Testimonials

I have high praise for the staff at Victoria Speech and Language.

My SLP and OT are both lovely, professional, highly qualified, punctual and they have a genuine interest in helping our son reach his full potential. It is always a pleasure to attend his sessions. The front desk staff are warm and helpful. Carla is energetic, organized, friendly and always available if we have questions.

I've been taking my 8yr old son here for over 5 months and it has been a wonderful experience!

They are professional, the office is clean and top-notch. We have been seeing Lucy for speech, because my son was missing some sounds. She has helped him come such a long ways with such ease. They learn a lot through games and fun ideas. She's always so welcoming to him when we arrive and he really likes his sessions.

All the ladies here are amazing. Great communication. Easy to find. Lots of parking!

Carla helped us out to find funding where I didnt think I would qualify for. She answered all my questions and was very informative. My son loved working with Yvette. She was silly and made him laugh. She would get on the floor and make learning fun. She had patience when he was having an off day. Very flexible with our busy schedule. Definitely recommend this place.

I can’t rate VSLC highly enough! Definitely the best services for speech and OT on the Island.

Carla recruits truly incredible staff. We have been working with Caitlin and Shannon so far who are both skilled and dedicated to helping their clients. They go above and beyond to build connection with my daughter and help her feel more at ease in sessions which is no small feat! They are willing to collaborate with other professionals on our team and try different approaches to prevent her from shutting down while gently expanding her boundaries and teaching new skills.The progress and growth we have seen so far is remarkable and well worth every penny. In fact, I’ll be forever indebted to them for their support. If you are looking for speech and/or OT services, this is definitely the best place to go!

Transformational - the simplest way to describe our family's experience with this clinic.

There is an incredible positive energy that emanates from the caring, knowledgeable staff that makes success inevitable. Our therapist connected with our child (diagnosed with ASD) almost immediately and is so supportive she feels like family. The guidance we have received has been so practical and easy to apply, and has made such a difference in our child's life - both at home and at school. Instead of anxiety, we now look to our child's future with excitement. E.L.

so much about myself in a short time already!

I have a much better understanding of my sensory profile as well as what things I need to do to self-regulate, and how to communicate those needs to others. These things, combined with an increased awareness of when I'm heading towards overload and shutdown or meltdown, have already helped me to avoid getting to that point as often as I used to. We have also worked on multiple different options for me to be able to communicate when I am unable to speak, which makes what was before a very unsafe situation feel a lot more manageable and safe.
