Speech Therapy | Seven Bridges Therapy

Is your child struggling to communicate?

We understand the quiet anxiety of watching your child struggle to express themselves. You worry about their academic confidence, their ability to form deep friendships, and what their future holds. These concerns are well-founded: research shows children with untreated speech challenges are twice as likely to struggle with mental health and employment as adults.

Between navigating confusing insurance plans and managing busy Bay Area schedules, finding help feels like a second job. You don't need more stress; you need a clear, compassionate path forward.

What parents are saying

We’ve helped thousands of children find their voice and thousands of parents find peace of mind.
Here is what some of our local families have to say about their journey with the Seven Bridges Therapy team.

Our two-year-old loves Mega and looks forward to her speech therapy appointments. Mega has coached the rest of our family how to help Olivia on a daily basis develop her sounds and words.

J.B.

My son (now age 5) has been going to Seven Bridges for speech therapy since he was 2. I cannot explain in words how much our family has been affected by his experiences with the therapists. Every therapist has been extremely attentive to his needs and progress, helping him to continually make advances ...Read More

Imagine being in a foreign country full of lovely people who don’t understand a word you say but desperately want to please you so they keep trying all the wrong things to make you happy. Imagine trying really hard to tell them in any way possible what you are trying to say. Now imagine doing this ...Read More

Geraldine (parent to amazing 8 year old boy)

Our last session was difficult for me since I know how much N has bonded with Jodi. She has been a big part of his growth over the last year. I know a lot of the "games" not only helped his speech development, but his social skills at school and home. I really feel fortunate that we were able to ...Read More

M.E.

I have seen major strides in E's speech, presentation and confidence. Unprompted by me, last week her teacher said that E talks all the time. Over the past week, I have spent additional time in her classroom, and I was shocked at how E expresses herself.

L is doing incredibly well, thanks mainly to all your great work. His speech is completely normal and he is reading at an 8th grade level in 4th grade (he loves reading; he reads 3000 pages a week!). I cannot thank you enough for what you did for L.

Giselle is always upbeat, patient, and supportive. She's also creative and thoughtful in her approach. As parents, it's been great seeing our kid feel so much more confident in how she communicates... (She looks forward to her sessions every week, and Giselle feels like part of the family!

S.B.

We have had the pleasure of working with the wonderful Ms. Kacie for the past five years. The improvement in my daughter’s speech has been remarkable, but best of all she’s had so much fun learning and improving. We will always be so grateful for Kacie and couldn’t recommend her or Seven Bridges any more!

R.S.

Danielle is a wonderful speech therapist who is cheerful, energetic, playful, and kind. My son truly enjoyed working with her, both in-person and remote sessions. I greatly appreciate her ... practical advice for my family. I truly appreciate her professionalism, patience, and thoughtfulness. Also, I appreciate the scheduling process, which was very smooth.

Y.S.

Cannot say enough about Seven Bridges. My daughter was attending speech therapy sessions since she was 18 months old. She is now 5 and in kindergarten. She has “graduated” from speech therapy just recently 🙂 Staff... are some of the most sweetest genuine people I’ve ever come across in this field of work. My daughter blossomed with Olivia’s guidance... her suggestions were always helpful and insightful for us to practice grammar and speech at home. Such a warm and supportive environment. Forever thankful and appreciative for these hard working ladies and staff.

V.Z.

Leeat is exceptional! She goes above and beyond to get my ASD son to participate in his sessions which isn't always easy. She is excellent at collaborating with my son's school team, to make sure that my son reaches his speech goals.

M.L.

We absolutely loved Jay so much. He was super patient with my son who is on the spectrum. Ever since my son started sessions, we saw so much progress immediately. He started signing more and understanding what the signs meant. We would definitely recommend him to anyone looking for a great speech therapist. We hope to work with him in the future again. Thank you Jay!

R.D.

Absolutely amazing place for speech therapy, my son wasn’t really speaking or communicating but as soon as he started classes with Rachel he’s starting to talk and communicate. Love this place and would recommend it to anyone who needs this kind of service.

Y.P.

They have been instrumental in advancing my son's speaking capabilities, can't say enough good things about them.

C.H.

If you are looking for a speech therapist who is not only skilled and knowledgeable but also deeply compassionate and invested in her clients, we cannot recommend Mega enough. She is simply the best, and we feel so blessed to have had her on our journey.

S.K.

Ms. Julia is excellent. She takes her time with my son. She is patient and engaging. She is also great at improvising new strategies to interact with my son when he is being a little difficult. A+

D.P.

Ms. Nicole is AMAZING! She is not only a sweetheart to my child, but she’s equally as nice to his sibling. She is constantly giving me updates and suggestions as to what we can do to practice at home. She also asks me if I have any concerns or preferences. My son says she’s a great teacher and he loves playing all the games with her. SBT also has a very attentive scheduling department that is very helpful in those last minute changes and rescheduling has been a breeze.

J.R.

Where to even begin- Mega is an absolute incredible speech therapist and person. Our daughter worked with her during a two year period of time and made tremendous progress in her speech. When we started, our daughter was essentially non verbal… fast forward 2 years later and she is nearly caught up in her expressive language as a 5.5 year old. She also enjoyed attending the sessions and looked forward to her time ‘playing’ with Mega each week. The only reason we even stopped working with her is due to my daughter’s scheduling constraints. Cannot recommend her enough- She is fabulous.

J.G.

Seven Bridges Therapy has been great for my son. Everyone at SBT is helpful. The Finance & Scheduling departments are always willing to work with you and explain things. My son sees Calias. He’s been working with Cali for a little over a year. Cali is very knowledgeable and great at giving us tips to work with him at home. Most of all she is patient, understanding, and makes our son feel comfortable. She also is able to get him to work hard. We have seen tons of progress. We are grateful for Seven Bridges! Highly recommend!

J.L.

I am very pleased with the great progress that my son has made since attending speech therapy sessions. At 20 months old, he hardly spoke any words and was introduced to sign language. After attending bi-weekly sessions for over a year, he has opened up and improved in his language and vocabulary. Mega recognizes each child is unique and different

J.C.

The work you do changes lives and not one day passes that we do not recognize just how truly meaningful it is. Your passion for your profession is so evident and admirable.

D.C.

We would like to tell you how much improvement N has made since coming to you. N has been with other therapists before but no other ones have had the same success with him as you have. Your patience and ability to get him to say the words and phrases that you want him to, your enthusiasm and how you can communicate it to him are really impressive. On top of all that is your empathy and warmth to which N responds so well!

I was really concerned about his speech, possible Autism diagnosis, and lack social cues. I was also really concerned because this is completely out of pocket. However, this experience has been completely worth it. Nathan has improved tremendously over the last few months. He has mastered several ...Read More

Will I be involved in my child's therapy sessions?

Absolutely. We believe in a family-centered approach. Our SLPs work closely with parents to provide at-home strategies, ensuring the progress made in the clinic continues into your daily life.

Do you work with specific diagnoses such as autism or apraxia?

Yes. Our team consists of highly specialized SLPs with experience in a wide range of diagnoses, including ASD, childhood apraxia of speech, stuttering, and developmental delays. We tailor every roadmap to the specific clinical needs of the child.
