Maybe drop-off at your Simi Valley preschool comes with a knot in your stomach. Maybe your child isn’t talking like the others, or covers their ears and melts down when the room gets loud. You don’t have to keep guessing. Therapy Clubhouse provides pediatric speech-language therapy and occupational therapy for Simi Valley children from birth through age 18, through in-home visits and telehealth today, with a Westlake Village clinic opening on December 1, 2026. Every family starts with a free 15-minute consultation with a licensed speech or occupational therapist: no obligation, just answers to your questions.
As of October 2026, the timeline is short. Expect an evaluation within 3 business days of your free call, and a first session as soon as 5 days after you call, for in-home and telehealth. On request, an evaluation can be done in a private office on Townsgate Road in Westlake Village.

What does pediatric speech therapy in Simi Valley help with?
Speech therapy helps children understand language, speak clearly, and connect with others. Our speech-language pathologist works with Simi Valley families on late talking, hard-to-understand speech, stuttering, childhood apraxia of speech, social communication, and AAC for children who are minimally speaking, and we coach you on simple ways to build language into everyday routines at home.
For more detail, read about pediatric speech therapy in Simi Valley and pediatric occupational therapy in Simi Valley. For an evaluation, see pediatric speech evaluation in Simi Valley or pediatric OT evaluation in Simi Valley.
What does pediatric occupational therapy in Simi Valley help with?
Occupational therapy builds the fine-motor, sensory, and self-regulation skills behind everyday life: handwriting, using scissors and utensils, coping with noise and textures, coordination, and independence with dressing and school routines. If your child avoids coloring, seems clumsier than their peers, or is easily overwhelmed, an OT evaluation can help you understand why.
How do I know if my child needs therapy?
Trust what you notice: few words by age two, speech strangers can’t understand by age three, trouble with handwriting, strong reactions to sound or textures, or lost skills. You don’t need a diagnosis to ask. Speech sound differences are common: the NIDCD estimates 8 to 9% of young children have a speech sound disorder. A concern about speech doesn’t mean something is wrong; it just means it’s worth a look.
Do you offer in-home therapy and telehealth in Simi Valley?
Yes, we offer both in-home and telehealth therapy in Simi Valley. Simi Valley is in our home-visit area, and telehealth is available today. Our in-person clinic opens in Westlake Village on December 1, 2026. In-home sessions let your child practice in familiar routines, and telehealth keeps therapy consistent around Simi Valley Unified school and work schedules.
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. It is a conversation with a licensed therapist to answer your questions and point you to the next step. It is not an evaluation. If therapy looks like a fit, the next step is a comprehensive, play-based evaluation (insurance can be used through Village, or you can pay privately with a superbill for possible reimbursement) that maps your child’s strengths and needs. You don’t need a diagnosis to begin.
What if my child is under 3?
Children from birth to 36 months in Ventura County may qualify for Early Start through Tri-Counties Regional Center (TCRC), and Therapy Clubhouse is a vendored TCRC provider. For context, about 1 in 6 children ages 3 through 17 has one or more developmental disabilities (CDC). See how early intervention and Early Start work.
Can you support my child’s school or IEP?
Yes, we can support your child's school plan or IEP. Private therapy works alongside school services. Our occupational therapist has years of school-based experience and knows the IEP process.
Not sure if your child needs therapy?
Start with a free 15 minute consultation. No commitment, just clarity on whether your child would benefit and what the next step looks like.

Serving Simi Valley families
Working alongside your Simi Valley school team
Simi Valley Unified School District has public schools in Simi Valley. 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 focus on the goals you and your therapist set for your child. The two can work side by side, and with your written consent we are happy to coordinate with your school team.
Simi Valley is in Ventura County, so Early Start may come through Tri-Counties
Because Simi Valley sits in Ventura County, a child under age 3 who qualifies may receive Early Start through 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 to begin an Early Start referral, and you are welcome to call us with questions.
How therapy actually works for Simi Valley families
Right now, therapy for Simi Valley families happens in your home or by telehealth. In-home sessions let your child practice new skills in the rooms where they already play, eat, dress, and do homework. Telehealth is available when that fits your schedule better. Our Westlake Village clinic opens on December 1, 2026, adding a clinic option for Simi Valley families who would rather come to us.

Speech therapy and occupational therapy in one practice
Some children need help learning to talk. Others need help with handwriting, coordination, or coping with noise and textures. Many need both. Therapy Clubhouse is led by Nita Anavim, M.S., CCC-SLP, and Rachel Yashouafar, MA, OTR/L, so a family who needs speech and occupational therapy can arrange both through one practice instead of managing two providers, two intake processes and two schedules.
The first step is a free 15-minute consultation with a licensed therapist. Call (805) 702-3427 or send a message.
