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.

I 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.

Finally, 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.

An amazing speech therapist and sweet human being. She helped our son with his speech issues. By the end of his first session he was so improved. Our son has gained his confidence back. Can't thank you enough. Absolutely recommend!

I 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!

Shab is amazing! She is ,patient, knowledgeable and dedicated. The work that Shab has been doing with my mom has built up her self-esteem and her will to continue on. Thank you Shab for always caring and showing my mom love and compassion.

Shab is truly the best! She has helped my loved one regain swallowing and eating abilities after a long rehab. She is very skillful and very professional. My family and I highly recommend her! If we could give her more stars, we definitely would!

Shab is very professional, kind and friendly. She came to our house and spent time with my father in order to help him recovery. Her guidance became a turning point and game changer for my father's treatment. My father was able to fully recover at the end. We really appreciate Shab.

Shab 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!!!!

Shad was amazing. Her positive attitude really helps in my dad's recovery. She is helping him with aphasia and assisting with techniques to help him swallow. I recommend her and her services.

Shab is so helpful, wise, and patient. Very experienced in all types of speech forms. Saw her work for years in improving a patient with aphasia.

Shab is good speech therapist for my brother allan, and she always on time thank you so much for her service.. Gladly appreciated a lot..

Amazing. Everyone can benefit from a session. Shab gives her heart and soul with each exercise & her explanation to maximize the results. I love every minute word by word.

Shab helped me to speak after my stroke.

Shab 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
