Meet The Owner

Melissa Del Pino M.S., CCC-SLP, CBIS is a native-born Angeleno and Speech-Language Pathologist. Fluent in English and Spanish, she has strategically worked in a variety of settings to ensure her experience is versatile.

In 2020, she began as a private practitioner in order to accommodate her desire to work with more families in underserved communities, and make an impact in the lives of many who struggle with speech and language disorders.

When she’s not immersed in her love of speech, you can find her in the great outdoors camping with her husband, spending time with family and friends, cultivating her garden, or at home with an audiobook on and a cozy cup of tea in her hands.

“I work with each client and their caregivers to ensure they get the best care possible. I’m committed to the continued improved communication of every individual I engage in therapy, and treat them with a thoughtful and personalized approach.”

-Melissa Del Pino M.S., CCC-SLP, CBIS

Services Provided in English and Spanish

  • Adults

    A need for improved communication can impact daily life and ideal functioning in social and professional spaces. We can address communicative disorders with individualized speech therapy, resulting in a notable improvement in communication skills and overall quality of life.

  • Pediatrics

    Whether your child is demonstrating a delay in language acquisition, is difficult to understand, makes frequent repetitions in sounds or words when speaking, or needs support with their social-communication skills, we can work with you to address their needs.

  • AAC

    Children and adults with complex communication needs may need to find other ways to communicate besides speaking verbally. Some use Augmentative and Alternative Communication (AAC) throughout their life while others may use AAC only for a short time. Let us help you find your voice!

  • Head Injuries

    Our TBI and concussion rehabilitation services help individuals experiencing changes in thinking and communication following a brain injury. Treatment focuses on functional skills such as attention, memory, processing speed, executive functioning, word finding, and cognitive fatigue. Using evidence-based, neuroplasticity-informed strategies, we help clients develop practical tools to improve independence and confidently return to everyday activities, school, work, and community life.
