About Us

Our Logo's Meaning

Branching Tree Therapy, LLC believes that each child requires crucial foundational language skills (roots) that are shaped (hand) by an individualized plan (branch) in order to promote the child's voice through the various modalities (leaves and speaking bubbles) offered by our clinicians.

Our therapists work alongside a variety of cultural backgrounds, diagnosis, and severities. Each Individualized Family Service Plan (IFSP) is closely observed and implemented according to the child and family's needs and concerns.

About Us

Branching Tree Therapy, LLC was founded by a speech-language pathologist eager to promote greater family involvement and training into early intervention services, along with multi-cultural speech-language services to their families. Our clinic shapes each child based on their needs and levels of performance, while continuously assessing through naturalistic observations and dynamic assessment. Branching Tree Therapy, LLC contracts with Harbor Regional Center currently serving the areas of Artesia, Bellflower, Cerritos, parts of Carson, Hawaiian Gardens, Gardena, Lakewood, Lomita, Long Beach, Norwalk, and parts of Torrance.

Our Purpose

Branching Tree Therapy, LLC is an early intervention speech-language pathology provider for children ages 18 months-3 years old. Our therapists work alongside their child and families in their natural environments, such as their homes, in order to promote strong foundational speech-language skills necessary for everyday communication.

Additionally, our therapists provide parent training to ensure successful implementation of learnt skills to everyday routines and environments.

Verenice Meza

M.A. CCC-SLP, Owner

Hello World! I am a music driven speech-language therapist that enjoys learning nursery rhymes for fun. I am married and have a golden retriever puppy who require lots of attention. What will I do when I have kiddos of my own? Will I have enough attention for them all? I enjoy giving my undivided attention to the person who sits across from me. Most often, my attention goes towards little individuals 18 months to 36 months, whom also enjoy nursery rhymes. I spend my free time surrounded by family and friends and enjoy exploring the world around me, especially food.

Yazmin Martinez

Program Director

Hello, my name is Yazmin but everyone calls me Yaz. I am married and have a beautiful two-year old daughter who keeps me busy. Yes, I talk about her all day! The best part is that she's a mini version of me. I enjoy helping others and being part of new beginnings. I love living life to the fullest and enjoying the little things. I like singing, dancing, and making others smile. I love traveling because it gives me the opportunity to meet new people and learn about a different cultures.

Elizabeth Moreno

Speech-Language Pathologist Assistant

Hello, my name is Elizabeth and I am a Speech-Language Pathologist assistant. I love working with kiddos, especially toddlers. I am blessed with 3 wonderful kids and a loving husband. We enjoy camping trips and spending time together during our family movie nights. I always knew I wanted to work with kids, but I was not sure how. When my son was sent to the regional center for speech services, I was introduced to this amazing career. I knew exactly where I was meant to be. My favorite part of my job is witnessing kids say their first words and watching them grow. I work under an amazing supervisor and as a dedicated team, we give our best to each child.
