Pediatric Speech & OT in Oak Park, CA

Pediatric Speech & OT in Oak Park, CA

Oak Park is a small, tight-knit community with big expectations for its kids, which can make it even harder when you sense your child is struggling to keep pace with talking, handwriting, or handling a busy classroom. You’re not overreacting by paying attention. Therapy Clubhouse provides pediatric speech-language therapy and occupational therapy for Oak Park children from birth through age 18, in your home or by telehealth today, with a Westlake Village clinic opening nearby on November 1, 2026. Every family starts with a free 15-minute consultation with a licensed speech or occupational therapist: no obligation, just answers.

What can speech and occupational therapy help my Oak Park child with?

Speech therapy helps with late talking, unclear speech, stuttering, apraxia, social communication, and AAC for minimally speaking children. Occupational therapy helps with handwriting, fine-motor and sensory skills, self-regulation, coordination, and daily independence. When a child needs both, we combine them in one coordinated plan.

My child does well academically but struggles socially or with handwriting: is that common?

Very. A bright, capable child can still find friendships, self-regulation, or the physical act of writing genuinely hard, those are different skills from academics, and they respond beautifully to targeted support. Strengths in one area don’t cancel out a real need in another, and addressing it early keeps a small gap from widening.

Do you offer therapy in Oak Park: in-home and telehealth?

Yes. In-home visits and telehealth are available across Oak Park today, and our new clinic opens close by in Westlake Village on November 1, 2026. In-home sessions let your child practice in real routines and around Oak Park Unified school schedules; telehealth keeps things flexible for busy families.

Is the consultation free, and what’s the difference from an evaluation?

Yes. The 15-minute consultation is genuinely free and comes with no obligation, a conversation with a licensed therapist to answer your questions and suggest a next step. It is not an evaluation. If therapy is a fit, the next step is a comprehensive, play-based evaluation (we are private pay and out of network, and we provide superbills you can submit for possible reimbursement) that maps your child’s strengths and needs.

Can you support my child’s school or IEP?

Yes. Private therapy works alongside school services. Our occupational therapist has years of school-based experience and knows the IEP process, and private one-on-one sessions are more frequent and individualized than most school support. Many Oak Park families use both.

What if my child is under 3?

Children from birth to 36 months may qualify for Early Start through Tri-Counties Regional Center (TCRC), and Therapy Clubhouse is a vendored TCRC provider. Early support makes the most of the fastest years of development, about 1 in 6 children ages 3 to 17 has a developmental disability (CDC). Here’s how Early Start works.

When should I reach out?

Sooner is easier than later. If a worry has stuck around more than a few weeks, a free consultation either reassures you or gets support going. If a concern could be medical, start with your pediatrician and we’ll work alongside them.

Therapy Clubhouse was founded by two licensed pediatric clinicians and mothers, Nita Anavim, M.S., CCC-SLP, and Rachel Yashouafar, MA, OTR/L (USC-trained, certified in sensory integration).

Serving Oak Park families

We work with families across Oak Park and nearby Agoura Hills, Westlake Village, and Thousand Oaks.

Working alongside your Oak Park school team

Many Oak Park children attend schools in the Oak Park Unified School District. School based support and private therapy are not the same thing: school services are tied to how a child is doing in the educational setting and carry their own eligibility process, while private speech therapy and occupational therapy focuses on the goals you and your therapist set for your child. Plenty of families use both, and we are happy to coordinate with your school team when that helps.

Oak Park is in Ventura County, so Early Start runs through Tri-Counties

Because Oak Park sits in Ventura County, children under age 3 are served by Tri-Counties Regional Center, which covers Ventura, Santa Barbara, and San Luis Obispo counties. Therapy Clubhouse is a contracted Tri-Counties provider for Early Start speech therapy and occupational therapy. You do not need a doctor to refer you: a parent can call Tri-Counties directly at (800) 664-3177 to begin an Early Start referral, and we are glad to explain what to expect first.

How therapy actually works for Oak Park families

Right now we come to you. In-home sessions let your child practice new skills in the rooms where they already play, eat, dress, and do homework, which is often where families most want to see change. Telehealth is available when that fits your schedule better. Our Westlake Village clinic opens on November 1, 2026, adding a clinic option for Oak Park families who would rather come to us.
