Therapy Rooted in Play, Connection, and Growth
Welcome to Shine Speech Therapy!
Every child has their own unique way of learning, connecting, and communicating. At Shine Speech Therapy, we meet children where they are, creating a safe, supportive space where they can build confidence, develop new skills, and enjoy the process of learning.
We provide individualized speech and language therapy in your child's natural environments — including in-home, daycare, or online. Our approach is play-based, neurodiversity affirming, and grounded in research.
Whether your child is just beginning to communicate or needs support developing new skills, we're here to partner with your family every step of the way.

Meet Your Therapist
Welcome! I’m Alyssa.
Hi, I’m Alyssa! I’m a licensed Speech-Language Pathologist in Orange County, CA.
I founded Shine Speech Therapy to build meaningful relationships with children and families and provide personalized support along their communication journey. Every child is unique, and I believe therapy should be thoughtfully tailored to each child, taking into account their strengths, interests, personality, and individual needs.
I support children across a variety of communication needs, with specialized experience in early intervention, speech sound disorders, Childhood Apraxia of Speech, and Gestalt Language Processing.
I love helping children express themselves and celebrating the unique ways they connect and communicate!
