About Sunstone

A boutique practice, built on relationships.

Sunstone Speech and Language was founded to create a pediatric speech and language practice that prioritizes meaningful relationships, individualized care, and clinical excellence. We’re intentionally designed as a boutique clinic rather than a high-volume therapy center—so every family gets direct access to an experienced clinician, not a rotating roster of providers.

Founder Kimberly Adames, M.S., CCC-SLP, brings specialized clinical experience from both private practice and public education, giving her a wide-angle view of how children communicate across settings. As a certified bilingual speech-language pathologist, she provides comprehensive evaluations and therapy in both English and Spanish—without relying on interpreters—for more accurate assessment and stronger relationships with multilingual families.

“Rather than simply improving speech, we seek to build confident communicators who are empowered to express themselves, connect with others, and reach their fullest potential.”

Our Mission

More than words.

We exist to help children confidently express themselves across every means of communication—speech, receptive language, expressive language, and social skills—through evidence-based care that honors each child’s individuality.

Individualized Care

Therapy plans are built around each child’s goals, with the flexibility to adjust as progress unfolds—never a one-size-fits-all program.

Evidence-Based Practice

Every evaluation and treatment plan is grounded in clinical excellence, current research, and measurable progress toward real communication goals.

Bilingual, Culturally Responsive

Comprehensive evaluations and therapy delivered directly in English and Spanish, honoring the language and culture of every family we serve.
