Samvaad Centre for Speech Therapy, Domlur

We have been associated with Samvaad and Radhika madam since 2010. Our son Shreyas was around 2 years 7 months when he was diagnosed with ASD and required speech therapy. Our doctor recommended Dr. Radhika and told us to start speech therapy for Shreyas. We started taking ABA therapy (physical) from Samvaad twice a week .

He slowly started speaking words, crying reduced and with their dedicated therapists, and the specific madam’s guidance he started improving. As speech improved, his tantrums reduced. Madam also told us to put him in any individual sport. Running has played an important factor in his life. He became calmer, focus was better. Therapy will not make wonders overnight. We have to continue, persevere and trust the people, therapists. We are thankful to Suchitha madam for her therapy sessions.We went for therapy for around 5 years and slowly switched to online mode occasionally post Covid.At every stage, we have consulted Radhika madam for behaviour issues. Her strategies were very helpful in managing his behaviour and made our lives easy. We did not go to multiple centres but stuck to Samvaad as we were able to see results.

Jaya, the secretary, would promptly arrange online appointments as per our convenience. Shreyas is 18 years old now, finished 12th through NIOS and pursuing some vocational training; he can communicate his needs well, talks to people,has opened up but still has a long way to go. People were able to see his improvement and they come and tell us.We still seek her guidance as her strategies help in coping with his issues.Radhika madam has helped us in every stage- be it echolalia, better communication, reinforcement, managing his anger etc. We are thankful and grateful to her. We continue to seek her support in making Shreyas more confident and independent .

We would recommend Samvaad for ABA, speech therapy to all parents whose kids need therapy for ASD or speech delay.

We have been taking online ABA therapy sessions for the past six months with Radhika Poovayya and Niharika for our 5-year-old son, and the change we have seen has been truly heart-touching. When we started, he struggled to communicate his needs and could only say a few words with a lot of inconsistency. Today, he is able to express himself so much more clearly and confidently. Seeing him ask for what he wants and communicate with us has been one of the happiest moments of our journey.

His attention span has also transformed — from not being able to sit for even five minutes to now focusing on activities for 30–45 minutes. We never imagined we would reach this stage so soon, and it fills us with so much hope for his future.

What makes this journey even more special is the way Radhika and Niharika support us. They explain everything with such patience and kindness. They guide us without any judgment and make sure we feel supported every step of the way. Their dedication is beyond words, and we feel truly blessed to have them helping our son.

We are deeply grateful for everything they have done, and we wholeheartedly recommend their ABA therapy services to any family seeking support and hope.

Hi, I am 28 years old and have stammering problem from my childhood.I visited Samvaad Speech & ABA Therapy centre. They conducted thorough assessments to identify specific challenges and customized a comprehensive plan. My speech therapist demonstrated exceptional professionalism and a genuine commitment to my progress. Each session was thoughtfully structured, combining a variety of exercises that targeted my speech goals.I appreciate the therapist's dedication to tracking progress and setting realistic milestones. This individualized approach significantly contributed to the noticeable improvements I experienced in my speech and communication abilities.In summary, my experience with this speech therapist was nothing short of excellent. I highly recommend this center to anyone seeking personalized and effective speech therapy.

Our pediatrician suggested us to see a speech therapist cause my son wasn’t talking at all until 2 years old. (My son exposed to multiple languages-Turkish mother, french father and English speaking school)Then we found SAMVAAD-Speech therapy center. Leo has always felt very welcomed at Samvaad Therapy Services. Ms Radhika Poovayya did a fabulous job connecting with my son and making learning a fun experience! My son’s speech has improved dramatically since working with Ms Radhika Poovayya is always sweet, caring, understanding *** **** ************** I highly recommend her and the therapy center.

Our son, Raunak Biswas, had ADHD issues and he could not communicate beyond monosyllables most of the time even at the age of 4 as he was very hyperactive. We got to know about Dr Radhika Poovayya through Cloud Nine and we visited her Domlur clinic. She heard our issues patiently and explained the real issue and the way to address the situation. Thereafter, we began the therapy sessions with her team and she also spent time whenever possible to monitor progress. We started seeing results in 1 month itself and marked improvement in 6-8 months time frame. Though this was 8 years back, both my wife and I vividly recall what we went through then . Thanks to Dr Poovayya and her team for all the time and effort spent. We highly recommend Dr Poovayya and her team.

Hi,

My 7 year old son has been getting treatment from Dr. Radhika's Samwaad clinic for 6 months now. We can see lots of improvement in his verbal skills. He is able to communicate with others as his vocabulary has improved now. I really liked Dr. Radhika and her team's approach towards my son and the way they created a plan for him. They really understand my son's needs and what he needs to improve. His behaviour also improved a lot. Since his treatment is still going on, I really hope with her continuous hard work my son will be able to communicate with others very soon.

Really want to thank Dr. Radhika and team for their help!!

Thanks

Mahesh

My son was six years old when we first learned about ASD, which was completely new to us and unheard of. After some research, we met a few therapists and attended several months of sessions, but the outcome was not satisfactory. We gave up for almost two years. Then, during further research, we found Samvaad. We decided to give it one more try, and the experience has been very positive. What I appreciate most is the personalized program tailored to my child's needs. I sincerely want to thank Radhika Poovayya Mam 🙏 for her insights and for creating a detailed roadmap for my son. Thank you 🙏

We approached Samvaad for speech delay of our 4 yr old daughter. The whole team under the able guidance of Radhika mam made us really comfortable with the whole process. They promised they would show progress in 3 months, and they delivered on that promise. Our daughter is able to communicate her thoughts and needs in spoken language. ABA therapy has done wonders and it is also so kid friendly, she enjoys her time during therapy and stills comes out learning new words and skills. I really like the way they handle the kids, even when they throw tantrums, they never really pressurise the kids nor do they allow parents to do so. They also let the parents to be part of sessions and encourage them to practice at home also. **** ****** **** ** **** *** **** *** **** ******** ** *** *****

Samvaad is a ray of hope for all the parents who are struggling with their children’s autism and communication difficulties. Within a span of 2 months only my 3 YO non verbal son started understanding what we try to tell him and his receptive language elevated suddenly which didn’t happen with any other place. The therapists are well qualified and thoroughly trained under the supervision of Radhika Ma’am and clears the doubts instantly. I strongly recommend this place for ABA cum speech therapy as early intervention at Samvaad as only the right therapy works for the kids struggling with neurodivergence.

We are taking online ABA therapy with Nafila mam under the guidance of Radhika Poovayya mam. It's been three months now and our 5 year old son has improved significantly. He is able to ask for his needs and we as parents have learnt to handle the situation in right manner.

The guidance we got has helped us a lot to teach good behavior to our son and we hope it improves with all the strategies that therapists ask us to apply and wish to see our son thriving. Thank you Nafila mam for all the guidance.
