We called Speech Perfect because we were really undecided on how to address our 5 month old son's…read moretongue tie. Gaby talked to my wife on the phone for 20 minutes and was extremely helpful, not even pushing us to book an appointment but truly just trying to help. We ended up scheduling an appointment for the next day. We came in with so many concerns and questions and a lot of anxiety around the decision of whether or not do a frenectomy. Both Gaby and Maria (occupational therapist) took their time with us, did a very thorough assessment with our son, made us feel a lot more at ease about the whole process and were extremely informative. They were so good with him and knew exactly what to look for. They shared lots of context and experience with us along the way. We felt like they had a very human and unbiased approach to everything, including sharing their own personal experiences as parents themselves. We came away feeling at peace about what to do next, which for us was to not to do the surgery and just focus on developmental exercises at home. The office was really cute, clean, and had a nice atmosphere too. My wife and I walked out and immediately said we have to write a review because it was such an incredible experience. Plus, this practice deserves way more reviews than it has! Thank you for really helping us out and making us feel so much better about a tough decision.

We found Gaby in June of 2023, shortly after our son turned four, and from their very first…read moremeeting, she made an immediate and comforting connection with him. She was incredibly kind, patient, and intuitive, which put both our son and us at ease. After just a few sessions, we began noticing our son using more language and becoming genuinely excited to communicate what he was learning with Gaby. He started expressing his wants and needs more confidently, which was such a meaningful milestone for our family. Gaby has truly been a godsend. She is professional, extremely knowledgeable, and has an amazing ability to meet our son exactly where he is while still encouraging growth. When we weren't able to bring our son to her clinic, she was more than willing to make house visits, which meant so much to us. After 2.5 years, our son has developed an incredible amount of language and is now able to speak much more clearly in full words and sentences. We strongly believe that true inclusion requires flexibility, generosity, and a willingness to meet children where they are while maintaining a growth mindset--and that is exactly what Gaby embodies. We are beyond grateful for her and highly recommend her services. We love you Ms. Gaby!

We just wrapped up as they turned 3 and we couldn't be happier with the results. Our therapist, Luiza was a dream to work with. She taught us alongside our girls, showing us how to model language for them, gave us handouts and answered all our questions along the way, which really helped their speech development between sessions. She came to our home to start, then switched to their preschool when we needed to start them in Daycare. They're now fully caught up to age level (and impressing all the adults in the room with how verbal they are). We can't recommend Milestone enough!

My 2.5 year old was approved to receive Speech Therapy through the Lanterman Regional Center. This…read morewas probably around August or September of 2017. I was so happy to get a call from Riner-Costantino & Associates to set-up and start speech for my son with Lauren. From his very first day to his very last...it has been the best experience. Lauren is very sweet and kind and so so so so SO patient. In the beginning, my husband was really resisting any type of therapy for our son...but now, just a few months later...he is very happy with the progress and results that he has seen. Before speech therapy (and Regional Center), my son only cared about flipping toy cars over and spinning it's wheels. He was never really engaged in activities. Through play, she was able to teach him how to play with cars like a car. She has taught him how to take turns. She's been able to get more eye contact from him. He is still non-verbal...but before speech therapy, he didn't even really babble that much either. NOW ~ he's babbling all the time. Especially if he's complaining about something. He's got a lot to say!!! And he's making new sounds. Before he goes to sleep I listen to him make "S" and "SHH" and "H" sounds. And I swear to you, I've even heard what sounds like a "thank you". I cried that day. We have a long way to go ~ but to see what she was able to bring out in our son!! JUST AMAZING!! And the best best best part is that my son LOVES Ms. Lauren. He was always excited for speech class. He was always excited to see his teacher. As soon as he would see her, his face would light up and he'd go up to her, reach for her hand and was ready to walk to the room for his session. He never wanted to leave actually. I will never forget Ms. Lauren and all the amazing things she's done with our son. The growth I've seen in him. We are so fortunate and grateful and thankful for Ms. Lauren and Riner-Costantino. She taught him so much more than speech and language. Now that my son is 3, we no longer get to see Ms. Lauren. But if we still could, trust me...we would!!

She gave me so much confidence even from our first telephone call that she would be a great fit for our son.

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.
