WE WILL NEVER WAVER IN OUR COMMITMENT TO YOU

About Us.

  • Founded by SLPs, devoted to SLPs.
  • Practicing in school settings for 36+ years.
  • Local, personalized support by SLPs – no bureaucracy.
  • Professional excellence – rated 9.8 out of 10 in all areas by all administrators in 2023.
  • Long-term relationships with our therapists, and with our districts.
  • Full or part-time positions: from Clinical Fellow to retirees.

That’s It.

  • Not a national company or billing/placement service.
  • We’re speech pathologists, placing and supporting speech pathologists in our local community.

The Details.

  • Louise Valente, SLP- CCC, has 36 years of experience listening to specific descriptions of FT and PT district needs. As a speech-language pathologist herself with deep roots in our community, she personally chooses the best SLPs to fit school communities.
  • Annette Crotty, SLP – CCC, has 36 years of experience supporting our district partners, meeting personalized contractual, financial and insurance requirements with excellence.
  • Pacific Coast Speech Services was acquired by the Point Quest Group in January 2023. Louise and Annette will work with our Point Quest partners to add additional services soon (Occupational Therapy, Mental Health & Behavioral Heath). We are excited about these new developments!

Our Philosophy.

  • Our practice centers on providing evidence-based therapy; emphasizing the service of students with kindness and attention paid to individual needs. All factors affecting educational progress are considered and honored.
  • We seek speech pathologists who value inclusivity. When building our team, we look for a diverse range of clinician experiences to best support student needs.

Founder/Director  

After the first two absolutely outstanding candidates, I thought -she can’t be 3 for 3. I was wrong – they are all 4-5 star clinicians and we want all three!
