my son with knowledge and information to better understand his own stuttering. She is knowledgeable about the most up to date research and techniques in speech therapy and she is very aware of the social emotional needs of clients like my son who are struggling with their speech. Sara's sessions are engaging, varied, well thought out and prepared. She is engaged in what she does and really cares. Her office is inviting and warm, but even as we recently switched to doing our sessions remotely/virtual, she has been doing an amazing job at keeping the sessions just as engaging and relevant to our son. We have seen a lot of improvement in my son's confidence over these last few months and are so appreciative for how Sara has helped him.
