Speech Bananas - Los Alamitos, California

My daughter has been a client at speech bananas for years now and we are extremely pleased with her speech pathologist. Her pathologist understands our daughter and her struggles and works well in teaching and keeping her engaged.

The office staff is very caring and will go out of there way to accommodate you if a time/date restriction may arise.

They have handled the Covid-19 restrictions extremely well by going virtual very swiftly. I believe my daughter missed just 1 of her week sessions while they transitioned to virtual sessions. And we have been very pleased with the outcome of the virtual sessions as well.

Taking my son to his first session a few years ago i will not lie i was nervous because it was a whole new experience for our family. Everyone at speech bananas made us feel welcomed. I highly recommend you give them a call if you're looking for speech therapists. They are flexible and are willing to work with your schedule to make sure your child gets the help they need. My son loves his therapist, Allison. I like how she really tries to get to know her kids well and has different methods to keep them focused. We are currently doing telatherapy, it was an adjustment for my son but Allison has been such a great teacher she’s made it fun for him.

Our son has been receiving speech therapy services for over three years. We have always had positive experiences and we see the consistent progress in my little one. The environment is always friendly, fun, positive, respectful, and clean. At the start of the COVID -19 pandemic, Speech Bananas smoothly transitioned us from in office sessions to tele therapy immediately. It was a very smooth and easy process. Thank you Speech Bananas for always being so patient with my son’s challenges. Peace and Blessings 😊😊😊

Speech Bananas has one of the Top therapists we have in this domain. Miss Claire an AVT SLP who understands the requirements of the kids with specific needs and provides best therapy.
Also the best thing is they will listen to your feedback/needs and help you in those things.
They are a great team as well in helping families getting best sessions (coming up with new ways of home training) through virtual platforms during this tough times. Overall we have a great experience and seeing good progress with our kid.

My son has been going to speech bananas for a year now and he has learned so much. He was so shy when we first started attending and he has opened up so much since then. Ms.Jenny the receptionist is wonderful and so nice . She is always so accommodating with me and my son’s schedule. My son has had the pleasure of working with a couple of different therapist. Barry, Ms.Miranda, and Ms.Claire are awesome and so patient with my son. Ms.Jenny is always so helpful and always has resources available to help with my son’s needs. And she truly care about her families. I will continue to bring my son to speech Bananas and I know he will continue to grow and learn while having fun.

Speech Bananas has changed the trajectory of my granddaughter's life. They have provided quality Auditory-Verbal Therapy (AVT) allowing her to develop speech and language and the confidence to use it! They attend her IEPs and collaborate with her private preschool staff to ensure everybody understands her needs. I work in the public schools and know many speech therapists, audiologists and deaf & hard of hearing teachers. Speech Bananas is held in high regards by these professionals. I am consistently impressed with how prepared Claire is every session and how she is able to motivate this sometimes stubborn young child to work. Because AVT encourages family participation in sessions, we are always learning new techniques to use at home. We recently discovered that she may need cochlear implants. Our family is so grateful to have the expert therapists at Speech Bananas to help with this transition. I highly recommend Speech Bananas and am grafeful for Jenny, the owner, and her highly trained therapists.

My son has been seeing Mr. Barry for a bit over 6 months now and I couldn’t have asked for a better teacher. He went from only saying a handful of words at 4 years old to now 6 months later speaking in intelligible sentences. The staff is amazing and extremely helpful. They work with my schedule if I need to cancel and reschedule. Not only are they helping my son with his speech delay but they have also given me the tools needed to help and understand my child more at home.

I love Speech Bananas. We’ve been working with Allison and she is truly a gem. My son now can tell whole stories whereas he barely spoke a word 8 months ago. I cannot recommend this place enough.
