Welcome!

I’m Gabriela De Leon, bilingual Speech-Language Pathologist, and owner of Little Sparrows Speech Therapy PLLC. My mission is to equip parents to become their child’s communication partner, speech coach, and play partner. I want parents to feel equipped, supported, and confident engaging with their child, supporting their child’s communication, and coaching their child through difficult or unintelligible speech.

What I Do

At Little Sparrows Speech Therapy, services are designed to support children’s communication development in natural, meaningful environment. Therapy sessions are child-led, individualized, evidence-based, and neuro-affirming, ensuring each child’s strengths, interests, and unique needs are honored.

Services are provided in home, daycare, and private school settings, allowing children to practice communication skills in the environments where they naturally learn and interact.

Therapy is available in English and Spanish, and families who speak other languages are welcome.

Frequently Asked Questions:

  • Little Sparrows Speech Therapy is a private pay practice and is considered an out-of-network provider.

    Choosing a private pay model allows us to:

    • Provide highly individualized care

    • Avoid limitations set by insurance companies

    • Offer flexible session lengths and frequency

    • Maintain a smaller caseload and higher quality of care

  • Private speech therapy offers several benefits:

    • More individualized and personalized care

    • Greater flexibility in scheduling and treatment plans

    • Consistency with the same therapist

    • More time spent on treatment and family collaboration

    Through my private practice, I am able to focus on quality over quantity, which often leads to stronger therapeutic relationships and better outcomes for your child.

  • No. A formal diagnosis is not required to begin services.

    If you have concerns about your child’s communication skills, we can complete an evaluation and determine whether support is recommended. If appropriate, I will give a diagnosis at that time.

  • Frequency varies based on your child’s needs and will be determined at the evaluation. Most children benefit from:

    • 1–2 sessions per week

    I will collaborate with you to determine the best schedule for your child and family.

  • This depends on several factors, including:

    • Your child’s individual needs

    • Consistency of attendance

    • Practice at home

    Some children meet their goals in a few months, while others benefit from longer-term support. Progress is a collaborative process.

  • Little Sparrows Speech Therapy serves children, tweens, and teens from ages 1-18 years of age. Please reach out if your child falls outside of this age range and you are interested in services.

  • Yes! Private therapy can complement school-based services and provide additional support in areas that may not be addressed in the school setting. Most children benefit from school support as well as additional private support.

  • I ask for at least 24 hours notice for cancellations or rescheduling.

    Late cancellations or missed appointments are subject to a fee.

  • You may consider an evaluation if your child:

    • Is difficult to understand

    • Is not meeting speech or language milestones

    • Has trouble following directions

    • Has difficulty communicating wants/needs

    • Struggles with social communication

    If you’re unsure, we’re happy to discuss your concerns and guide you.
