Been loving our experience so far here at Building Bridges Cumming! The entire staff has been…read morenothing short of lovely and inviting, and the new patient onboarding process was a breeze. Have to give a special shoutout to Alyssa because she always shows up with the best energy and enthusiasm for the day, and is also extremely encouraging for both my child and my husband and I. I love that she takes the time out of every visit to break things down for us in simple, easy to understand terms and shows us exactly what we should be working on at home as well. Even with all of the different patients and toys (which means exposure to a lot of germs), I always feel like the space and toys are kept super clean and I love that they make time between each patient's visit to wipe down and clean all surfaces and toys that were touched. I am excited to continue here!

** review for feeding and speech therapy**…read more When my three week old baby girl was referred to feeding therapy after two weeks of me knowing something was wrong and fearing bottle aversion Building Bridges wasted no time in getting us in the same week. Debbie at the front desk was so sweet on the phone when getting me set up and is always so friendly whenever we need help. We were paired with Jorri and she's incredible. When I say she saved me that's an understatement. I have postpartum anxiety and my baby struggling to eat was really triggering and Jorri was SO understanding and so helpful, literally answering my texts at all hours when I needed help outside of a session. Jorri brought in their in house craniosacral therapist who helped her confirm her suspected diagnosis of a posterior tongue tie. She and Stacy worked together and gave me the tools we needed to help my sweet girl eat comfortably. Jorri has continued to support me through all her stages and when she starts struggling to drink. Due to COVID I had a strong inclination that my sone would need speech therapy at two. When my son was referred for speech therapy, Building Bridges was my instant choice. Jorri is now working weekly with my son and he has come leaps and bounds. We have been with her a few months and I get comments from strangers on how great my son speaks! I could not be more proud or more grateful. I am hoping my daughter will pick up skills from my son as she learns to speak, but if she also needs speech therapy we will be headed right back to Building Bridges. If you are referred for therapy I highly recommend Building Bridges! I see how each of their therapist greet their patients and interact in the hall and they are all so sweet with the kids, while Jorri is my favorite I would trust any one of them with my babies.

If you care about your child's safety, and mental health DO NOT SEND YOUR CHILD. And DO NOT WORK…read moreTHERE Lacking professionalism Illegal business practices HIPAA violations, Improper documentation of incidents My time at Rightstart was deeply troubling and ultimately disappointing due to a series of serious ethical and legal violations that I witnessed and experienced firsthand. From the beginning, it became evident that the clinic did not consistently uphold the ethical standards required in behavioral health settings, particularly those outlined by HIPAA. There were repeated breaches of client confidentiality, including the mishandling of sensitive information and insufficient safeguards to protect client records. In addition, the clinic engaged in highly questionable billing practices, including providing services to children who were not covered by insurance and failing to obtain the necessary authorizations. This not only violates ethical standards but could constitute insurance fraud. As an employee, I experienced wage withholding without explanation, including delays in paychecks and incomplete payments. When I attempted to address these issues professionally and requested my owed wages, I was met with hostility and ultimately wrongfully terminated. This retaliatory action followed my attempts to advocate not only for myself, but for the ethical integrity of the clinic. There were also instances of dual relationships and other boundary violations that are explicitly discouraged in mental health practice due to their potential to harm clients and staff alike. These situations created an unhealthy work environment and compromised the quality of care provided. Overall, I cannot recommend this clinic as an ethical or lawful place of employment. I have since taken steps to report these issues to the appropriate regulatory bodies and encourage others who have had similar experiences to do the same. Protecting clients and maintaining professional integrity in therapeutic environments must remain a top priority -- unfortunately, that was not the case at Rightstart.

Amazing ABA program!! My son is 2yo & was non-verbal when he started. He loves ALL his ABA…read moretherapists! I love that he doesn't get stuck with just 1 person bc that's been a challenge for him: learning to adapt and roll with the punches. We are trying to help him grow and be more independent so having a TEAM of trusted people for us rather than just 1 person is exactly what we needed to break his co-dependency habit. If one person is out - it doesn't break his heart bc he has so many loving therapists who he looks forward to seeing! Since attending Right Start's ABA, SPEECH, & OT program full time he has FLOURISHED. They take such great care of him and they met him right where he was at by first building that trust and rapport, and now he has taken off!! Not only is he verbal now, but he can count, identify colors, identify people, & use ASL to ask for what he needs. ALONSO COULDNT EVEN SAY "'MAMA" BEFORE WE STARTED They are miracle workers. He is in their care from 9am to 5pm & is so happy at drop off/pick up! Chanel is the head BCBA and she goes above and beyond!!! Carolyn & Shavere are his main ABA therapists and they take their time with Alonso and they pay attention to his every need. Natarra is his occupational therapist and she is the BEST one there - we LOVE her!!!! He's had a few Speech therapists but sees Ms Margaret & Vanessa often and Alonso enjoys his session with them.

Our therapist has been wonderful with our son and has truly worked hard to support him in so many ways. With continued support and patience at home, the care, guidance, and encouragement from their OT has made a real difference for our child. We're very thankful for the progress we've seen. I highly recommend Kid's Creek Therapy for occupational therapy. The therapists, customer service, and overall environment have all been great. One thing to note--scheduling can be limited, so it may take some time to get started. That said, it's a reflection of how in-demand they are, and it didn't take away from our experience. Grateful for the owner, staff, and therapists. Most importantly, my son loves coming here--and that means everything to us.

My nine year old granddaughter, Catherine, was diagnosed with expressive/receptive language…read moredisorder when she was in first grade. Currently, she's receiving speech and occupational therapy from Kidz Speak. Her speech therapist is "Ms. Trish" Sumner and her OT is "Ms. Lindsey" Giles; both therapists are licensed professionals, with the academics and experience needed to help your child. Catherine loves them and is always excited to go to her appointments; she thinks she's playing. I've sat in on speech and OT sessions, and it amazes me how the therapists work to help Catherine improve on her language skills as well as her fine motor skills. Even if your child is receiving services through the school system, it is not enough. I HIGHLY recommend Kidz Speak. The one-on-one attention your child will receive is critical to helping them reach their fullest potential. I wish your and your child the best.

My nephew was recently diagnosed with being on the autism spectrum. We were clueless as to what to…read moredo. He needed therapy services; however, we didn't know where to begin, where to go, who was good, would we be able to afford it, etc. On the day of his diagnosis, his psychologist told me about Therapyland. Therapyland has only been open for just over a year. However, it's already one of the best facilities in GA from which anyone could ever hope to receive help. Therapyland is a 12,000 sq ft facility that offers pediatric developmental services such as speech therapy, occupational therapy, physical therapy, and applied behavioral analysis therapy. The owner, Thane, meets with every interested parent. He is very patient and because his daughter is also autistic, understands exactly what parents of diagnosed children are experiencing. He then takes you on a tour of the facility, which is nothing short of amazing! You MUST check out the sensory room! You'll wish you could have one in your home, guaranteed! Also, check out the parent lounge. It was created just for parents to have a quiet place to relax or get some work done! All of his staff members and therapists are extremely knowledgeable and personable. Irma, the administrative assistant, is very personable and a joy to communicate with. Angie, the billing manager, is patient, understanding, and a joy to work with (unlike many other medical billing offices I've encountered). Cheri, the COO and scheduler, works hard to accommodate scheduling needs of parents. My nephew's BCBA, Catherine J. is amazing and makes it her personal goal to see that the children under her care succeed. The hosts of therapists that my nephew and I have encountered (many of which share the same name haha) the Kellys, Courtneys, Markus, Summer, Clare, and even the ones I've only seen on occasion as they speak with other parents in the lobby, are all amazing as professionals and as individuals. In case you can't tell, I can't say ENOUGH amazing things about this facility. Therapyland offers a 1:1 ratio. Each child is assigned his/her very own therapist for the time that he/she is receiving services at Therapyland. My nephew (who is usually apprehensive around strangers and have major separation anxiety) quickly became acclimated to not only his own personal therapists but the other therapists that work closely around him. His therapists not only update me with what my nephew learned that day and any improvements shown, they also follow up with emailed (and very detailed) reports. There's also a system that parents can access for ABA therapy where the skills being taught are tracked via charts and graphs! I can't say enough wonderful things about Therapyland and it's staff. I love the carnival theme of the office. I go to Therapyland every day for my nephew and I get to see the same parents and children each day. Everyone has nothing but great things to say and the children love it! If your child has recently been diagnosed with autism or is otherwise in need of speech, occupational, physical, or ABA therapy, I implore you to check out Therapyland. Just call, speak to Thane, make an appointment to take the tour... you have nothing to lose and you WILL NOT regret it! Enrolling my nephew there was the best decision I could have made for my nephew. He deserves the best and Therapyland is it! As a final note, I recently met with a doctor at the Marcus Autism Center, even she was impressed with what Therapyland had to offer. Get in on this amazing facility while it's still up and coming. Later, when the word really gets out (and it will), you'll be thankful you got in early!

I was so upset this happened and they ou let me knoe at the end of the day. the bcba accidentally added me to an email that she asked the boss (owner wife) what she should say to me before I saw my child's injury. you would have thought they would have reached out to apologize or address my concern. they didn't even respond or care. .my bill was always in the thousands, double billed etc. I was even advised by the owner to get the insurance he likes with a insurancr broker he knows after paying him a fee of 85.00. the professional thing would have been to just tell me the name of the anthem plan so I can buy it for free under the marketplace but no you pay him a referral fee to help you get a plan he likes that they can charge unlimited aba of which your child may not need. they always request more hours than needed as the charge nearly 1600 a DAY. there is no education they are doing that is special. he will even dissuade you from putting your cild in school so he can make over 150k a year from your insurance. he is a sales man and couldn't care less about the progress of your child. get your child in home aba. they generalize it better as being in a center is slower progress if ANY. then put them in prek. my child is not only talking at nearly age level but also potty trained in less than 3months of leaving that place. watch your tab!!! they will bill EVERYTHING. they wanted me to pay 15 for a bookbag the said broke a clear cheap bookbag..when I asked how does a bookbag break and and refused they were upset. For 1:1 care my child being injured was terrible. her eye was red. I can post a picture. also SPEECH was a joke.. they were playing YouTube through ever session i attended and had the nervr to bill 245 for a session for 30 minutes. typical places charge 90.
