Specialty Speech and Language Therapy
for Children and Young Adults in the Bay Area
Personalized care on your schedule.
Peninsula Specialty Speech Therapy provides high-quality, evidence-based services which are tailored to meet the unique needs of each individual. Our small-scale model allows us to devote more time to the needs and goals of each patient and to develop strong relationships with our patient families.
We specialize in working with children and young adults who would benefit from a highly skilled approach or those who have urgent needs requiring a timely response. This includes children with complex medical backgrounds, children with brain injuries (including concussion, TBI, stroke, seizure disorders, and brain tumors), or children with executive functioning deficits as related to ADHD or Autism. We aim to empower young individuals to achieve their fullest potential.
Based out of Menlo Park, we provide in-home services across the greater peninsula and telehealth services across California.

General speech and language therapy services are available to address the communication needs of children who would benefit from in-home or virtual services. These may include articulation, expressive language, auditory processing, or functional communication concerns. Our team has significant experience working with a wide range of abilities, including care for children with medically complex needs.
During summer months and as scheduling allows throughout the year, Peninsula Specialty Speech Therapy also offers intensive speech language therapy in the form of two-week blocks with daily therapy sessions. Sessions focus on maximizing functional outcomes in a reduced time frame. Contact us to learn more!

Post-concussion recovery is a critical time for children and teens, and specialized support can make a significant difference. Our services focus on assisting with the Return to Learn process, helping students transition back to academic environments safely and effectively. We conduct thorough assessments and treatment for cognitive symptoms that may arise after a concussion, addressing issues such as attention, memory, and processing speed. Additionally, we provide recommendations for school accommodations tailored to individual needs, ensuring that students receive the support necessary to thrive academically. Our goal is to empower young individuals to regain their cognitive function and succeed in their academic environment following a concussion.
