Natalie and her son

Who we are.

Well Spoken Speech & Language Therapy was borne out of a passion for delivering quality, individualized therapy that is convenient for families. Natalie Waldman, Owner and Speech-Language Pathologist (SLP), provides all services as part of her boutique private practice.  Now you can rest assured that an experienced Speech-Language Pathologist, not an assistant, works with your child. Natalie is known for using the latest scientific evidence, and a spirit of positivity and fun to help her clients achieve “aha!” communication moments. 

Natalie is a mother herself and knows how hectic after school schedules can get. For your convenience and your child's comfort, therapy is offered via teletherapy for California residents or in-person at your child's home or school in Costa Mesa and surrounding areas. No more extra after school drop offs!
