Services and Availability
Please contact us at Justin@fullpotentialspeech.com or (951) 395-4234 to request more information and/or to schedule an appointment. Full Potential Speech offers individual speech and language therapy and evaluations in-center in Temecula, Murrieta and Vista locations, or via telehealth. We serve pediatric clients. Our practitioners are trained in providing clinical services including: speech and language assessment and treatment, treatment for autism, fluency, social language and development, childhood speech and language disorders, auditory processing disorders, augmentative and alternative communication, tongue thrust, lisps, childhood apraxia of speech, articulation, and developmental delay.
Articulation & Phonological Therapy
Articulation approaches target each sound deviation and are often selected by the clinician when the child's errors are considered to be motor-based; the aim is to correct production of the target sound(s). Phonological approaches target a group of sounds with similar error patterns, although the actual treatment of exemplars of the error pattern may target individual sounds. Phonological approaches are often selected in an effort to help the child internalize phonological rules and generalize these rules to other sounds within the pattern (e.g., final consonant deletion, cluster reduction).
Play-Based Approaches
Play-based therapy is beneficial because it helps children:
Maintain increased attention towards objects and others
Improve cognitive abilities
Improve participation in therapy through fun activities
Build positive adult-child interactions
Socialize with peers
Progress with their speech and language goals

"We had such a wonderful experience with Full Potential Speech! My son is a tough cookie to motivate and is a busy body, but Sandra was so kind, patient and accommodating to him and his needs. She truly loves her practice and clients and it is absolutely evident. My son exited services a year and a half ago and still asks regularly if we can "go to speech!" "
Brandee V.
"We love Full Potential and Miss Sandra! My son (4) has been working with Sandra for a few years and doing so well. He has autism and is non verbal, but has made great progress with verbal and non verbal communication (AAC)
My daughter (1 1/2) recently started working Miss Wenna and she's been great to work with also! After a few months my daughter is making more sounds, working on correctly pronouncing words and trying to say complete words. We've been working on the tools that Wenna has given us to do at home.
We couldn't be happier!"
Alex S.
"The entire team at Full Potential Speech shares Sandra's commitment to excellence. Each therapist we've encountered has been warm, knowledgeable, and professional, and their collaborative approach fosters a nurturing environment where children can thrive. They not only work tirelessly to help their clients reach their goals but also genuinely celebrate each milestone along the way."
