Leslie Whitaker, MA, CCC-SLP

Hi families! I’m Leslie, a pediatric speech-language pathologist offering virtual speech and language therapy throughout California. My goal is to make therapy sessions engaging, effective, and tailored to your child’s unique communication needs. With over 20 years of experience across school, home, and private practice settings, I bring specialized training in PROMPT for motor speech disorders, Social Thinking®, Hanen’s It Takes Two to Talk®, and reading interventions like Lindamood Bell’s LiPs and Visualizing and Verbalizing. I’m passionate about helping children and young adults build confidence and real-world communication skills in a supportive, neurodiversity-affirming environment.
