Talk – Teaching and Assessing Language For Kids

This is one of the best places for your kids to start getting help with speech and social interaction, and OT (YAY!) I love this place, my son loves his teachers, activities and friends. The staff is very knowledgeable, professional and caring. I wish my school can get excited to see me for IEP as TALK for teacher/​parent meeting. LOL
I wish they helped more with insurance, but I get it requires staffing and time.
And email communication would be nice, since i am better at that, but its just me
Nut overall, you will not regret starting with them. Just be patient. dont expect your child will give Nobel Prize speech next day, but trust me s/​he will speak.
Thank you guys for all your support through all those years and crazy days. Thank you for caring for Yuri. Thank you for making it all come true.

Two years ago my little girl could not speak. She had her own very cryptic language that even as her Mother, I had an almost impossible time interpreting. Discouraged with insurance companies and feeling dismissed by doctors, I found TALK in Burlingame and FINALLY felt heard when I met Alexia.
The confidence Alexia showed in her work made me feel at ease and assured in the information/​prognosis I was given. There is a great balance of professionalism and a playful, inviting atmosphere that secured my belief in the care that my child would receive. All the therapists are kind, warm, smart women, who feel like friends, and my daughter has liked working with them all.
TALK has been such a tremendous resource for me in other areas of my daughters learning and development, and they are always up to date with the latest and current therapies. Along with speech problems, my little girl also struggles with sensory issues (related and non– related to speech) that the staff has always been mindful of and thoughtfully incorporated into treatments plans to help support her as an individual! They have provided such a support for me, just as a parent with a special needs child that I have come to rely on and trust.
My daughter is now completely intelligible, continuing to meet her goals and she still has the ability to shock me in her progress. I truly don’t know where she would be today without the help of the amazing staff at TALK. I would recommend to anyone, with the highest regard, to schedule a consultation and meet the wonderful staff for yourself.
I don’t think I could ever really express my full gratitude for what they have helped my daughter, my whole family accomplish. We love you TALK!

We were referred to TALK by our dentist, who spoke very highly of Alexia. Our son has a tongue thrust, trouble with many sounds and much of his speech was unintelligible. We have been beyond thrilled with our experience. We have been taking our 4 year old boy for over 2 months and there is already marked improvement in his speech. He speaks slower, clearer and is literally learning the proper tongue placement for speaking correctly. Alexia and her team were able to pick up on other issues going on with his language (that we didn’t realize) and have come up with a plan to reach realistic and very specific goals. The overall atmosphere is positive, optimistic and kid-​friendly. Alexia purposely has us working with more than one therapist, and our son adores the whole team. I really thought it would be a struggle to get him to go to Speech twice a week, but he is always happy to go and seems eager to please his «teachers». The improvement is really amazing and we feel lucky to have found TALK.
