I was diagnosed with Parkinson’s a few years ago and had difficulty with both my speech and swallowing so my neurologist recommended Shab, and I can’t thank her enough because after working with her I’ve regained control over my speech and swallowing is no longer an issue and her approach is so personalized and thorough. She always takes the time to explain each exercise and makes me feel supported every step of the way so because of Shab the result is that I’m now able to enjoy meals again without fear, and I can clearly communicate with my family. I’m truly grateful for her help! Thank you so much.
Fiona SI had a stroke 4 years ago and I was not able to speak, read, or write. I also had cognitive deficits such as memory and problem solving. After 4 years of working hard closely with Shab twice a week, I got my life back socializing, speaking and etc. we are still working on memory, inferences, and problem solving. This is the next step to my independency. She is very dedicated and goes beyond and above only a therapist. Her empathetic, positive, and compassionate attitudes helped enjoy my life and regulate my emotion and focus on therapy and become better. I totally recommend her. Thank you Shab.
DannyFinally, after searching for a speech therapist who treats adults suffering with dysarthria, I found Shabnam Amiri, MS, CCP-SLP, at Speech Plan in Encino. Shab is wonderful! She is thoughtful, caring, methodical, and tailors her treatment to the individual. After only being in treatment with her for 3 months, I feel that I have made significant progress.
Marilyn FI highly recommend Speech Plan if you need a highly skilled speech/swallow therapist. The therapist who came to our home and treated my husband was excellent! He has advanced Parkinson’s and has great difficulty swallowing. The therapist was highly experienced, extremely kind and patient, and delightful to work with. She was truly amazing! My husband responded very well to her gentle touch and her lovely, radiant smile made him feel cared for and at ease. She educated me and my husband’s caregivers about how to adjust his posture for greater ease of swallowing, how to massage/relax his extremely tight neck muscles, how to best feed him, and how to strengthen his tongue and swallowing muscles. She was a shining light and a huge delight to work with! I’m very impressed with the quality of the therapists who work for Speech Plan and highly recommend this company!
Carol WShab has been working with my husband for almost 6 months after his stroke. My husband has made great strides in regaining his speech. Shab is so kind, patient & encouraging, even when he feels that he's not making progress. She never gets frustrated, always accommodates our schedule & I truly believe that my husband would not be as far along in his progress without her devotion to her patients. We LOVE her!!!!
Jan SShab has helped me a lot, in speech and in the movement of the muscles in my face, especially in my mouth, so I would like her to come to my house again to help me, because they have not yet removed the tube from my mouth. tracheostomy and when they remove it, Shan will continue helping me so I can talk. Thank you for all your attention, Shab is excellent at his job. Sincerely: Olivier Mendoza Martinez
