The TALK Team: Creating communication for all children

The TALK Team: Creating communication for all children The TALK Team: creating communication for all children... opened in 2006, The TALK Team focuses on the whole child and all areas of communication!

We are certified and licensed speech language pathologists and behavior analysts with over 20 years of collective experience. We currently offer individual therapy sessions focusing on language development, early intervention, feeding, oral placement and apraxia, articulation, language and literacy, fluency/stuttering, and behavior management. We incorporate movement, physical play, multisensory input, and hands-on activities into speech and language development. We utilize a variety of research based methods and behavioral strategies in each individualized session. Our main goal in therapy is that our clients learn while having fun! We are also available for consultation, IEP support and review, contract school services, parent education, and professional development training.

Testing a TK student this week...
Question: “Why do you go to school?”
Him (after serious thought):
“To shake my booty.”

Happy Monday Morning!
The calm before the storm… (our favorite kind of storm!)

Everything’s in its place… tiny toys nested in their containers, shelves perfectly lined, and our little kitchen gleaming… but by the end of the week? Laughter, sounds, pretend play, and a whirlwind of words will take over! (Mess implied. But very important mess!)

Here’s to a week of fun, play, and all the language magic that happens at TALK.

Outside-the-Box
When our TALK SLPs need true outside-the-box therapy ideas, we pow-wow 🧠✨

Miss Bethanie pulled out a throwback gem—using the 2012 mustache trend to get her kiddo to actually watch her mouth instead of everything else in the room 🤣
Articulation practice never felt so silly… or so effective!

Tell us your most out-of-the-box therapy technique or tricks, and keep the creativity flowing for other SLPs and SLPAs! 👇🏻

Life right now is no fairytale for any of us…

Here’s today’s wish:
May our biggest worries be Goldilocks-sized-porridge temperature, chair size- nothing bigger.

Until then, we’ll keep creating spaces where kids get to just be kids ❤️

🎓 Speech Graduation Spotlight

This one’s a BIG celebration.
This kiddo has been part of our speech family since he was just 3 years old, and what a journey it’s been.

From day one, he brought the energy - especially when it came to playing games outside and making it his personal mission to get more clicker clicks (aka trials!) than anyone else. Competitive? Just a little 😜Motivated? Absolutely.

Behind all the fun was consistent effort, growth, and a whole lot of hard work. He showed up, practiced, tried again, and kept going, and this week, that work paid off.

We are SO proud of him and everything he’s accomplished. Speech graduation, earned.

Help us celebrate this student and his family in the comments! 👏🏻

POV: Returning to work after break as a Special Ed provider

“This isn’t people… it’s animals… California animals…” 😆

SLPs. BCBAs. RBTs. Psychs. RSPs. OTs.
Walking straight into the beautiful chaos-
the noise, the movement, the big feelings, the unexpected dance parties.

And honestly? We missed it.
We missed them.
Our school providers are so excited to see their kiddos, hear their voices, celebrate progress (big and small), and jump back into the work that fills our cups!

Our Story

Amber and Amy started The TALK Team to allow for the growth and potential of ourselves as therapists and our clients as communicators. We are dually certified as speech language pathologists and board certified behavior analysts. The blend of these two approaches has taught us a variety of ways to teach a vast amount of skills. We have had the opportunity to train 9 AMAZING therapists with the techniques that we have learned over the last 20 years along with the highly individualized skills that each has brought to TALK.

We have learned the value not only of communication itself, but thinking outside of the box to create a comprehensive, play based approach that is individualized for each child that we meet. We hold paramount that the more fun we have, the more fun our clients will have, and the more successful they will become. So let’s learn to have more fun!!

This is a place where you will find ideas and inspiration. We firmly believe that every child can communicate and flourish, when provided with the right environment. We believe that parents are their child’s first and most important teacher and we are dedicated to providing tools and ideas to help you along your journey. Every child has the capability to learn and grow and become a functional communicator! Communication is what allows us to access our environment. It is the most important skill that a child can learn. Without communication, all other skills become less functional. Children may have a ton of information and ideas but if they can’t express them, they are left untouched.
